The Reveal: Not So Timorous Beasties

Not So Timorous Beasties

BBC Radio Scotland - The Reveal, Not So Timorous Beasties

A pest control couple in Edinburgh keep rats at bay and squirrels from invading homes.

When Vikki and Brian set up a pest control company, they didn't expect to be on call day and night. Rats are the least of their worries as squirrels invade attics around Edinburgh.

Join Nalini Chetty as she gives you access to the formerly unknown world of Edinburgh's pest controllers. Vikki and Brian, together for over 20 years, set up Tae A moose five years ago and haven't stopped working since. Rats are a big issues in the capital, but squirrels and mice are quickly out ranking them as most persistent rodent.

This episode of The Reveal takes us into the attics and cellars of helpless customers who'd be lost without the expertise of Brian. He was in the army for two decades, where lying in ditches and trenches means he's unphased by not so timorous beasties.
