A London pest controller usually starts the day early

After a quick breakfast, they are on the road, heading towards their first job. Due
to the fact that London is a vast, dirty and pest infested city, the average pest
controller is constantly busy.
Upon arriving, they will politely make the customer’s acquaintance. There’s no
time for idle chit chat though, because the urgent work ahead has to be done. In
other words, a friendly introduction and discussion of the owners difficulties will
suffice.

Our technician will do an assessment of the property

Next, they will study the property in order to ascertain what types of pests are
present. This is done by looking for signs of pest infestation such as droppings,
dead bodies and casings.

The pest controller will search high and low for the entry points and habitat of the
pests in question. They will delve into the smallest, darkest spaces and narrowest
hidey holes. However, most of the time, the owner will already know what the
problem is. Whether it‘s bed bugs or cockroaches, the customer will often direct
the professional towards where the pests were seen last.

Once the problem is determined they will begin the job

Next, it’s time to wage war against the pests. The technician will use every tool
and technique at their disposal to conquer the pests that are plaguing you.

There are a variety of methods a London pest control expert will use to eliminate
pests. These can include pesticides, fumigation, traps and pest proofing of the
property. In addition, the modern pest controller will also make use of eco-friendly
methods such as heat treatments.

Our London pest controllers work until the job’s done

When they are done, the technician’s final inspection begins. Again, they will
check high and low to make sure that the infestation has been dealt with
completely.
This scenario will play out in a variety of different ways throughout the day. If a
technician is on the night shift, this schedule will be similar, but will be carried on
during the small hours.
At last, once their work for the day (or night) is done, the pest controller will head
home to put their feet up!
