Cockroach Control

Q: How Much Does Cockroach Control Cost?

There is no standard charge, because it depends on the situation and the work needed at your property. If we need to visit your property to survey the problem, a survey charge may apply. If you would like proofing as well, that is individually quoted after assessment. Phone advice is free.

Q: Can I Proof My Home From Cockroaches?

Good habits help a lot. Store food correctly and keep the kitchen clean, so there is less to draw cockroaches in. After we have seen the property, we can advise on proofing, which is individually quoted after assessment. Our proofing and deterrents page has more on this.

Q: When Can I Phone About Cockroach Control?

We're open Monday to Saturday, 8am to 9pm. We're closed on Sundays. Ring 02394 190 822 at any point in that window. Phone advice is free. A call is a good way to check whether what you have found sounds like cockroaches.

Q: What Signs Of Cockroaches Should I Look For?

Look out for the insects themselves, along with droppings, eggs or a musty smell. On their own, these are clues rather than proof, and a technician confirms what is happening when we visit. Phone advice is free if you would like to describe what you have found first.

Q: Do You Look At The Property Before Treatment?

Yes. We visit and inspect first, so we understand the situation before any work begins. If we need to visit your property to survey the problem, a survey charge may apply. What we find during the inspection shapes the treatment we carry out.

Q: What Happens After A Cockroach Visit?

You receive aftercare advice and practical prevention tips, such as storing food correctly and keeping the kitchen clean. We may recommend proofing, which is individually quoted after assessment; see our proofing and deterrents page. If anything changes, call us and explain what you have noticed.

Q: When Do I Need To Ask For Professional Help?

Contact us when you notice any of the signs above, whether that is a cockroach, droppings, eggs or a musty smell. We will talk you through what a visit involves and whether one is needed at all. Phone advice is free.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had treatment Wednesday after, calling up in a panic Tuesday day. Charlie and Craig were amazing really reassuring, friendly and down to earth, as I worked myself into a right state, I was very scared on edge. I felt very much at ease, thank you so much on the treatment’s you provided, I can’t thank you enough! I can’t comment on the success of the treatment yet because it’s only been day 2. Again thank you, you and your team are hero’s, I couldn’t do your job.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I needed our solar panels bird-proofed. RS Pest Control moved fast, including arranging for the erection and dismantling of scaffolding, and were very friendly and helpful when I spoke to them on the phone. Everything was done within ten days. I am very pleased.

Cam back out as we weren't happy with the service we received plus cost we paid, so appreciated the effort to make things better. Something should be mentioned from the start that all bate gets removed from 3nd visit so customer knows what to expect.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had to contact RS Pest Control and couldn't be more impressed with the service, their professionalism and responsiveness stood out. The technician arrived on time, was courteous, and took the time to expalin the process. They conducted a comprehensive inspection of my property, identifying potential problems areas. The treatment itself was effective and I apprecaited their use of safe products. The treatment has been effective and has provided peace of mind.
The communication from the entire team has been excellent.

I highly recommend RS Pest Control to anyone requiring and effective cost effcient service - customer satisfaction and quality service.

Signs Of Cockroaches In Hampshire, Surrey And West Sussex

The clearest sign is the insect itself, whether you spot one cockroach or several. Alongside sightings, people often report droppings, eggs, or a musty smell that seems to linger in one particular room.

Any one of these points towards cockroaches, but it does not settle the question by itself. When we visit, a technician looks at the evidence in person and confirms what is behind it.

If you are unsure about what you have found, describe it to us over the phone. That first chat helps decide whether an inspection is the right next step.

How A Cockroach Visit Works

There are four parts to a cockroach control visit from RS, and the treatment is chosen once we know what we are dealing with.

1. Telling Us What You Have Noticed

Phone us or fill in the enquiry form with what you have come across, such as cockroaches, droppings, eggs or a musty smell, and which rooms seem to be affected.

2. Inspecting Your Property

A technician comes out and inspects the property to find where the activity is centred. If we need to visit your property to survey the problem, a survey charge may apply.

3. Treating What We Find

Based on the inspection, we carry out the work that suits the situation in your home or business. Before we start, we can discuss that work with you, so you understand what is being done and why.

4. Prevention Advice And Proofing

Once the treatment has been carried out, you receive aftercare and prevention advice. Where it would help, we may recommend proofing and deterrent services; each is individually quoted after assessment.

After A Cockroach Job

Cockroaches look for food, water and a dark place to shelter, so everyday habits make a difference after a treatment. Storing food correctly and keeping the kitchen clean both help, and the technician will point out anything specific to your property.

If anything changes later on, ring us and tell us what you are seeing. For restaurants, shops and other business premises, our commercial pest control service covers what we offer to companies.
