Common rodent problems in Selly Oak properties
In Selly Oak, we regularly attend student houses, HMOs, extensions and rear access properties where rodents move through kitchens, understairs voids, floor gaps, lofts and cavity walls. Frequent occupancy changes can also delay early detection of signs.
Typical signs include:
Droppings in kitchens and shared spaces
Often one of the first visible signs in HMOs and shared houses.
Scratching behind cupboards or ceilings
Can indicate mice in voids or rats moving through floor and wall gaps.

External access routes can increase the chance of repeated infestation.
Food contamination risk
Rodent activity around cupboards and prep areas needs dealing with quickly.
