01 Local knowledge
Common pest problems in Harlow
Harlow's mix of post-war housing, newer developments, flats and industrial estates means we deal with a wide range of problems here, from rats around gardens and outbuildings to mice and cockroaches moving between flats, and wasp nests in eaves and lofts every summer.
Rat control in Harlow
Rats around gardens, sheds, decking and drains are one of the most common calls we get in Harlow.
Mouse control in Harlow
In flats and terraces, mice can move between properties, so we look at shared walls and service routes.
Wasp nest removal in Harlow
Wasp nests in eaves, lofts and air bricks are common across the town in summer.

Most of our calls in Harlow are about rats, mice and wasps. We also deal with bed bugs, cockroaches and ants when they turn up.

Yes. We work with units on Templefields and Pinnacles and other commercial premises across Harlow, where loading bays and stored goods can attract rats and mice.
