The Best Pest Control in Portesham, Dorset, United Kingdom (2025)

I wish we had gone to Terry first for help getting rid of rats. We certainly wouldn't use anyone else now. He is incredibly knowledgable and keeps helping and coming back until the problem is fixed. Really reasonable rates. We were actually quoted ten times as much by a different company! Thanks so much.

Terry was brilliant from start to finish. The work was carried out professionally with comprehensive advise and a charming dog called Max who expertly found the rat entry points. Following proofing of the property and three visits we could not be happier. Excellent service and half the price of a big national who also quoted us. Highly recommend

We have Rats occasionally due to a neighbor kindly over feeding birds and the excess food attracting mice and rats. Terry provided a very professional service using safe secure locked boxes. We understand rodents can access the boxes but the boxes are designed to prevent cats and other wildlife from being affected. The rodent issues were resolved very quickly at a very reasonable price. Thanks to Terry and Max our issues are resolved.

Very prompt response to a internal rat problem. Totally on top of what he was doing - very knowledgeable and friendly. Reasonable prices - definitely NOT a rip-off - very reasonable - his first bill covered first and second visit a week later to check and confirm solution. Really knows his stuff, Identified the location of the drain which was being used by the rats and specific solution to the problem. Returned a week later to check. 100% sorted! Great guy and cute Terrier dog who sniffed out (just by scent - not inside the drain!) which drain(s) the rats were getting into the house. 110% service and smile - recommend to anyone with rat problem.

Excellent fast response from Steve W who was able to reassure us that rodent droppings in loft were very old and we had no need to worry. Also carried out external check just to make sure there wasn't a problem. Very surprised to hear no charge for survey - that doesn't often happen these days!

Excellent service! Frank came out promptly for a survey on our home, he was very knowledgeable and professional and managed to discover the entry point for the mouse issue we were having and gave us some very helpful recommendations. We would highly recommend South Coast Pest Control to anyone

Absolutely fantastic company, so honest and helpful. Unfortunately 😱 we have had to use them in two houses and they have been amazing. First house was dealt with completely successfully. Second house needed no treatment and so no charge - how many companies would do that? Both Frank and Paul are complete gentlemen. Should I need a pest control company in the future I would not use any other company. Thanks guys.

With evidence of a rat getting into our loft space, I spoke with Frank who was able to visit and offer advice promptly. Although I'd already taken some steps, such as setting traps and looking to identify and block entry points where scratching had been heard, Frank described other possibilities I hadn't thought of and was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Things to do next were clearly set out, as were the options and costs for further action if the issue persists. I would highly recommend contacting SCPC for advice.

I highly recommend BMS Pest Control. I called them during the Christmas period when I heard scratching noises in the loft. Simon was able to book me in and visit within one day. They both did an inspection of the inside and exterior of the house, checking for any ways in. After a few days, the scratches had stopped and Simon came back a week later for a follow-up inspection. So far, no noises can be heard. Great service, highly knowledgeable and at a good price! Thank you!

Brilliant service. Sorted within a couple of days. Actually turned up which is a bonus these days! Very professional and advice given about what to expect of the wasps behaviour in the few hours after treatment. Would recommend without hesitation.

Very happy to recommend Simon and his team. On calling, we were offered an appointment the following day. Simon arrived when he stated he would, quickly assessed the situation and dispatched our problem wasp nest immediately. All done for a very reasonable price. Excellent service, quickly provided at a good price.

Emergency call out .... After contacting several other all found on Google and being told can't help till next week or for a few days or will cost over £300 to come out tonight. Being a disabled person at risk of death if stung due to breathing issues. Finding a Queen wasp in January in the bedroom was life threatening. Simon, bless him said he had just gotten home but would be over shortly to deal with my Queen wasp. Life saving service ... I really cannot tell you how difficult my life is just existing, so when something like this happens and you phone countless companies all NOT understanding the situation to find one that does made me burst into tears with relief. At personal risk of my privacy I am doing this review as OUTSTANDING SERVICE really is an understatement. The cost £120 I really cannot recommend this gentleman and his company highly enough and I fear the day he goes into retirement. Thank you so very very much.

