Pest Control The eradication of insects and rodents which are transmitters of disease is a very significant part of the local authority's service to the community. Rats and mice, cockroaches, fleas and wasps are all universally regarded as unacceptable in the home or workplace and we provide a rapid service to poison these pests. We also provide advice and information on how to prevent any recurrence and have power to require occupiers to remove accumulations which are providing sustenance or harborage for public health pests. All the poisons used by our staff are as environmentally acceptable as possible and have low toxicity to non-target species.
The provision of pest control services is free to domestic rate payers except that we do charge £30 for treating wasp nests and £42 for treating fleas with a 50% discount for Senior Citizens. We also accept commercial contracts for pest control and are willing to make a competitive quote to provide a rapid response local service.
