Pest Control Across Tyne and Wear
Sunderland tops Tyne and Wear for pest callouts, with 2,341 rat reports recorded, followed by Newcastle with 1,659 callouts. Gateshead handled 593 reports while North Tyneside dealt with 615. Newcastle City Council provides treatment with up to four visits per case, laying poison or traps as needed.
The River Tyne running through the heart of the conurbation supports a large rat population along its banks. Properties in Gateshead, Newcastle and North Shields close to the river are particularly vulnerable. North Tyneside Council charges 40 pounds per treatment for private properties, while council tenants have the cost included in their rent.
The redevelopment of riverside areas in both Newcastle and Gateshead has disturbed established rodent populations, and rats only need a gap of 15mm to gain entry to a building. The coastal areas of South Shields, Whitley Bay and Tynemouth deal with seagull problems during nesting season.
Newcastle’s busy nightlife and restaurant scene, particularly in the city centre and Jesmond, generates demand for commercial pest control. JG Pest Control covers all of Tyne and Wear and offers faster response than council waiting lists.
