Rodent Control
Knebworth Pest Control offer effective rodent control options to homeowners and business customers alike.
Unlike our wasp nest removal it is not possible to provide a set price for this service due to variables such as size of the area to be controlled, the level of infestation and the control method used.
However we can provide this example of Rodent Control Cost in Herts for a standard domestic customer who has observed rat activity in the garden or around outbuildings.
Typical rat control cost would involve a survey of the area and placement of traps and professional rodenticide (poison). This will be followed by a second visit to clear the traps of dead rodents and replenish the poison, and then a third visit to clear and remove the traps and rodenticide. This is likely to cost around £160.
With a similar price for mouse control costs in Herts.
Rodent control is an ongoing process
BE AWARE – Any reputable Pest Controller will tell you that rodent control is likely to be an ongoing process. Knebworth Pest Control will offer advice on how to make your home or business as undesirable as possible to rodent infestation, however Knebworth is a rural village and rodents are therefore all around us.
While we can clear and eradicate a current infestation/nest there can be no guarantee that new mice or rats will not subsequently move in.
In my garden in Knebworth I eradicated a rats nest under my shed at the start of last summer. All rodent activity stopped for months. But by the time I removed the shed in the Autumn new rats had already moved in from the fields behind the village, and I was forced to start the process again.
What I should have done of course is rodent proofed the base of the shed with wire mesh as soon as the first nest was destroyed.
