Pest control involves the management and removal of unwanted pests such as rodents, insects, and birds from homes and businesses. Professional pest controllers use safe and effective methods to prevent infestations and protect health and property.
Pest infestations can cause serious health risks, structural damage, contamination of food, and emotional distress. Rodents, for example, can spread diseases like leptospirosis, while insects like wasps can cause painful stings and allergic reactions.
Yes, pests can pose significant health risks. Rodents can carry harmful bacteria, wasp stings can trigger allergic reactions, and bed bugs can cause skin irritation and sleep disturbances.
We treat a wide range of pests including rats, mice, squirrels, wasps, bed bugs, ants, cockroaches, and more. Our services cover both domestic and commercial properties.
The time required depends on the type and extent of the infestation. Some treatments can be completed within an hour, while more severe problems may need multiple visits.

In most cases, it is not necessary to leave your home. However, for certain treatments, such as wasp nest removal or insecticide spraying, temporary evacuation may be recommended for safety reasons.
Signs include droppings, gnaw marks, scratching noises in walls or ceilings, a musky smell, and greasy marks along skirting boards or pipes.

Keep food sealed, clean up crumbs and spills promptly, and seal any cracks or entry points. Good hygiene and maintenance are key to preventing ants.
Do not attempt to remove a wasp nest yourself. Contact a professional pest control service immediately, as disturbing the nest can provoke aggressive behaviour.

Some infestations can be resolved in a single visit, but others may require a series of treatments to fully eliminate the problem and prevent it from returning.
Yes, regular cleaning, proper waste management, sealing entry points, and prompt treatment of early signs of pests can all help prevent future infestations.
