Pest Control

The Pest Control Team can offer your school pest control treatments tailored to your needs. These can be either one-off visits or an ongoing contract service.

• Our pest control technicians operate flexible working hours from Monday to Friday and it is possible for them to call outside of school hours. We will also offer weekend visits during the busy wasp season and can arrange visits at a time when the children are not present
• Our technicians will provide you with advice on preventing re-infestation
• We are members of the National Pest Technicians Association and all of our full-time officers hold the Royal Society of Public Health’s pest control certificate. All our officers have had a DBS check for their current positions within the Council and are eligible to work in establishments with children and vulnerable adults
• Although we are happy to undertake one-off treatments as and when called, a contract may be more economical for you and will help your school to maintain a pest free environment. A contract will also help you to conform to food and health and safety legislation whilst reducing any damage caused by pests and reducing the risk of infection to your pupils
• Contracts can cover rats, mice, insects and/or moles on school or college playing fields.

Benefits to your school

• Professionally trained pest control service using only approved chemicals, safe for use at schools and colleges
• Use of rat or mice baiting stations that are both safe and tamper proof
• Flexible contracts that meet your needs
• Competitive pricing
• Full contract record book detailing what has been done and where, providing reassurance that treatment is safe and that you are complying with any audit or inspection requirements.

We offer a free initial site visit to assess your situation, followed by a written quotation setting out the scope of the contract, tailored to suit your requirements.

Four levels of service are available. Prices will be confirmed in your quotation

We can also offer additional insect treatments at a reduced rate, when taken alongside a contract.  Price dependant on number of treatments needed, please contact us to discuss your requirements further.
