A market town with over 500 listed buildings, a working canal, and a brewery in the middle of it, Devizes throws up a real mix of pest problems. We cover all of it, from cottages near the Market Place to pubs supplied by Wadworth’s shire horses.
The town has been a market centre since medieval times, and that long history means pest control here often means working carefully around original features rather than treating every building the same way. Every job starts with a proper inspection, not a guess, and every visit ends with a written report.
Whether it is rats near the canal, a wasp nest in a beer garden, or squirrels coming in from the edge of town, we have dealt with it in Devizes before. You speak directly to a trained technician, not a call centre, and we use environmentally friendly methods where we can.
Rats near the canal or on farmland at the edge of town are a regular call out in Devizes, and Caen Hill in particular, where the ground stays damp for longer, tends to see more activity than drier parts of town. Older buildings, some centuries old, often have gaps around stonework that give rats an easy way in. Don’t wait for it to get worse. Our rat control service deals with the problem and helps stop it coming back.
A single mouse in the kitchen rarely stays a single mouse for long. Cold weather sends them looking for shelter, and older Devizes properties near the Market Place and canal-side cottages alike offer plenty of gaps around skirting and pipework. Searches for mouse control jump sharply every October, right when this shift indoors happens. Our mouse control service clears the current problem and helps proof against the next one.
A wasp nest in a garden shed, an old chimney, or a roof void near Hillworth Park might look small in June, but by late summer it can hold thousands of wasps. Pub gardens and beer gardens across the town are a common spot too, especially once the warmer weather brings more people outside. Leaving it alone rarely makes it go away on its own. Our wasp nest removal service deals with it safely, so you don’t have to get close.
Devizes sits on the edge of the North Wessex Downs, and grey squirrels from the surrounding countryside regularly find their way into loft spaces, particularly on properties backing onto open ground or mature gardens. Properties near Hillworth Park or on the edge of town, closer to open countryside, tend to see this more often than those right in the centre. Once in, they chew through insulation, wiring and roof timbers. Our squirrel removal service deals with both the animal and the damage it leaves behind.
Wadworth Brewery has been brewing in Devizes since 1875, and the town’s pubs, many of them still supplied by the brewery’s shire horses, are part of what makes the place distinctive. Food and drink premises, whether a brewery, a pub kitchen, or a smaller producer at the monthly Farmers’ Market, all have their own hygiene standards to meet, and a pest problem here is a compliance issue as much as anything else. Devizes also hosts a Food & Drink Festival every September, which means the town’s food and drink businesses are under extra scrutiny at exactly the time of year rodent activity tends to pick up.
We work with pubs, breweries and food producers across Devizes on one off call outs and ongoing pest management contracts, and provide a written report after each visit to support hygiene inspections and due diligence records.
When you call, you speak directly to a trained technician, not a call centre, and we use environmentally friendly methods where we can. Our technicians are trained across the full range of pests found in and around Devizes, so whether the job is a rodent problem in a pub cellar or a wasp nest in a beer garden, you are dealing with one team rather than being passed between specialists.
As well as Devizes itself, we cover the nearby towns of Calne and Pewsey. We also cover surrounding villages such as Rowde, Bromham, Potterne and Market Lavington on request. We treat both domestic and commercial addresses across this whole area, so a call out to a pub or shop gets the same response as a call out to a house.

Do you cover villages around Devizes, like Rowde or Potterne? Yes, alongside Devizes itself we cover villages including Rowde, Bromham, Potterne and Market Lavington on request, as well as the nearby towns of Calne and Pewsey.
Can you provide pest control for pubs and food businesses? Yes, we work with pubs, breweries and food producers across Devizes, on one off call outs and ongoing pest management contracts, and can provide written reports to support hygiene inspections.
Do wasps tend to nest near beer gardens and pub outdoor spaces? Yes, food and drink left out over summer, plus plenty of wooden fencing and sheds, make pub gardens across Devizes a common spot for wasp activity.
Do older buildings near the Market Place need different treatment? Often, yes. With over 500 listed buildings in Devizes, period properties usually need more attention to original stonework and old timber, while newer builds are more likely to have gaps around modern cavity walls instead.
