Services
Disinfection Service
Our disinfection service utilises ULV fogging technology to eliminate bacteria and viruses in commercial spaces. Specially formulated anti-viral disinfectants target surfaces without damage, ensuring a 100% germ-free environment. As registered waste carriers, we handle hazardous disposal post-treatment. Ideal for businesses requiring high-standard hygiene compliance, this service guarantees safety and effectiveness against pathogens like COVID-19.
Pest Control
Specialising in rodents, insects, and birds, our BPCA-certified technicians address infestations with humane methods. Treatments include residual sprays, traps, and proofing solutions tailored to residential and commercial needs. We handle emergencies 24/7, offering follow-up checks to ensure complete eradication and prevention of future issues.
Cluster Fly Control
Targeting seasonal cluster fly infestations, we apply residual sprays to eliminate active flies and prevent hibernation in roof spaces. Our approach addresses entry points through gaps in windows and doors, ensuring long-term protection without harming non-target species like protected bats.
Flea Treatment
Professional flea control breaks breeding cycles using targeted insecticides, addressing infestations in homes and pet environments. We advise against DIY methods, ensuring safe, comprehensive treatments that eliminate eggs and larvae while protecting human and animal health.
Mice Removal
Using approved poisons and exclusion techniques, we eradicate mice infestations and prevent re-entry. Our technicians identify and seal entry points, addressing health risks like salmonella transmission. Treatments prioritise rapid results while minimising odours from inaccessible carcasses.

Can't speak any more highly of this company who were great in all respects. Alison was very helpful on email/phone/text and very re-assuring of our R problem which Rob was superb when attending on each of the 3 occasions he attended identifying our issue and sorting it out! Thank you.

Rob was super helpful over the phone, came out quicker than others who stopped responding to our query to remove a pigeons nest in our sky dish. Great value and more importantly a nice professional service from a very friendly exterminator :) would highly recommend.

Excellent customer service provided by both Alison and Rob from start to finish. I wanted to support a local business and from the first phone call I made, I received honest, clear advice at a stressful time. Once on site, Rob was thorough and explained fully my choices. He could clearly have charged me more for the service he provided, but wanted to give me options that would save me money whilst still dealing with the issue in question - mice! I would not hesitate to recommend this company - in my opinion they are passionate in their customer care and service. Well Done.

Fantastic service from Rob. We had a bird stuck in our chimney & rats in our flat roof. Rob was very professional & thorough in his approach to sorting out our problem. He gave us great advice & knowledge on each visit & he was always mindful of our young children when carrying out his work. Our problem was eventually eradicated due to Robs work. I found Alison very friendly on the phone accommodating with regards to booking them in. I would definitely use them again if I had any further problems. They are a professional company that are friendly, reliable & very well priced. This is my honest
