I had a wasp nest in a really awkward place behind the end of a terrace wall. Reece came in the really hot weather in all his safety gear and managed to squeeze into a small gap beside my conservatory... Toon meer

Excellent service. After my initial phone call, Liam came out the next morning. Dealt with our wasps nest very swiftly. Would definitely use again if we have another pest problem !

Your agent, Jamie Storey, was prompt, polite and efficient. The issue is that the treatment didn't seem to have worked very well. We understand he has since left the company, so we had someone else... Toon meer

Barry was excellent

Rang Barry in Antrim on Monday, he called on Tuesday morning, identified the nest in my chimney to be honey bees. We agreed to check if local beekeepers might be able to relocate the nest. When they couldn't be called again on Wednesday and eradicated the nest.
Knowledgeable and friendly first class service.

I paid £180 for two visits then I spoke to neighbour who went to local authority who arranged a third party visit and the cost was £40 for 3 visits what a difference as you can imagine we were shocked at paying over 4 times the amount that a neighbour paid

Antwoord van PestControl.co.uk

Dear Sally

Thank you for your review.

I understand your shock at the difference paid by you and your neighbour, who used the local council.

Until your review, we were unaware that your local council had re-launched a subsidised service in October 2022, which is great in a cost of living crisis and allows those in need to access the service.

Most councils have stopped their own provision of pest control, as there is no legal requirement for them to offer it and it’s expensive to provide.

Where councils do offer it (either themselves, or in conjunction with a private company) the council decides how much they want to subsidise the provision (effectively paying part of the cost for you).

We monitor our prices both locally and nationally, and compared to other private providers of pest control we are almost always the lowest cost provider, usually with the best / fastest service levels.

Our charge of £180 for two visits reflects the real commercial cost (of which our profit will be around £15).

Where the council offers a special rate, it’s not because it should only cost £40 and everyone else is over-charging, it’s because they choose to subsidise the cost (using your council tax) to bring the price down. If everyone used your local council, the council would lose fortunes, which is why they don’t shout about their very cheap prices.

An unsubsidised council service will usually cost about the same as our services. For example, Southampton Council charge £233.24 for a 3 visit rodent service.

And lastly, the service offered by local councils is usually a very basic service (they turn up, put poison down, but don’t try and find out how they are accessing your property), and often you will have to wait weeks, or even months for someone to attend.

I hope this explains how the £40 charge your neighbour paid was possible, and agree it makes our charge look outrageously high.

Many thanks

James

A first class service

A first class service, we live near fields so mice and rats are occasionally a problem. PestControl.co.uk is the first company we have used that hasn't just solved the problem but reviewed the entire property making suggestions on future prevention, guiding us to make changes ourselves to save money and where that was difficult giving us options. Thoroughly professional, I cannot recommend them enough.

Quick, professional and helpful service

Same day discovered woodworm, contacted Pest Control, sent pics and came to survey next day. Treated a few weeks after as was having work done on the house. Jamie was very professional and did a great job. First time buyers, it was a bit stressful, but he was very helpful and we felt assured after. Good guarantee on treatment, just remember VAT on top of quoted price!

Just want yo say a proper thank you to…

Just want yo say a proper thank you to James Roberts, from the chat on the phone telling me not to worry, to coming out and spraying my floor, he was very calming and gave us lots of sensible advice. I had woodworm in my antique furniture which had spread to my floor and carpet grippers. I was super stressed but he camled the situation by giving us several options all which were really reassuring.
He couldn’t access under my floor but sprayed the room from inside. If I can
Make a proper access to reach under my floor boards then he will come back and spray underneath if it becomes necessary. Its just taken the stress out of it. He is a really nice person. I would definitely recommend James Roberts.

£90 paid for nothing

I would like a full refund as I have paid out £90 for treatment on my house for a wasp problem and it is worse now than ever in the same place its always been. I have had 2 visits to cure the problem and it has just gone worse.i can't open my window in this heat wave. I am totally stressed out. I dont trust the company to come back out again as both visits were a waste of time. I have sent a complaints e mail for the attention of the ceo but not had a reply to my complaint. I will be contacting trading standards. Do not use this company if you have a wasp problem.

