Pest Control Fareham

Q: Do You Cover Portchester, Titchfield And The Wider Fareham Borough?

Yes. Portchester and Titchfield are within our coverage, along with the other borough localities named in Areas We Cover. We cover the town and these wider localities, so tell us which one your home or premises is in when enquiring.

Q: What Days And Hours Are You Open?

We're open Monday to Saturday, 8am to 9pm. We're closed on Sundays.

Q: How Do I Book A Visit?

Phone 02394 190 822 between 8am and 9pm, Monday to Saturday, or complete the enquiry form. Describe any pest you've seen, other signs such as droppings or noise, the property type and where access will be needed.

Q: How Many Visits Will I Need?

For rats or mice, a typical job usually needs 3 visits. With bed bugs, heat should need just one visit; chemical treatment usually needs 3 to 4 sprays, separated by one week. Visit numbers for other pests follow an individual assessment.

Q: Do I Need To Leave The House During Treatment?

With bed bug heat, people and pets must be elsewhere throughout treatment, then wait a minimum of 4 hours before returning. After a chemical bed bug spray, keep the property empty of people and pets for a minimum of 4 hours. We explain other treatment requirements when booking.

Q: Do You Treat Bed Bugs With Heat?

Yes. Hot air fed from large heaters outside brings the affected rooms to about 60°C. Treatment includes a residual spray, and booking includes instructions for preparation. Our heat treatment guide and Fareham bed bug page give more information.

Q: Do You Work With Landlords And Businesses?

Yes. Rental-property enquiries can come from landlords or letting agents, and we work with cafés, restaurants, shops and other business premises. Tell us whether you need a one-off visit or a regular contract, and who can provide access.

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.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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.

Bed Bug Heat Treatment In Fareham

Before booking bed bug work, discuss which rooms show activity and how the property can be accessed. Our heat treatment service uses large heaters positioned externally to send hot air indoors. The affected rooms reach about 60°C, killing bed bugs at every stage of development, including eggs.

We include a residual spray alongside heating. Heat reduces the chemicals required, and you can usually leave furniture in the property. Preparation still matters: we provide the instructions when booking, rather than asking you to decide what to move yourself. For heat, arrange for every person and pet to stay elsewhere during treatment and for a minimum of 4 hours afterwards.

Heat should require one visit. For a whole house or flat treated with heat, our return arrangement applies if you tell us about continuing activity within 30 days: we will come back.

When heat isn’t suitable, chemical work usually comprises 3 to 4 spray treatments at intervals of one week. Each spray requires all occupants and pets to be out for at least 4 hours afterwards. Read the Fareham bed bug treatment information when considering this alternative.

Rats And Mice In Fareham

When describing rodent activity, separate what you can see from what you can hear. Droppings, gnawing and garden burrows give us different information from scratching above a ceiling. Tell us whether you can provide loft access; we assess roof spaces as well as routes along pipes, walls and garden boundaries.

Rodent treatment normally runs over 3 visits for a typical rat or mouse job. We’ll tell you where the bait is, so you can make sure children can’t get to it, as we’re only there for the visit. Where possible, we use tamper-proof bait stations to keep pets and children away from the bait.

Discuss rat treatment in Fareham or help with mice, together with any entry-point proofing the assessment identifies. Treatment and closing an entry route are different parts of managing the problem.

Wasp And Bumblebee Nest Advice In Fareham

A suspected nest in a shed, loft, eaves or garden structure calls for identification, not a blocked entrance. Don’t seal the opening or disturb the nest. We establish whether wasps or hornets are involved before explaining the treatment; see our Fareham wasp page and hornet nest service.

Bees require their own discussion. Tell us their appearance, where they enter and what you’ve observed. We can then advise on the options for bumblebee nests. Our separate honeybee service moves honeybees live; it isn’t the same service as bumblebee nest advice.

Pigeon And Seagull Control In Fareham

For a bird enquiry, describe the layout as well as the birds: a ledge, an open roof or the gap beneath a panel array may call for different measures. Explain where they settle and whether access is through the building or from outside. We assess those details before proposing bird proofing for your Fareham property.

Possible measures include netting, spikes and mesh around solar panels. Falconry uses our own Harris hawks, but it is an option to assess, not a substitute for considering the building. We explain which approach fits the site. Do not interfere with nests yourself; any proposed work involving nests must follow wildlife restrictions.

Our pigeon service, seagull control information and falconry guidance explain these different approaches.

How A Visit Works

1. Describe The Problem And Property

Give the locality within the borough and explain where the activity occurs. If you’re arranging access for someone else, mention that when you contact us.

2. Establish What Needs Assessing

Your description helps us decide what needs checking. If we need to visit your property to survey the problem, a survey charge may apply. We discuss access and preparation for the proposed treatment.

3. Agree The Treatment Plan

We explain the method and expected visits in light of the findings. Ask what the plan involves before booking the work, particularly if several parts of the property are affected.

4. Follow The Aftercare Advice

Aftercare explains what you should do following the work. Where entry points or bird access need attention, we discuss suitable proofing alongside the treatment advice.

Pest Control For Fareham Businesses

A tenant’s report and a business enquiry may involve different access arrangements. Tell us who holds keys, which rooms or outside areas are affected and who will receive preparation instructions. We offer one-off work or regular contracts to landlords and letting agents, cafés, shops, restaurants and other premises. See our commercial pest control options.

What Affects The Price

We need more than the locality to price the work. The quote takes account of the pest, extent of activity, property size and accessibility, method and proposed visits. Phone advice is free. If we need to visit your property to survey the problem, a survey charge may apply.

You can set out the details in our online enquiry form or call 02394 190 822. We’re open Monday to Saturday, 8am to 9pm. Call us to arrange a visit at a time that suits you.

Why Choose RS Pest Control

We are NPTA Members, part of the National Pest Technicians Association, and all our technicians hold RSPH Level 2. We talk through the proposed treatment and preparation, including how to arrange access. Afterwards, we explain the aftercare instructions and your part in following them.
