Having a few problems with Rats in the roof space and under the house. I used traps (with peanut butter) in the roof and caught 3 within a week. All went quiet for a while until I noticed the scurrying and gnawing returned and found our food cupboard had been raided. That was enough, so I called Jack from The Pest Company and he was straight on the job with an assessment and a plan of action. Within an hour he had scanned our semi detached bungalow and next door too, laid traps and gave advice. Jack said he would return in two weeks. For those two weeks we didn't hear anything and found he had caught a large rat when he returned. Jack came back again (after another 2 weeks) and I gave him the good news that it was still quiet and the traps were clean. A five Star rating for the excellent and professional service Jack provided. He gave us 3 timed appointments and was here bang on time every time and was always available when calling for advice. Its been 6 week now and still blissfully quiet. Thank you, The Pest Company and Jack, you are a gem. Dave.

What an incredible service! Jack was extremely professional and polite. He kept me updated when he would be arriving. He helped us to get rid of a difficult to reach wasp nest. He knew exactly how to reach the nest and dealt with it quickly. Highly recommended! Thank you Jack.

Having spotted pigeons showing an interest in gathering under our recently-installed solar panels, I explored the internet to find local companies with experience in fitting exclusion netting, and also to compare prices. I approached The Pest Company because of the level of information available on their website, in particular their knowledge and training with regard to the legal and humane aspects of bird nest removal. Whilst other quotes were cheaper, the level of information on the website gave me confidence in making the choice. Jack was quick in responding to my initial request for a quote, and he answered my queries quickly, which was reassuring. We arranged a date for the fitting of bird wiring around our solar panels and he arrived on time. Jack and his colleague Liam were friendly and cheerful. We were impressed by their approach to health and safety whilst at work. The installation was fitted within the quoted timescale and it is unobtrusive to look at. The only disappointed ones around were the pigeons. I would recommend Jack and Liam for their speedy response to potential customers and their cheerful, professional approach. Good job done. Thanks!

Jack fitted bird protection for our solar panels and has done a great job. He responded really quickly and gave us a clear quote and set our expectations really well. He did a great job fitting them and I'd highly recommend his services

Rodents such as rats, mice, and squirrels can cause havoc on your home or business. They often enter through structural faults, allowing them to return repeatedly.
Beyond property damage, these pests pose significant health risks by carrying diseases transmissible to humans.
By selecting a professional pest control company like ours, you benefit from swift identification of the problem species, an effective treatment plan to eliminate them, and expert advice on preventing future infestations.
Wasps, hornets, and the various species of bees are frequently misidentified. As professional pest controllers we can quickly determine which stinging insect is causing the issue and provide advice on the best resolution.
Wasp and hornet nests can often be treated in a single visit, effectively eliminating the nest when it poses a danger.
Being stung by a wasp is painful and can be dangerous for those with allergic reactions to insect stings. We always recommend that wasp nest treatments be handled only by professionals with the proper protective equipment.
Owning cats and dogs can unfortunately result in fleas entering your home. Fleas often reside in your pets’ fur but can also spread to flooring, bedding, and seating areas in search of a new host, sometimes resulting in bites on people.
Using a vet-prescribed flea treatment for your pet is crucial to slowing the spread of fleas. However, treating your home as well provides the best chance of complete control, effectively targeting fleas from all angles.
We frequently receive calls from Knaresborough residents seeking help with Common Clothes Moths and Case Bearing Clothes Moths. These and other moth species can cause significant damage to textiles, including wool, silk, fur, feathers, and other natural fibres.
Moths lay their eggs on carpets, clothing, and other textile items. The eggs hatch into larvae, which feed on the fibres, causing damage.
Clients often report seeing moths on walls and ceilings, along with damage to carpets and other fabrics. We typically recommend an initial survey followed by a treatment plan to address the problem effectively.
Our experienced team have the knowledge and skill to work both effectively and safely.
