Pest Control Across Shropshire
Shropshire saw 1,300 callouts for rats in a single year, highlighting the scale of the county’s rodent problem. Shropshire Council’s decision to remove dedicated pest control officers prompted warnings that residents would be hit hard, with one councillor raising concerns about the impact on vulnerable households.
Telford and Wrekin Council only treats rats and mice on public land, directing all household pest problems to private contractors. This means professional pest control is essential for homes and businesses across both Shrewsbury and Telford.
Shrewsbury’s historic town centre with its medieval and Tudor buildings provides ideal conditions for mice and rats, while the River Severn running through the town supports a healthy rat population along its banks. The rural areas of Shropshire - the Long Mynd, Clun Valley, Wenlock Edge and the Marches borderland - see agricultural pest problems including rats in farm buildings, moles on grassland and rabbits on crops.
JG Pest Control covers the whole of Shropshire and provides the consistent, reliable service that reduced council provision can no longer offer.