Would highly recommend David. He visited within 24 hours of calling to deal with a wasp's nest in our loft. Very knowledgeable- enjoyed learning about wasp behaviour! Friendly and efficient. Will definitely use again if we have any further pest problems.

David came round on a Sunday and quickly dealt with a large wasp nest in our roof that was in danger of coming into the house. Great service. Thank you

David dealt with a hornets nest in-between a porch and roof space at my Mother's home. He was on site within 24 hrs of speaking to him and prompt to the time he gave me. Kind and thoughtful to my Mum who is senior, I would recommend his services.

David was very efficient and polite. He even offered to come back if the problem wasn't solved. Would definitely use him again ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍

Martin came the same day of my request to deal with a wasps nest in the eaves. He was very thorough and clearly knew his job. I would be glad to recommend ML Pest Control.

Martin was fast to respond and gave lots of helpful management information. He got on top of the problem quickly. Would use again, although hope we don't have to!😁

Very professional. Affordable and prompt.

Used Martin to identify a bug we were concerned about. He was really fast to respond and come out to see the issue. Luckily he identified it as not being a problem and charged us nothing for his trouble. Very impressed with the service, knowledge and professionalism.

David came within 24 hours of me ringing and cleared my 4 wasp nests before they became a real problem, he was so informative and so I now know the life cycle of the wasp and what to watch out for. Thank you David. I can highly recommend this company.

I was very impressed with David's knowledge and experience. He has been very thorough, explaining the treatments and methods each visit. We feel confident that the service provided will be effective over the coming weeks.

I would not hesitate to recommend this company. Dave was professional and polite. Extremely prompt and never failed to turn up when expected. He was helping my elderly client with a problem in her garden, he spoke with her with great patience and interest. He too is a wealth of local information and history.

An excellent service provided by David to deal with a wasp nest in the garden. He responded to my initial enquiry very promptly and arrived on the same day to treat the problem. The whole procedure was clearly explained to me before it was carried out. I was very impressed with David's professionalism and knowledge and would have no hesitation in recommending the service provided.

Fast and reliable service. Rodger was very easy to talk to and resolved the issue quickly. I would thoroughly recommend Rodger and his services.

Rodger offers a fantastic service, very knowledgeable and gets the job done. I would highly recommend

Very quick response and appointment, good comms and price. Thank u so much. Highly recommend

Robin was very knowledgeable and helpful. He kindly provided advice and answered all of my questions about damp and woodworm.

Great service.

The lady from Bug Busters is knowledgeable and gives one confidence that she can solve the problem of a wasp infestation near a chimney stack. She came around a few hours after I called. Would totally recommend this company.

Fantastic service. Jane came to treat for cluster flies at extremely short notice and after hours. Her response was fast and she carried out an extremely professional and extensive service. Saved my bacon! I highly recommend Bug Busters. Thank you Jane!

Jane has helped us with various problems, involving both rodents and wasps, over the last 3 years. She replies promptly to requests for help and is very reliable and methodical. Safety of pets on site is her main concern when putting down bait, and she fully explains all deposition sites and how to manage these. In addition, she is a very interesting, friendly person. We don’t know how we would manage without her excellent service.

Jane was brilliant. She came round straight away. She discussed various options with us and came up with a sensible plan. No jargon - just a simple straight forward explanation and action. Just what you want. I'd highly recommend her.

Roger was very quick to respond to an issue with my elderly father. He was very patient and a good communicator. Roger spent time ensuring my father was ok with what he was doing and explained what the outcome was. Excellent service, would definitely recommend. Very much appreciated, thankyou Roger.

Ryan did a fantastic job at our house and eradicated all signs of rats. Highly recommended

Roger is one of the best tradesman and small businesses I have ever had to us. His knowledge of what best suits the problem you have is second to none and his friendly and genuine nature puts you at ease as soon as you meet him. I would recommend him to anyone of any age. Big thumbs up and thank you for all you have done for us GarethHambling

Superb service, had an extremely quick response as to a query regarding a potential wasp nest u see a floor. A quick but thorougher investors to a decision being made to fumigate vi and air brick outside of the property and the wasp issues were resolved. They was even time given to show and tell different wasps to our grandchild which has made her more interested in wasps and bees and less concerned. I can decoy them enough. A**
