Local pest control · CM16
We provide discreet pest control in Theydon Bois for homes around the village green and the surrounding roads.
01 Local knowledge
Surrounded by Epping Forest and open countryside, Theydon Bois properties commonly deal with mice and rats coming in from the edges of gardens, and wasp nests in roofs, sheds and hedges.

Countryside and woodland nearby mean mice can be a recurring problem without proper proofing.

Nests in roof spaces, sheds and hedges are common in summer.

Rats can be drawn to compost heaps, bird feeders and outbuildings.
