Pest Control Services in Scarborough

Pest Control Scarborough - Gulls

Specialists in Seagull & Bird Control

Pest problems in Scarborough are often very different from those inland. As a busy coastal town, properties are particularly affected by seagulls, pigeons and other nuisance birds, alongside more common pests such as rodents and insects.

At Bite Back Pest Control, we provide professional, humane pest control services in Scarborough and the surrounding coastal areas, with specialist expertise in bird and seagull control for homes, businesses and hospitality premises.


Coastal Pest Control Experts in Scarborough

Scarborough’s seafront location, tourism industry and historic buildings create ideal conditions for pest activity. Easy access to food waste, flat roofs and nesting areas means problems can escalate quickly without professional intervention.

We understand the unique pest challenges faced by Scarborough properties, from aggressive seagulls during nesting season to rodents around commercial waste areas.


Bird & Seagull Control in Scarborough

Specialist Coastal Bird Control Services

Seagulls are by far the most common and disruptive pest in Scarborough, particularly for:

  • Hotels and guest houses

  • Restaurants, cafés and takeaways

  • Shops and seafront businesses

  • Residential properties near the coast

Common problems include:

  • Aggressive behaviour during nesting season

  • Loud noise early morning and late evening

  • Heavy fouling of roofs, pavements and outdoor seating areas

  • Blocked gutters and drainage

  • Damage to roofing materials and chimney stacks

  • Health risks from droppings in public areas

Seagulls are highly territorial and often return to the same buildings year after year, making professional bird proofing essential.


Our Scarborough Bird Control Solutions

All bird control is carried out legally and humanely, in line with the Wildlife and Countryside Act.

Our bird control services include:

  • Bird spikes for ledges, signs, chimneys and roof edges

  • Bird netting for larger roof areas, courtyards and balconies

  • Discreet bird wire systems for heritage and coastal buildings

  • Anti-roosting deterrents

  • Nest removal (where legally permitted)
