Pest Control

Domestic Premises

The Council provides a free service for the treatment of Rats and Mice in domestic premises.

To arrange a treatment for Rats & Mice in your home please contact Environmental Health. You can use the online contact form, email link or contact us by phone using the number to right of this page.

Unfortunately we are unable to provide a service to deal with other pests including insect pests.

Commercial Premises

The Council offers a treatment service for pests in Commercial Premises on a charging basis. Commercial contracts can also be drawn up which can often offer better value than several one-off treatments where there is a persistent problem. Alternatively, see yellow pages under Pest Control & Vermin for a private contractor.

To arrange a treatment or for further information please contact Environmental Health.
