Pest Control in Gidea Park

A homeowner on the Exhibition Estate discovered bites on both arms and tiny rust-coloured spots inside the seams of a recently purchased second-hand sofa. Our bed bug removal team confirmed bed bugs had spread from the sofa to the adjacent bedroom, heat-treated both rooms and applied residual spray to all soft furnishings and skirting joints. A follow-up visit two weeks later confirmed full clearance.

A resident near Raphael Park found droppings inside the cutlery drawer and gnaw marks on the bread bin every morning. Our mice control technician identified a hole where the gas pipe entered the kitchen wall, sealed it with quick-set cement and wire wool and set enclosed snap traps at key points. A second visit a week later showed no further activity.

A family on Main Road noticed a foul smell from beneath the garden shed and discovered rat burrows along the rear fence adjoining the railway embankment. Our rat control specialist collapsed the burrow system, secured the fence base with galvanised mesh and installed tamper-resistant bait stations around the garden perimeter. A three-week monitoring programme confirmed the rats were completely gone.

A landlord with a flat above a shop on Main Road received complaints from the tenant about cockroaches appearing in the bathroom and kitchen at night. Our cockroach treatment team traced the infestation to shared drainage risers, applied insecticidal dust into the voids, gel bait around all internal harbourage and sealed gaps around pipework. A follow-up confirmed the flat was cockroach-free.

A homeowner near Raphael Park found a wasp nest the size of a rugby ball hanging from the inside of the garden shed roof. Our wasp nest removal specialist treated the nest in the early evening, returned the next morning to confirm the colony was inactive and removed the nest in one piece. The shed was safe to use again within a day.
