Rodent Control
Our rodent control service targets rats and mice infestations using humane and effective methods. We identify entry points, eliminate colonies, and implement preventive measures to protect your property. Our treatments ensure long-term solutions while minimising environmental impact, safeguarding both residential and commercial spaces.
Wasp Nest Removal
We offer rapid wasp nest removal to eliminate colonies safely and efficiently. Using protective gear and approved insecticides, we locate and destroy nests in walls, lofts, or gardens. Our team ensures complete eradication while advising on prevention strategies to avoid future infestations.
Mole Catching
Our mole catching service employs traditional trapping techniques to address garden damage caused by moles. We prioritise humane methods and avoid harmful poisons, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations. Regular monitoring guarantees effective population management for long-term lawn protection.
Ants Treatment
We tackle ant infestations in kitchens and gardens using targeted treatments to destroy colonies and prevent reinfestation. Our approach focuses on locating nests, applying residual insecticides, and sealing entry points, providing lasting relief from these persistent pests.

Our specialists safely remove tree bees from properties, addressing nests in bird boxes, soffits, or tree cavities. We use non-invasive techniques to relocate colonies where possible, balancing pest control needs with ecological responsibility to protect these important pollinators.

Report
So these guys are ace. We had a bee's nest in the eves of the house. Within 24 hours John was at our house and a few days later they had all left. About 3 weeks later wasps moved in not 5 feet from where the bees decided was a good home. The same day as my phone call to John he was there at my house again. The best part was the second call out was free as you are covered for a full year. I would highly recommend these guys. They are lovely, fast, efficient and fair. Will always use and never go anywhere else. Thanks to John and team

First used Mr. Alvey's services 28 years ago (I suspect it was Mr. Alvey senior!) and have used them a couple of times since for flea treatments.......if I find them on a pet, I get the house done by them, just to be sure. Highly recommend: prompt, efficient, and good prices. You won't go wrong with this firm.
