Can I book pest control through this website?
No. Pest Protect London currently publishes information only. The website is available for a new operator, and treatment bookings are unavailable.
How much does pest control cost in London?
The pest, extent of activity, property size, access, treatment method and follow-up all affect the quote. Ask for the total price including VAT where applicable, return visits and any separate proofing work.
Should I contact my council?
Check your borough council’s current pest-control information. Availability, charges and eligibility vary. Tenants should also notify their landlord or managing agent.
How can I choose a pest-control company?
Ask about pest identification, relevant training, insurance, treatment methods and written follow-up terms. Check any claimed membership directly with the organisation.
