Pest Control Chichester

Q: Do You Cover Bosham, Selsey And The Wider Chichester Area?

Yes, our service includes Bosham and Selsey as well as Chichester and the places named under Areas We Cover. Give us the property's locality when enquiring; the city name alone may not describe where you need a visit.

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?

Use the enquiry form or phone 02394 190 822 during our opening hours, Monday to Saturday from 8am until 9pm. Include the locality, property type, pest or signs observed and affected rooms or outside areas. Mention who can let us in.

Q: How Many Visits Will I Need?

For a typical rat or mouse job, the usual plan is 3 visits. Bed bug heat should be a single visit, whereas 3 to 4 weekly spray applications are usual for chemical treatment. With other pests, assessment determines the visit plan.

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

For bed bug heat, arrange for everybody, including pets, to leave during the work and for at least 4 hours afterwards. Following each chemical bed bug spray, people and pets must also stay out for at least 4 hours. Booking advice covers requirements for other treatments.

Q: Do You Treat Bed Bugs With Heat?

Yes. With heat treatment, hot air enters from large external heaters and affected rooms reach about 60°C. A residual spray is included. We explain preparation when you book; see our Chichester bed bug guidance for the treatment options.

Q: Do You Work With Landlords And Businesses?

Yes. We provide one-off treatments and regular contracts for landlords, letting agents and businesses, including shops, cafés and restaurants. Explain the use of the premises and whether access needs coordinating with an occupier or another keyholder.

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 Chichester

Heating a room means reaching the bed bugs where they are hiding, including their eggs. For our bed bug heat treatment, large external heaters feed hot air into the property. We bring affected rooms to about 60°C to kill every life stage, and include a residual spray.

You can usually keep furniture in place, with fewer chemicals needed for the treatment. Heat should take one visit. If activity continues after a whole-house or whole-flat heat treatment, notify us during the following 30 days and we’ll arrange a return.

We give preparation instructions at booking so you know what to do before treatment. Everyone must leave for the heat work, pets included. Following treatment, allow at least 4 hours before anyone returns.

Where heat isn’t suitable, we usually plan a course of 3 to 4 chemical sprays at weekly intervals. Everyone, pets included, must leave for spraying. Allow at least 4 hours after each application before people or pets go back in. Our Chichester bed bug treatment page covers this option.

Rodent droppings and staining on loft boards under the rafters

Rats And Mice In Chichester

A scratching sound in a roof space doesn’t tell us everything about a rodent problem. Point out any droppings, gnawing or burrows too, and where you first noticed them. We assess possible routes through gardens, beside walls and pipes, and into lofts and other roof spaces.

A typical rat or mouse job is usually planned over 3 visits. 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.

Our Chichester rat service and mouse control service address the activity we find. Discuss rodent entry-point proofing with us as well: knowing how a rodent gets inside helps identify what needs attention beyond treatment.

Wasp And Bumblebee Nest Advice In Chichester

Tell us where insects enter and what they look like, without approaching or disturbing the nest. Leave the entrance open while you seek advice. Identification comes before deciding on wasp nest treatment or a hornet nest visit.

A bee enquiry follows a different route. We discuss bumblebee nests separately from honeybee removal. We move honeybees live rather than killing them; describe what you’ve observed so we can establish which bee service is relevant.

Pigeon And Seagull Control In Chichester

Bird enquiries need a view of how the space is being used. Are birds gathering on a roof, using a ledge or getting beneath solar panels? Describe the position and how we could reach it. The roof and access arrangements help determine which measures we can propose.

We assess netting, spikes and solar-panel mesh as proofing options. Our own Harris hawks are used for falconry control, where the site assessment supports it. We discuss the approach rather than assuming every building needs the same combination.

Read about pigeon control or seagull work. Leave nests undisturbed; work involving nesting birds needs assessment against wildlife restrictions.

How A Visit Works

1. Share Your Observations

Explain which locality you mean and whether the problem concerns living space, a garden or business premises. Include the signs you’ve noticed, even if you haven’t seen the pest itself.

2. Discuss The Assessment

We establish what information or access is needed. If we need to visit your property to survey the problem, a survey charge may apply.

3. Plan For The Work

Before treatment, we discuss the method, likely visits and preparation. Mention any access restrictions, including shared entrances or permission needed to reach a roof space.

4. Use The Aftercare Instructions

Follow the advice we leave about the treated areas. Ask us to explain anything you’re unsure about, including any proofing recommended following the assessment.

Pest Control For Chichester Businesses

For a city shop, a café or a rental property elsewhere in the district, tell us how the premises are occupied and which parts need attention. Landlords and letting agents can identify the person coordinating access with tenants. We offer commercial pest control for restaurants and other premises too, through one-off work or regular contracts.

What Affects The Price

The pest and proposed method are only part of a quote. Property size, affected spaces, access and the number of visits also matter. Phone advice is free. If we need to visit your property to survey the problem, a survey charge may apply.

Use the enquiry form to describe the problem, or ring 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’re NPTA Members, belonging to the National Pest Technicians Association, and all our technicians hold RSPH Level 2. You can ask about the proposed method before making arrangements. We explain preparation and aftercare, so you understand both the work and what you need to do around it.
