Introduction

 

To carry out this service, we do the following:-

 

  1. Carrying out treatments and disinfections to deal with specified rodent and insect pests, on request from residents and businesses in the Borough.
  2. Advising on the control of a range of other species, where we do not offer a treatment service.
  3. Promoting responsible use of poisons and insecticides.
  4. Dealing with accumulations of rubbish or any other matter that would encourage the presence of pest animals.

Treatments to control pest animals

 

The most common pest animals that we will treat are rats and mice, and insects like fleas and cockroaches.

 

In some cases there is a charge for this service.|

 

We may also treat wasps nests, although this will depend on exactly where the nest is situated and whether a treatment can be carried out safely.

 

In addition to treatments, we offer advice about a wide range of animals, birds and insects.
