Common Rat Problems in Ringwood

New Forest Edge Market Town Rat Challenges
Ringwood’s position on the New Forest boundary creates distinctive rat problems. The River Avon provides natural rat corridors through the town, whilst the ancient forest edge generates constant pressure from established woodland populations. The historic market town centre with centuries-old buildings harbours traditional rat populations, and the town’s role as a regional shopping destination creates additional food sources and activity.

Seasonal Rat Activity in Ringwood

  • Spring: Forest rats become active as they emerge from winter shelters, exploring from woodland edge into residential areas. River Avon rat activity increases with warmer weather affecting waterside properties.
  • Summer: Peak forest rat activity with breeding populations exploring from New Forest areas into town properties. Market town activity creates maximum food sources around shops and restaurants.
  • Autumn: Forest rats begin seeking winter shelter, moving from woodland into heated buildings throughout the town. River activity continues affecting waterside properties.
  • Winter: Maximum pressure on Ringwood properties as both forest and urban rat populations seek heated shelter. Cold weather concentrates rats around food sources in the town centre.

Ground Bees

Wasp removal testimonial. I called to have someone come and remove either bees or wasps flying out of a hole in the ground this spring.  It was like Heathrow’s main runway and as we have three small children and a dog we very concerned. They arrived right on time in smart van and identified them as bumble bees that often inhabit old rodent burrows. I was astounded that Mr Cherry was able to smoke the bees and MOVE them to a safe location in the New Forest. We are safe and the bees are safe. I would highly recommend this company.
