Compliant pest control for automotive & forecourts
Dealership forecourts, workshops and forecourt shops combine warm engine bays, open canopies and constant vehicle movement - an environment where rodents nest, birds roost and wasps gather. Blades Pest Solutions delivers a proactive, monitoring-led pest-management programme for car dealerships, garages, MOT centres, bodyshops and petrol forecourts, protecting your stock vehicles, your premises and your brand image with the documented records a professional automotive site is expected to keep on file.

What's at stake
Why automotive & forecourts can't risk pests
- Rats and mice nest in the warm engine bays of stock vehicles and chew through wiring looms, hoses and insulation - causing expensive, hard-to-spot damage before a sale.
- Birds roosting on canopies, signage and showroom frontages foul forecourts, vehicles and customer walkways, undermining the spotless presentation your brand depends on.
- Wasp nests near pump islands, valeting areas and workshop roller doors put staff and customers at risk and can disrupt trade during the warmer months.
- Pests drawn to oils, fuels, waste and any forecourt food-to-go offer create hygiene, fire and contamination risks across a site that must stay safe for the public.
Your programme
What's included
Site survey & risk assessment
A full inspection of your premises - kitchens, stores, voids, waste areas and the building exterior - to map pest pressures, entry points and proofing needs.
Proofing & prevention
Sealing entry points and advising on waste, drainage and housekeeping so pests can't get in or find food and harbourage.
Monitoring & targeted treatment
Discreet monitoring points serviced on every visit, with targeted treatment using methods appropriate to your environment.
Audit-ready documentation
A site logbook recording every visit, finding, action and recommendation - the evidence inspectors and auditors expect to see.
Rapid & discreet response
Same-day and 24/7 call-outs, with out-of-hours and unmarked visits available so treatment never disrupts your operation.

Automotive pest control FAQs
- Can rodents really damage my stock vehicles?
- Yes - rats and mice are drawn to warm engine bays and will gnaw wiring looms, hoses and insulation, causing real and costly damage. Our monitoring-led programme is designed to keep them away from your vehicles before that happens.
- How do you deal with birds fouling the forecourt and showroom?
- We assess roosting and perching points around canopies, signage and frontages, then recommend proportionate proofing and deterrents to keep your forecourt and vehicles clean and presentable.
- Will visits disrupt trade on the forecourt?
- No. We work around your opening hours and busy periods with discreet visits, so monitoring and treatment never interrupt sales, servicing or fuel customers.
- Are your technicians qualified and insured?
- Yes - RSPH-qualified, fully insured, and confident in our work.
