Rat Control in Southampton
Rats are one of the most common pest problems affecting homes and businesses in Southampton, particularly during colder months when rodents move indoors for warmth and food. We frequently deal with rat activity in lofts, kitchens, garages, bin areas and drain access points throughout the city.
Common signs of rats include scratching or movement noises at night, droppings in cupboards or garages, gnawed food packaging, tunnels in gardens, and grease marks along walls and skirting boards. Rats can contaminate food preparation areas, damage insulation, and chew wiring and pipework if left untreated.
Our rat control service in Southampton focuses on identifying entry points, removing active infestations and reducing the risk of rats returning. We use professional methods that are safe, discreet and effective for residential and commercial properties.
For more detailed information, see our rodent control service or read our guide on the best way to get rid of rats. You may also find our article on why rodents move indoors in autumn helpful.

EXCELLENT Based on 84 reviews Posted on Jon Whitley12 March 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Terri and Dave were really great. We actually didn't end up having the issue we thought we might have...but they came out, assessed our house for free and reassured us that no pest control was needed at present. If we do end up needing pest control in the future - we'll certainly be giving them another bell.Posted on IAN BRIDGES20 February 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Terri carried out carpet moth treatment. She was helpful and informative throughout and was clear about the process and what was involved. She gave a fair price turned up on time and was thorough with no problems. Recommended.Posted on POLYHOSE UK [Emergency Email]18 February 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve worked with Terri (and Dave) at Eradicontrol for probably over 10 years now, and we honestly couldn’t recommend them more highly. As a fellow Christchurch business, having someone so consistently reliable, knowledgeable and effective on hand has been invaluable. Over the years they’ve helped us deal with everything from rats to wasps and bees, always responding promptly and handling each situation with professionalism and expertise. Terri’s depth of knowledge and calm, practical approach give real peace of mind, and the results speak for themselves every time. If you’re looking for a pest control company you can truly depend on, Eradicontrol is the one to call. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Posted on martin budge12 February 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
