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.
