Don't wait
When to call us right away
Pest problems rarely fix themselves - and most get worse, fast. If any of these sound familiar, the safest move is to call now.
A wasp or hornet nest near people
Stings can be dangerous - and life-threatening for anyone allergic. If a nest is by a door, play area or in a busy spot, don't wait.
Rats or mice in your kitchen or food area
Rodents contaminate food and gnaw electrical cables - a genuine fire risk. Active sightings in food areas need a fast response.
Bed bugs before another night's sleep
Bed bugs spread fast between rooms and belongings. The sooner they're treated, the easier - and cheaper - they are to stop.
A pest problem closing your business
An EHO visit, a customer complaint or pests in a commercial kitchen can shut you down. We respond same-day and document everything.
Cockroaches, fleas or flies in numbers
A sudden surge usually means a hidden source breeding nearby. Quick professional treatment stops it escalating.
Anything you're simply not sure about
If it's worrying you, call. Our RSPH-qualified engineers will tell you honestly how urgent it is - no pressure.
Stay safe
What to do while you wait
A few simple steps can stop the problem spreading - and keep you safe - until our engineer arrives.
Suspected wasp / bee nest
Keep everyone (and pets) well away, close nearby windows and doors, and do not disturb, block or spray the nest - that's when stings happen. Leave removal to a protected, trained engineer.
Rats or mice indoors
Move food into sealed containers, clear away spills and pet food overnight, and avoid handling droppings - clean later with gloves and disinfectant once treatment is underway.
Bed bugs
Don't move bedding or belongings to other rooms - that spreads them. Strip and hot-wash bedding (60°C+), and avoid bringing in shop-bought foggers, which often make infestations harder to treat.
Any sting or bite reaction
If anyone has difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat, or feels faint after a sting or bite, treat it as a medical emergency and call 999 / 111 first.
