Pest Control Stoke-on-Trent
We’re open and ready
Pest Challenges in the Area
Across the six towns, from Burslem and Tunstall in the north to Longton and Fenton in the south, the housing runs from Victorian terraces to newer suburban builds, each with its own weak points. Shared bin areas, a busy food and drink scene around Hanley, and older industrial and pottery buildings create warmth, shelter and feeding routes that pests exploit. Seasonal insect activity and bird pressure on commercial roofs add to the picture. EcoCare begins every treatment with a thorough site inspection, delivering the tailored pest control in Stoke-on-Trent that properties need instead of relying on a generic solution.

Bird Control
Pigeons, gulls and sparrows crowd onto rooftops, ledges and yards around the busier shopping and hospitality areas, fouling surfaces and blocking guttering. EcoCare installs humane netting, wire and spike systems that move birds on without harm, each one fitted to the building and the scale of the problem.
Your Protection Plan:
House Sparrows Control
Rodent Control
Rats, mice and squirrels find easy footholds in the older terraced stock, drains and outbuildings common throughout the region. We follow the signs to every entry point, apply safe baiting and trapping, then proof the property so rodents cannot return. All work is child-safe and pet-safe and supported by follow-up checks.
Our Approach:
Crawling Insect Control
Cockroaches, bed bugs, ants, fleas and silverfish thrive in shared housing, kitchens and warm service areas, threatening both hygiene and comfort. Our technicians clear crawling insects at every stage of life with careful, low-disruption treatments suited to sensitive spaces, and leave prevention advice to keep them from coming back.
We address crawling insects by:
Flying Insect Control
Warmer weather brings wasps, hornets, moths and flies into homes and workplaces, with nests appearing in lofts, eaves and outbuildings. EcoCare removes nests and manages flying insects using non-toxic products and full safety measures, working quickly to limit any disruption.
We address flying insects by:
Hornet Nest Removal
Our certified team moves quickly and works eco-consciously, opening with a full inspection and finishing with focused treatment and honest prevention advice. Every job is aimed at the cause of the infestation, so the outcome holds rather than fading in a few weeks.
Pigeon Control
Pigeons colonise flat roofs, warehouse ledges and shared courtyards across the towns, and the mess they leave brings both damage and health risks. EcoCare relies on humane exclusion, from netting and wire to anti-roost spikes, keeping premises clear while respecting wildlife law.
Seagull Control
Inland gull numbers have grown, and nesting birds can block drains, tear at roofing and turn territorial in spring. We fit low-profile deterrents that safeguard commercial and domestic roofs without causing the birds any harm.
Mice Control
Mice exploit the tiniest openings in period housing, storerooms and food outlets, multiplying rapidly once settled. Our service maps every route in, uses safe non-toxic baiting and proofs the gaps so the infestation does not simply rebuild.
Rat Control
Rats spread through shared drainage and party walls, gnawing at fabric and contaminating as they move. EcoCare tackles them with professional trapping, measured baiting and solid proofing, clearing the problem and shutting off the way back.
Bed Bug Control
Bed bugs pass easily between shared lets, guest houses and student rooms, tucking into mattress seams and skirting. Our heat and certified treatments reach eggs and adults alike, applied quietly and methodically to keep disruption low.
Silverfish Control
Silverfish gather in damp kitchens, bathrooms and cellars where ventilation is poor, feeding on paper and natural fibres. We treat their nesting spots with safe, non-invasive methods and advise on the damp control that discourages them for good.
Wasp Nest Removal
A wasp nest by a door, in a roof space or in a shed is a real risk that should not be tackled alone. Our technicians clear nests fast with non-toxic products and full protective gear, keeping families, pets and passers-by safe.
Moth Control
Clothes and carpet moths do slow, costly harm to fabrics, flooring and stored items. EcoCare traces the source, removes eggs and larvae, and applies safe treatments along with guidance to shield vulnerable materials afterwards.
Hornet Control
Hornets are quick to defend a nest and dangerous close to homes and gardens. Our BPCA-certified team removes nests promptly using professional-grade tools and eco-friendly techniques, then proofs the surroundings against a return.
Our Step-by-Step Treatment
EcoCare uses a reliable six-stage method that brings safe, lasting control to properties throughout the region. Each visit begins with a thorough inspection and finishes with practical guidance, settling the issue at its root instead of masking it.
1. Detailed Property Inspection
We open every job with a complete inspection, examining entry points, nesting areas, food sources and traces of activity across the building. This gives a clear read on the infestation before treatment, so the work stays accurate and efficient.
2. Customised Treatment Plan
Next, we build a plan around the pest, the type of building and the level of activity uncovered. A rat problem in an old terrace and a cockroach issue in a cafe need different handling, and each receives the safest, most suitable method.
3. Active Pest Removal
Our technicians deliver the treatment with proven, non-toxic techniques chosen to fit the pest and the environment. From baiting to heat work, every step is carried out by certified staff to UK safety standards for quick, dependable results.
4. Rodent-Proofing Entry Points
With the pests cleared, we close the gaps that allowed them in, fitting mesh, sealant and barriers to block their usual paths. This guards the property against re-entry and reduces the chance of repeat visits.
5. Follow-up and Monitoring Visits
We arrange return visits to check the infestation has gone, and nothing new has taken hold. For heavier cases, we fine-tune the approach, giving owners real assurance the problem is under control.
6. Expert Prevention Advice
Every visit closes with tailored advice on waste, storage, airflow and upkeep that keeps pests at bay. It is guidance designed to protect the property long after our work is finished.
Who We Support Locally
From family homes and private landlords to student lets, independent shops, restaurants, offices and industrial units, we provide inspections, full treatments and preventive care across the board. Each service is shaped to suit the property and the demands of its sector.

Based on 523 reviews
Which areas of Stoke-on-Trent does EcoCare cover?
We cover all six towns and the surrounding areas, including Tunstall, Burslem, Hanley, Fenton and Longton. If you are not certain we reach your part of the city, just ask, and we will confirm.
How soon can you provide pest control in Stoke-on-Trent?
With round-the-clock availability, we aim to visit as promptly as possible and give a realistic time when you make contact. We prioritise pest control in Stoke-on-Trent for urgent jobs such as wasp nests wherever we can.
Do the former pottery and industrial buildings attract pests?
They can. Old kilns, works and warehouses across the region provide shelter and access that rodents and birds take advantage of, so we tailor treatments to these larger, older structures.
Which pests are most active across the six towns?
Rats, mice and wasps generate most local callouts, with ants, bed bugs and birds close behind. Activity shifts with the seasons, so we treat and advise based on what we find at each property.
Do you cover both the town centres and the outlying estates?
Yes. From the busy centre of Hanley to the newer estates on the fringes, our technicians work across the full spread of the city and its surrounding villages.
Does the area's damp, older housing raise the risk of certain pests?
It can. Damp in older terraces and cellars encourages silverfish, cockroaches and other moisture-loving insects, so our treatments often pair pest control with practical advice on ventilation and damp.
Do you treat gardens and outdoor areas as well as inside?
Yes. Many pests move between outdoor spaces and the building, so treatment often covers gardens, yards, outbuildings and access points as well as interior rooms.
How do you keep disruption to a minimum during a visit?
We work discreetly, schedule around homes and businesses where we can, and use low-disruption methods. The aim is to resolve the problem with as little interference to your day as possible.
