Life as a Pest Controller

Life as a Pest Controller is a vocation and as a small business owner, requires commitment and passion.

We have a fantastic customer base that actively recommend us and appreciate the hard work and effort we put into every job regardless of the size. Without the support of local business and households it would make the job a lot harder.

Our great references, reviews and recent shortlisting for the Harrogate business awards is reassurance that we are doing something right.

People with pest issues often suffer with phobias as well whether it be rats, mice, wasps or birds they require immediate support once they realise they have an issue.

24 hours a day, 7 days a week

We provide a 24/7 service and have often been on call outs at all hours. We go places most people fear to tread to ensure all our customers are left in the knowledge their home or place of work is safe and secure.

We are one of the very few pest control companies that can offer a daily pest control service, due to current regulations and ethical reasons certain traps must be checked within every 24 hour period so life has become our work.

Many of our customers comment on our enthusiasm and passion for the work we carry out, I suppose the reason for this is because we love what we do, pest management requires experience, logic, detective skills, a strong stomach and a determined drive to help people through their pest related problem.

To be a good Pest Controller you must hold a passion for your work, unfortunately it’s very easy to rush and miss critical issues which will solve the problem promptly. Unfortunately we receive far too many calls requesting a follow up visit from other pest controllers that have provided an inferior service, so it is important you carry out a little research to ensure the company is well rated and has a track record.

So to sum up the life of a Pest Controller; you must hold passion, compassion, understanding and always be prepared to drop Sunday lunch to rescue a traumatised household. Above all else though, being a Pest Controller is an incredibly rewarding and exciting profession.
