OUR SERVICES
Every season has a preferred pest species so there is never a time of year when there isn’t a chance of something invading your property or business. If you have a pest issue, I have a solution for it; from clothes moths to bedbugs, mice to ants. I am BPCA qualified and experienced in providing safe and effective treatments, tailored to your property and preferences and I am happy to survey the property beforehand to determine the invading species and propose a course of action.
The best method of reducing the risk of pests is to be proactive rather than reactive; I offer contract services for not only businesses but private residences too. That way you know that you have 24/7 coverage for a variety of pest species and increased peace of mind.
WHO WE ARE
I have been working in the pest control business for many years and came into this role with a scientific mindset to problem-solving. I hold a BSc in Medical Microbiology, which has helped me rise through the ranks of pest controllers; I initially completed the standard Royal Society for Public Health (RSPH) Level 2 Award in Pest Management and then became an Advanced Technician through the British Pest Control Association (BPCA). I then went on to become a Certified Field Biologist through the BPCA's challenging and comprehensive assessment and examination process. I'm a full member of the BASIS PROMPT Pest Controllers register, which involves Continuing Professional Development so I am always training in the most up-to-date methods of eradication. You can be assured that there is no one better to resolve your issues.
Each job I conduct will have an individual integrated pest management plan to determine the best solution for the pest problem in each situation. This is to ensure that I conduct my role safely and without risk to non-target species. And because we are a small, local and family-run business, we are able to keep our prices low without sacrificing on quality service.
CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS
Charlie (Edinburgh)
The mouse was caught the same day that Ben was out to treat my house. He found the entry point straight away and had the wee blighter gone the same night with no more issues.
Winnie (Edinburgh)
After my cat brought a mouse into my kitchen, I just couldn’t deal with it as I have a terrible phobia so I called Ben who was so responsive and professional. Within the hour he had been to my house and removed the mouse. I couldn’t recommend more.
