When to call a professional rather than treat it yourself

Not every insect needs a contractor. A single garden ant trail you can wipe away is not an emergency. Wasps in a loft, rats in a drain, or bed bugs in a rented flat usually are.

DIY can be enough

A clean cupboard moth in a sealed packet, or a lone spider, does not need a visit. Remove the food source and watch for a week.

Call sooner

Stinging insects near children, rodents in food rooms, repeating bites after travel, or any pest in a food business.

Safety

Rodenticides, nest treatments and bird work have legal and safety limits. Labels exist for a reason.

What we need from you

A photo, the postcode, and how long it has been going on. That is enough to say whether a visit is warranted.
