Pest Control

The Council provides a Pest Control Treatment Service operated by the Environmental Health Service for domestic and commercial customers. In the majority of cases the Service is chargeable.  However in certain circumstances treatment is provided free or at a reduced charge.   

We have a call out/advice visit charge of £21..  If, for example the Pest Control Officers visits and finds that you have a problem with bees (which we don't treat) rather than wasps (which we do treat), the call out charge will still have to be paid.  See the attached for all other charges for treatment.

Charges for Pest Control treatments from 1st January 2012

Pests treated are:-

• Rats
• Mice (indoors)
• Bedbugs
• Cockroaches
• Carpet beetles/moths
• Fleas
• Wasps

You can find more information about the above pests on the relevant pages.

Please note that we do not treat for bees (see relevant page for further information),  squirrels, moles, foxes, any type of bird, ants, flies, badgers, hedgehogs.  If you have problems with any of these you should contact a commercial pest control company either through Yellow Pages or the internet.

We also offer pest control contracts to business premises.  If you would like a free quote please contact us.
