Mouse & Rat Control

Guaranteed Mice Extermination in Uxbridge

We are based in Uxbridge, so a mouse problem in UB8, UB9 or UB10 is a local job for us rather than a long drive. Every treatment we carry out is backed by a written guarantee.

Mice Pest Control works out of Andrews House on Wallingford Road in Uxbridge. Mice are what we do, so when you call about scratching in the kitchen ceiling or droppings behind the cooker, you are speaking to a team that deals with the same problem several times a day in the same postcodes.

What the guarantee means

A guarantee is only worth anything if it is written down and the terms are clear. Ours is: we treat the property, we proof the entry points we find, and if mice return within the guarantee period we come back and deal with them at no further cost. The technician explains the period and what is covered before any work starts, and it is confirmed in writing afterwards.

The reason we can offer it is proofing. A company that only baits has no control over reinfestation, because the way in is still open. We seal the route, so the guarantee is a statement about the work rather than a sales line.

How a treatment runs

  • Survey. The technician finds the harbourage and the entry points, using droppings, smear marks and gnawing to follow the runs back rather than guessing.
  • Treatment. A plan suited to the property, using tamper-resistant bait stations, break-back trapping or a combination. Trapping is often the right call in homes with small children, pets or a food business on site.
  • Proofing. Entry points sealed with stainless steel wool, rodent mesh, metal plate and mortar. Foam and sealant on their own do not stop a mouse.
  • Follow-up. A return visit to confirm the activity has stopped and to clear anything left behind.

Uxbridge properties and why mice get in

Uxbridge has a wide mix of housing: 1930s semis around Hillingdon Road and Cowley, Victorian and Edwardian terraces closer to the town centre, post-war estates, and a lot of student and rental accommodation around Brunel and the town. Older properties tend to have suspended timber floors and open cavities, so once a mouse is under the floor it can move around the whole ground level and into a neighbour's house without ever going outside. Flat conversions have their own weakness: service runs for gas, waste and cabling that were opened up during the conversion and never sealed.

Booking

A free survey is available on request, and we can often attend same day or next day within Uxbridge. We are family run and fully insured, our technicians hold the RSPH (BPCA) Level 2 qualification, and we are rated 5.0 out of 5 on Google. If you want proofing across the whole property rather than the active entry points alone, ask about super-proofing.

Frequently asked questions

What exactly does the guarantee cover?
If mice return to the treated property within the guarantee period, we come back and deal with them at no further cost. The technician sets out the period and the terms before work starts and confirms them in writing afterwards, so there is nothing to argue about later.
How quickly can you get to a property in Uxbridge?
We are based in Uxbridge, so same-day or next-day appointments are often available in UB8, UB9 and UB10. Call as early in the day as you can, since mice breed quickly and a small problem left for a fortnight is a considerably bigger one.
Do you use poison, or traps?
Both, depending on the property. Tamper-resistant bait stations are effective and secure, but in homes with small children or pets, and in food premises, break-back trapping is often the better choice. The technician recommends an approach and explains why before anything is placed.
How much does mice extermination in Uxbridge cost?
It depends on the size of the property, the extent of the infestation and how much proofing is needed, so we quote after the survey rather than over the phone. The survey is free on request and the price is confirmed before any work is carried out.
Will one visit be enough?
A straightforward infestation caught early sometimes clears in a single treatment plus proofing, but a programme of two or three visits is more typical. Mice breed fast enough that a follow-up is how you confirm the problem is genuinely finished rather than just quieter.
Can you deal with mice in a flat where the neighbours have them too?
Yes, and it is a common situation in converted properties. Mice travel between flats through shared floor and wall voids, so we proof the internal routes into your flat as well as the external ones. Where the source is clearly a communal area we will tell you, so it can be raised with the freeholder or managing agent.
