Common problems

The pests people most often ask us about

Not sure what you have? Describe what you have seen, and a professional can help you narrow it down.

01

Mice and rats

Droppings, scratching in the walls or loft, or chewed wiring and packaging.

02

Wasps and hornets

Nests in lofts, eaves or sheds. Don't try to remove a large nest yourself.

03

Bed bugs

Bites and small stains on bedding. These usually need a professional and a plan for preparing the home.

04

Fleas and cockroaches

Often a sign of conditions that need dealing with as well as the insects.

05

Ants and moths

Trails in the kitchen, or damage to clothes and carpets.

06

Birds and squirrels

Pigeons nesting on buildings, or squirrels in the loft. Proofing is often part of the answer.

What to ask

Six things to ask any pest control company before you agree

01

Are you insured and a member of a trade body?

Ask for proof, and check it yourself.

02

What pest is it, and how do you know?

They should explain what they found and why, not just offer a treatment.

03

What products will you use, and are they safe for my family and pets?

Ask for the product information and how long to keep children and pets away.

04

What is included, and what is guaranteed?

Number of visits, areas covered, and what happens if the pests return, in writing.

05

Is this a one-off treatment or a plan?

Ask why, what each visit covers, and how to cancel a recurring plan.

06

How do I prepare, and when will I see results?

Ask what you need to do beforehand and how long it should take to work.

Good to Know

Questions about Namoye

How do I know what pest I have?

A professional can usually tell from the signs, such as droppings, damage, bites, nests or the creatures themselves. A photo helps. Be wary of anyone who names a treatment without first working out what the problem is.

Are treatments safe for my children and pets?

It depends on the product and how it is used. Ask what will be applied, where, how long to keep children and pets away, and for the product information in writing. Rodent baits in particular should be placed and managed carefully.

Should I use my local council?

Some councils offer pest control, sometimes for a fee and sometimes only for certain pests, so it's worth checking. A private company may be quicker or cover more.

How much does pest control cost?

It varies with the pest, the size of the property and how bad the problem is. Namoye doesn't set prices. Ask for a written quote that says what is included and how many visits, and be careful with large upfront payments.

Should I choose a one-off treatment or a plan?

Some problems need a single treatment and others need follow-up visits. Ask why a plan is needed, what each visit covers, and how to cancel, before you sign up to anything recurring.

Can I deal with wasps or a nest myself?

It can be dangerous, especially with a large nest or one that is hard to reach. A professional can treat it safely. If you think the insects may be bees, which are valuable, ask whether a beekeeper can help instead.

Should the company belong to a trade body?

It's a good sign. Look for membership of a body such as the British Pest Control Association or the National Pest Technicians Association, and ask for proof of insurance and training. Check the details yourself.

I rent my home. Who deals with it?

Tell your landlord or agent first, in writing. Who pays and who arranges treatment depends on the cause and your tenancy agreement. Citizens Advice can explain your options.

What happens if the pests come back?

Ask what is guaranteed, for how long, and whether repeat visits are free. Get it in writing, including anything you need to do to keep the guarantee valid.

What should I have ready?

What you have seen or heard and where, how long it has been going on, any photos, and your postcode. If you don't have everything, send the request anyway.

Is Namoye a pest control company?

No. Namoye is a free matching service. It doesn't treat, price or guarantee the work. The company that contacts you is responsible for the treatment and the quote.

Will several companies call me, and does it cost anything?

No to both. A verified professional contacts you, and Namoye is free for you.