Brilliant Service Couldn't Ask For Better

Called Pestcontrol.co.uk to sort out a wasps nest after husband's attempts had failed. A lovely guy called Leo (Nottingham area) came out and we couldn't have asked for a better person. He was pleasant, knowledgeable, helpful but even better he sorted the problem in less than an hour. He offered to come back in a week if we still had a problem and "blast" the nest again with whatever they use free of charge. Thankfully the next day we were virtually wasp free whereas the day he came we were inundated with the blighters! Thanks Leo. You are great.

Phil Hume is an assest!!!!!!

I woke up a couple of weeks ago to a mouse in my room (mortified and screaming) my landlord had Phil Hume come out to inspect. He could not have done more for me. He came back a couple of times the first day as i kept seeing the mouse. He went above and beyond! Such a nice and reassure guy! Honestly he’s an assest to this company and has truly put my mind at ease with my experience. I have now had my 3 visits (and hopefully final) and each time he has been professional, knowledgable, reassuring and thorough!

Thanks Phil

An excellent service from James

James (Manchester) was great from the start. We had an issue with infestations and he came in immediately, identified the issues and entry points. Lay traps and bait throughout the venue and within a very short time frame we had zero signs of any infestations. We have now signed up to an ongoing contract with James as he has been so helpful and guided us through exactly what we need to do to keep on top of everything going forward. An excellent experience all round.

Very poor communication

Darren (Bognor Regis) was supposed to come to sort out birdproofing the front of our house on 23 February (he had previously given us an estimate which we agreed to). He called me on the morning to say that he had a doctor's appointment and wouldn't be able to come, so we rescheduled for 3 March. He said he would call me on the day to confirm what time to expect him.

By midday on 3 March I hadn't heard anything, so I called him and he said that he was coming later but was trying to work around the weather. He asked whether it was raining where we are and I said it had not rained here all day. He said that he would call me to let me know when he would be coming.

I never heard anything further from him. I messaged him in the evening to ask what was happening, but didn't get any reply.

It is particularly disappointing because we had already waited a couple of weeks due to his holiday (and then his doctor's appointment) and the work really needs to be done. He was helpful in person when he came to estimate (hence two stars rather than one) but our experience overall has been poor.

Fantastic job…

James at Pest Control did a fantastic job for us sorting out a problem we had with mice. He was courteous and very professional, and was always available to give advice on how to deal with the issue. Would certainly go back to this company if any similar issues arise in the future.

Most rudest company dealt with

I called Tony at 12.30am as I had an emergency pest problem. I only called as it says 24/7 on his website.

No answer but I managed to get someone else out at 2am from another company

Tony called me f-ing and blinding at 6.30am saying why did I call him so late. I explained it said 24/7 on the website.

I have never come across such digusting language to a potential customer and he has reqlly shown a true side of him that I was not expecting. Espcially as someone who had reached out for help.

Lets hope his manners improve and he also updates his website to take off 24/7 and updates google business too.

So the chappie comes

So the chappie comes, sets a trap for my rodent in the loft , with a camera. Cost , can't recall, I think it was £100. Rodent eats bait, leaves poo & trap is not triggered. To have him come back again two weeks later, reset the trap again would cost a further £100. Assuming say the rodent then did set the trap off and/or to set bait would then cost another £100. I decided to call it day after the first visit & he came & retrieved his trap & camera without a charge.

David Lines (RH) visited my property…

David Lines (RH) visited my property after we had a pigeon issue where they were nesting under our solar panels. He was professional and reliable and did the protection job he said he would really efficiently. Previous to speaking to David I had given up and thought there was nothing we could do. This should now resolve the issue which I’m really pleased about…cheers David!

A good all round experience.

Unfortunately I recently had to use the services of PestControl. James Roberts was the operative that attended my house.
He was very professional, courteous, meticulous, and especially kind with my 88-year-old mother-in-law who was beside herself. A real credit to himself and the company.
Luckily the situation was resolved very quickly and efficiently.
For reasons that I am sure all will understand and agree, I hope that I don’t need the services of PestControl again, but if the need arose I would not hesitate in calling them or recommending them to anyone else.

Very impressed with the service

Very impressed with the service. Kyle called me yesterday and let me know he would come today and sort my wasp problem. He was very polite and extremely professional. He explained everything to me and what to look for in the next few days. Very impressed would highly recommend this service.

Bit of a rip off

Called about a wasps nest in the loft and Kyle did manage to come the next day. Although he said he couldn't find the nest, despite me finding it within 5 minutes of him leaving (it was a big huge thing right in front of the loft door). Charged me £80 for treatment that didn't work or solve the problem. Tried to email him to resolve the issue and he never replied.
