Fast, effective, and discreet pest removal for homes and businesses in Brandon (IP27), Weeting, and Santon Downham.
Brandon is a unique town with a unique environment. Situated in the heart of the Brecklands, surrounded by Thetford Forest, and bordered by the Little Ouse River, the town faces pest challenges that are different from anywhere else in Suffolk.
The light, sandy soil that defines the area is a haven for moles, which cause havoc in gardens from Thetford Road to Highfields. Meanwhile, the dense forestry surrounding the town means Grey Squirrels are a constant threat to loft spaces, particularly in properties backing onto the treeline. In the town centre, the older Victorian properties and riverside homes face persistent pressure from rats navigating the river banks and aging drainage systems.
Newmarket Pest Solutions is your genuinely local expert team. We are based just down the A11/A1065. We are not a national franchise; we are local specialists who understand the specific “Breckland” pest pressures facing Brandon residents.
Whether you have heard scratching in the walls of a bungalow on Robert Linge Crescent, discovered a wasp nest in a shed in Weeting, or found fresh molehills destroying your lawn, you need a rapid response. We offer same-day or next-day appointments to identify the root cause and resolve it permanently.
Our Specialist Services in Brandon
We specialise strictly in the core pests that cause the most damage to Suffolk and Norfolk border properties. We do not use “one size fits all” treatments. Instead, we use targeted, professional methods designed to solve specific infestations common in the Brandon (IP27) area.
Rat & Mouse Control (Riverside & Residential)
Rats and mice are the most frequent issue we deal with in Brandon.
The “River Effect”: Properties near the Little Ouse, such as those on Riverside Way or near the Maltings, are naturally at higher risk. Rats use the river banks as a highway and will quickly exploit any weakness in your home’s defences—such as a broken air brick or a gap under a conservatory—to find warmth and food.
Bungalow Lofts: Brandon has a high density of bungalows (e.g., on Edmund Road or Saffron Close). Rats and mice are excellent climbers and frequently access the large, continuous loft spaces of these properties via climbing plants or adjoining garages.
A rodent infestation is a serious threat. Rodents chew through electrical wiring, posing a significant fire risk, and can damage plastic water pipes, leading to costly hidden leaks.
Our Rat & Mouse Control service is a comprehensive solution:
Forensic Survey: We don’t just put down bait. We inspect your property thoroughly—checking drains, rooflines, and river banks—to find exactly how they are entering.
Targeted Treatment: We use professional-grade rodenticides and trapping regimes that are far more potent and effective than DIY store-bought products.
Proofing Strategy: Crucially, once the infestation is cleared, we advise on “proofing” work (blocking holes, capping drains, meshing air bricks) to ensure your home remains secure.
Mole Control Serives (The Breckland Specialist)
The soil in Brandon and Weeting is famous for being light and sandy. While this is great for drainage, it is absolutely perfect for moles. Moles can tunnel through sandy soil with incredible speed. A single mole can destroy a manicured lawn or paddock in days, pushing up unsightly hills and creating uneven ground that poses a trip hazard.
We provide traditional, effective Mole Control Services.
Expert Trapping: We use professional claw or barrel traps placed deep within the mole’s main tunnel network.
Chemical Free: We do not use gasses or poisons, which is better for the soil ecology and safer for pets.
Reliable: This is the most effective method for removing “problem moles” from residential gardens and commercial grounds.
Grey Squirrel Control
Living next to Thetford Forest means Grey Squirrels are a part of daily life in Brandon. While they seem harmless in the trees, they are highly destructive pests if they force their way into your loft. Squirrels are notorious for gnawing through fascia boards, tearing up fibreglass insulation for bedding, and chewing through structural roof timbers.
Our Squirrel Control service focuses on humane trapping and removal to clear your roof space before significant damage occurs.
Wasp Nest Removal
Wasp nests are a major summer problem in Brandon. The mix of older properties with accessible eaves and modern garden sheds provides countless nesting sites. A nest can grow rapidly from late spring, eventually containing thousands of wasps.
If you spot a nest, do not attempt to treat it yourself. Wasps can be incredibly aggressive when defending their colony.
We offer a fast, fixed-price Wasp Nest Removal service.
Specialist Access: We use high-reach equipment to inject professional insecticidal dust directly into the nest entrance.
Fast Results: The treatment usually neutralises the colony within a few hours.
Guaranteed: If the nest is still active 24 hours after our visit, we will return to treat it again for free.
Commercial Pest Management
Protecting Brandon’s Businesses
Brandon is a busy working town. For businesses on the Wimbledon Avenue Industrial Estate or London Road, pest control is not just about hygiene—it is about protecting your stock and your reputation.
We offer discreet, contract-based pest management for Brandon businesses.
Warehousing & Logistics: We protect pallet storage and distribution centres from rodent damage, ensuring your goods remain contamination-free.
Retail & Food: We support local takeaways, cafes, and shops on the High Street with routine monitoring to meet EHO compliance standards.
Discretion: We use unbranded vehicles and can visit outside of opening hours to ensure your staff and customers remain unaware of any pest prevention measures.
Safety: Protecting Your Family & Pets
We know that for families in Brandon, safety is the primary concern. You want the pests gone, but you need to know your children and pets are safe.
Newmarket Pest Solutions prioritises safety above all else:
Tamper-Resistant Equipment: For rodent treatments, we use heavy-duty, locking bait stations that cannot be opened by children, dogs, or cats.
Site Assessment: Before laying any treatment, we conduct a risk assessment. If you have a curious dog or a free-roaming cat, we will adapt our methods to suit your household.
Clear Instructions: We leave you with clear, written advice on what to do after the treatment (e.g., keeping pets away from a treated wasp nest for a few hours).

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How quickly can you get to Brandon? A: We are in the Brandon area almost every day. We can often offer same-day or next-day appointments for customers in IP27.
Q: Why do I have so many moles in my garden? A: It is likely due to the soil. Brandon sits on the edge of the Brecklands, where the soil is light and sandy. This makes it incredibly easy for moles to tunnel, allowing them to colonise gardens much faster than in areas with heavy clay soil.
Q: Do you treat bed bugs or fleas? A: No. We have chosen to specialise exclusively in Rats, Mice, Squirrels, Moles, and Wasps. By focusing on these core environmental pests, we ensure we deliver the highest standard of specialist service.
Q: Can you help with pests in the loft? A: Absolutely. Lofts are the most common hiding place for rats, mice, squirrels, and wasps. We are fully equipped to access loft spaces safely to identify and treat the problem.
