What is pest proofing in London and why is it important?

kedofbruce
Pest proofing in London refers to the process of preventing rodents, insects, and other pests from entering or nesting inside properties. Due to London’s dense housing, older buildings, and extensive underground infrastructure, pests such as rats, mice, cockroaches, and pigeons are common problems. Pest proofing focuses on sealing entry points, repairing structural gaps, installing barriers, and improving hygiene conditions. Unlike reactive pest control, pest proofing is a proactive approach that stops infestations before they begin. This is especially important for homes, restaurants, offices, and rental properties where pest issues can lead to health risks, legal complications, and reputational damage. Effective pest proofing in London helps maintain hygiene, protects property value, and reduces long-term pest control costs.
