If you were to look at adverts in newspapers and telephone books throughout the first half of the 20th century, you would find the term exterminator was the main descriptor used. People at the time reacted harshly to pest infestations and extermination was the goal. Products which displayed even a chance of harming human health or the environment were not considered and it was very much a case of ‘kill them all and let God sort out the rest’.
Since that period, a great deal of knowledge has been gained, and as a result of that, the methods we use are far less damaging to both humans and animals. This coupled with a greater understanding of pest biology and ecology, as well as best codes of practice has made a huge difference to the way pest control operates today.

Your local pest controller will conduct a thorough inspection of your property to identify and assess the level of the infestation. He will then select the correct treatment, ensuring maximum results and guaranteeing peace of mind. He will also advise you on post-service monitoring and provide helpful tips on how to prevent future infestations. For example, he will seal any rodent-made apertures that can be seen (no bigger than 1/2 inch) with wiring wool and expanding foam, so the problem cannot recur. For a more targeted approach, your pest controller will also remove any rodent nests that are found in accessible areas.
