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.

Other pest controller FAQ's
How much does it cost to hire a pest controller in the UK?
The cost of hiring a professional pest controller generally ranges from £75 for simple single-visit jobs, like a wasp nest removal, up to £250 for standard multi-visit treatments like clearing mice or rats. Total costs depend on the property size, the severity of the infestation, and your location, with prices rising by about 20% to 30% in London and the South East. For complex problems like a severe bed bug infestation, specialised heat treatments can scale from £500 to well over £1,200 depending on the number of rooms affected.
For a more accurate quote, speak to a pest control company in your local area.
What should I ask an infestation specialist before hiring them?
Before booking a pest control service, you should ask for a clear estimate of the job's total timeline and a transparent price breakdown to confirm whether necessary follow-up visits or preventative pest-proofing work are included in the initial quote. It is also highly recommended to ask if they hold valid public liability insurance to protect your property against accidental damage during the treatment process. Finally, check their years of trade experience and browse their customer reviews on Rated People to ensure they have a proven track record of handling your specific type of pest safely and effectively.
What is the difference between chemical treatments and modern heat treatments for household pests?
Standard chemical treatments rely on professional-grade insecticides or baits to eliminate pests over several visits, which is highly cost-effective for rodents, ants, and wasps. However, for stubborn insects like bed bugs or fleas, modern thermal heat treatments are often preferred because they raise the room temperature to a lethal level that kills all life stages, including eggs, in a single day. While heat treatments are more expensive upfront, they completely eliminate the need for repeat visits and are entirely chemical-free.

Didn’t want the job as it was too messy

I booked the gardener to come, didn't turn up, didn't answer phone, didn't respond to messages, terrible service, avoid! Update: eventually responded to my calls and messages an hour after he was supposed to be on the job. He said he had an emergency and would let me know an alternative date. That was three days ago. I get that people have emergencies, but I shouldn't have to chase for communications when Ive booked a service and been stood up. Not professional at all.

NOT A QUALIFIED BUILDER! Promised to complete all work in 4 days. Arrived after 11am each day. Insisted on full payment or wouldn't complete work, so I paid in full. Pergola not installed. Waited another week, I asked to be refunded for unfinished work; he refused, I Kept his tools until refunded. He threatened to destroy my garden. I returned tools but no refund given. Poor-quality work. Didn't use whacker to level ground; it was very uneven. Had to remove grass to have it relayed correctly.
