Dealing with pests in your home
Finding a pest at home can be unsettling, particularly where children, pets, sleeping areas or food storage are involved. We can discuss a wide range of domestic pest issues, from rodent activity in lofts and kitchens to insects in bedrooms and living spaces.
We start by understanding what you have seen, how long the problem has been present and where the activity is occurring. This helps determine whether identification, inspection or a treatment visit is needed.
Households
Advice on rodents, insects and pests affecting living spaces, gardens and outbuildings.
Landlords
Support with assessing reports from tenants and establishing what the property requires.
Managed homes
Practical discussion of access, communication and the treatment conditions for occupied properties.
What an assessment may involve
The work varies by pest. A rodent investigation may involve checking entry points and food sources; bed bug work typically needs detailed inspection of sleeping areas and furnishings. We discuss preparation, access and any restrictions before treatment is agreed.
Do not disturb suspect nests or spread the infestation
Avoid disturbing an active wasp nest. If you suspect bed bugs, avoid moving furniture or belongings between rooms before receiving appropriate advice.

Frequently asked questions
Will I need to leave the property?
Any access restrictions or re-entry requirements depend on the actual method and product selected. These should be explained before treatment.
Is one visit enough?
Not always. Some situations require monitoring or more than one visit, especially when there is an established infestation or unresolved entry points.
Can I send pictures first?
Yes. A clear photograph may help with initial identification, although it cannot replace an inspection in every case.
