Local pest control in Charlton
Most of Charlton is terraced streets, 1930s houses and new riverside flats. Charlton Park and the riverside bring rats and foxes into gardens, while new flats near the river see pigeons and gulls.
Charlton is in the Royal Borough of Greenwich. Jacobean Charlton House and The Valley, home of Charlton Athletic, are both here.

How quickly can you get to Charlton?
We aim to see urgent problems, such as rats indoors or a wasp nest by a door, as quickly as we can. Call us and we will tell you when we can attend.
Can you deal with squirrels or wasps at my house in Charlton?
Yes. We treat wasp nests, usually in one visit, and deal with grey squirrels in lofts legally and humanely before proofing the roof.
Why are there so many rats near the river in Charlton?
The river wall, docks and old drain runs give rats food, water and shelter. Most rat problems in riverside homes start in defective drains, so we check drains and fit rat blockers where suitable.
Who do I report rats to in Charlton?
If rats are coming from neglected land or a neighbouring property, you can report it to Royal Borough of Greenwich's environmental health team. For rats in your own home or business, we can inspect and treat.
Do you work with landlords and letting agents in Charlton?
Yes. We arrange access with tenants, treat and proof, and send a written report. See pest control for landlords.
