Highlights

Giz did a great job and took great care to deal with all possible points of vermin entry. Friendly and efficient service.

MikeTrustATrader5.0 rating

Giz came out to me on the same day of my request. He spoke to me for 20 minutes calming me down as I’m absolutely terrified of mice. I saw one run across my living room and had been up all night, Giz had a calm reassurance and knowledge I rarely come across. Upon a prompt arrival, Giz set up and explored the house understanding exactly where the mice were coming from and gave me three types of poison before the next visit. He continued to reassure me and even set up a camera from the entry point. I haven’t heard anything since so I can finally sleep at night, and even more so now I have The Pest Specialist on speed dial! Thank you, highly recommend.

Michael R5.0 / 5 ·

Had issue with rats within wall. Gzim was excellent, called back immediately and gave some initial thoughts over the phone. We found a time for a first visit which suited easily and he turned up bang on time for both visits. Issue has been addressed like he said it would be.

What to check before you hire

Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself

Pest control isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up - yet treatments use regulated pesticides inside your home. British Pest Control Association members are trained, qualified, insured and follow a strict code of practice. Check they're a member before you let them treat your home; it's free.

Check the BPCA register
Make sure they identify the pest and find where it is getting in FIRST. A reputable firm explains the problem and the plan and proofs the entry points, not just sprays and leaves.
Be wary of contracts that lock you into repeat visits you may not need; ask whether a one-off treatment with a guarantee would solve it before signing up to an ongoing plan.
Check they use approved, safe methods and carry insurance. It matters around children, pets, and anywhere food is prepared.
