    Pest control for external rats - Baited and to install drain valve.

    Posted 27 February

    Excellent commutation from Richard immediately. Quick to schedule a visit and discuss the situation. I think pretty standard for what we needed, will be installing drain valve during next visit.

    We had mice in our loft

    Posted 13 February

    Excellent work. He came within a day of our request, returned 3 times to lay bait and check the issue, which was all included in his original quote, except the future proofing but that was by choice from us and at a very low cost. He was very polite and professional and by far the best quote. Would highly recommend them.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND PESTS AWAY

    Posted 15 January

    Cannot recommend PESTS AWAY highly enough. It was stressful on discovering that the (first time) property my sons were buying had rodent droppings. Richard came immediately and applied the initial treatment, assuring me he would return in a week’s time to assess the situation. He was absolutely true to his word; contacted the estate agent for the keys and paid a second visit. He explained that a 4th visit might be required in-order to completely eradicate the problem - this was the situation in our case - however he waived any extra fee. We are now ‘furry-friend’ free, and very happy. Sarah k
