Rats and mice in Saltaire

Saltaire’s stone terraces were built close together between the railway, the Leeds & Liverpool Canal and the River Aire, with Roberts Park across the river. That mix of water, towpaths, riverbanks and parkland gives rats food, water and cover close to homes. In older stone houses, gaps around pipes, air bricks, floor voids and doors give mice an easy way in, especially in autumn and winter.

We cover the whole village and its edges, from the Shipley side of Saltaire to the Baildon side of the river and along the canal towards Hirst Wood.

Signs to look for

  • Droppings in kitchen units, under-stairs cupboards or the loft
  • Scratching or scurrying in ceilings, walls or under floors at night
  • Gnaw marks on food, skirting boards or cables
  • Burrows or runs in back gardens, under sheds or near the canal and river

How we work

We inspect inside and out, find out whether you have rats or mice and how they are getting in, and explain what we have found. We agree a plan using traps and, only where it is justified, tamper-resistant bait stations, following CRRU UK stewardship guidance. We come back for follow-up visits, recommend proofing that suits older stone buildings, and remove bait once it is no longer needed. If you live in the conservation area, check with the council before making any changes to the outside of your home.

It can be. Rats often live along waterways and move into nearby gardens and buildings looking for food and shelter. We inspect your property, find how they are getting in, and agree a plan to deal with them and help stop them coming back.

Any rodenticide we use is kept inside locked, tamper-resistant bait stations and placed where children and pets cannot reach it. We will talk you through where everything is and any precautions to take.

Hoover thoroughly before our visit, including carpets, skirting boards and soft furnishings. After the treatment, do not hoover treated areas for at least 2 weeks so it can keep working.
