How to find a local, reliable pest control service
Dealing with an insect, bird or rodent infestation – whether it’s bed bugs, fleas, pigeons, wasps or cockroaches – can turn your home into a stressful and hostile environment. That’s why it’s vital that you deal with your pest problem before it escalates. Pest controllers can help with both commercial pest control and residential pest control.
What a pest control service can help with
A local pest control technician can help you identify and eradicate various types of pests that commonly infest residential and commercial properties. These include:
- Rats and mice
- Insects, including wasps, ants, bed bugs, moths, mites and ticks, cockroaches, spiders, and fleas
- Birds
Pest control services can get rid of one of the above pests, as well as a whole range of other bugs and birds. If your infestation is severe, they may need to fumigate your property in order to get rid of the pest. As well as chemical treatments (such as pesticides, insecticides and rodenticides), your pest controller might also recommend a heat treatment which uses high temperatures to kill pests like bed bugs and termites. You can also opt for biological treatments such as biological agents which target pests without harming the organisms and the environment. If you have a mice problem, your pest controller might also lay mouse traps.
Lastly, bug, rodent and bird control companies also offer preventative services to minimise the risk of future infestations. This includes sealing entry points and ensuring proper waste management.
Find a highly recommended pest control specialist in your area.
Factors to consider before you hire a pest controller
Ensure your pest infestation is dealt with properly by hiring a skilled pest infestation company in your local area. Look out for specialists that:
- Are a skilled company with a strong history of high standard projects
- Have all the licenses and insurance needed to protect you and their workers
- Have a good range of positive reviews from previous customers vouching for their reliability
- Are available to carry out the work in the timeframe you need it by
- Are quoting a price and payment option that you are happy with, having compared the quote with other pest control companies
A local pest control service is more likely to respond quickly as they’ll be right around the corner and ready to help.
What qualifications does your pest controller need?
Pest controllers need to have the RSPH/BPCA Level 2 Award in Pest Management. This is a recognised industry-standard qualification which is required to work in public health pest control. By picking a BPCA accredited pest controller, you can rest assured that you’ll be receiving a service from a trained and insured company.
You can check if a pest controller is BPCA accredited here.
How much does it cost to hire a pest controller?
Several factors can influence the cost of hiring a pest control service. This includes:
- What type of pest you’re exterminating
- How severe your infestation is
- How big your property is
- The type of treatment you need, and the number of treatments you’ll need to get rid of your pest
- Where you live in the UK, with cost of labour rising in London and the South East
On average, a pest controller costs between £200 to £400 a day to hire, though how much you spend will vary widely depending on the type of pest you have and your choice of treatment.

Questions you should ask a pest control service
Whether you’re looking to get rid of a cockroach problem, or have bed bugs in your home, there are a few questions you should ask before you hire any type of pest infestation specialist.
Do you have public liability insurance and what does this cover?
While it’s not a requirement for them to have it, it’s a good idea for your pest control company to have public liability insurance to cover you and them against any accidental damage done to your home or personal injuries. Make sure to always ask your tradespeople what insurance they have before you hire them. This will guarantee protection for both parties.
How many years of experience do you have?
Knowing how many years of experience your pest control company has will allow you to pick tradespeople who you are confident has enough experience to carry out a high quality job. When you’re finding a pest control expert through Rated People, head over to their profile to check out the pictures on their work gallery and their ratings and reviews.
What is your estimated timeline for completing the project?
Knowing what the estimated timeline for completing the project is will help you set realistic expectations about how long your pest eradication will take to complete.
How much will the job cost?
Asking how much the job will cost will help you budget for your project and will ensure price transparency before you hire. How much you’ll end up spending depends on the scope of your project, and where you live in the UK, so make sure you add plenty of details when you post a job.

We are Solar Technicians. Not pest control experts or window cleaners. We have the knowledge and experience when it involves installing or maintaining your Solar Panels. You wouldn’t want a brick layer working of your solar panels, would you? All our work comes with a Workmanship Guarantee and we are covered by our Public liability insurance. We do not use any chemicals or treatment to clean the solar panels and our specialist equipment protects the ARC on the face of the solar panels. Using the wrong equipment could be detrimental to your solar panels. We only use the highest standard of materials for Solar Bird Protection and the correct equipment for carrying out Solar Panel Cleans. Hence why pest control experts stuff chicken wire under the Solar Panels & window cleaners get poor results when they attempt to clean the Solar Panels from the ground with a soft bristle brush. We will be gaining access to the roof without scaffolding, which keeps the cost down and also using the correct equipment to clean the panles that will remove the build up of Lichen, Algae & any pollen / dust whilst still protecting the ARC on the face of the solar panels. We would advise a solar clean once a year, anymore is not necessary. If you wish to have both services completed at the same time, we would be happy to offer a discount. Please feel free to read our reviews on Google, for your own peace of mind of the quality service we provide.
Kevin quoted and did the job. Very polite and helpful. Job done a few days ago, 1 or 2 pigeons still hanging around which was what Kevin said but no bird mess on the paving since he did the job which is a very good sign to indicate what Kevin done is working as there was always bird mess in the morning that needed cleaning. Top professional 5 stars to Kevin. Would definitely recommend Kevin to anyone who has issues with pigeons nesting and sheltering under solar panels
