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

Terry is a true professional, I discussed an issue with him and when I spotted the culprit squirrel he came straight round discussed the ways forwards and how to also prevent future infestations. His knowledge was exemplary and having dealt with other pest control companies it’s clear Terry is the best in the trade. If you have any need for pest control services then Terry is the only contact you need! Our problem is now resolved at a really reasonable price :)

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.

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

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.

Great service.

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

Excellent service - got rid of cluster flies in attic very professionally

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

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

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.

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.

David did a fantastic job with a substantial rat infestation in my mother's back garden in Swanage. Very quick and professional response, going that extra mile to help clear up the problem. Now it is all sorted. Would highly recommend.

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.

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.

I was pleased with their professional manner from outset , kept me informed and carried out an efficient removal of wasps nest within 4 days of phoning .

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.

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!

We left a message for David on the Sunday evening and by 11am Monday he was at the house with all of his equipment. He walked us through the process very knowledgeably, explained the pesticides etc and made sure that we understood how best to keep our cat safe while it was all going on (and in the aftermath)! Since then, we’ve had absolutely no troubles! Amazing customer service and ideal end result.

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.

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

Very professional. Affordable and prompt.

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!😁

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.

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.

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.

Exceptional service received. I had a wasps nest in my loft unexpectedly and contacted Bug Busters via check a trade. They contacted me on a Sunday evening within 5 minutes and was out my 12pm the next day. Can’t recommend this company enough.

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.

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!

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

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!

Frank provided the most professional and friendly service you could ask for. He is extremely knowledgeable and kept me fully informed of his thoughts, plans and treatments used. I needed to spend extra on a rat-flap and Frank was really mindful & respectful of the costs of these. All options were clearly explained, before i made choices. I can fully recommend Frank & south coast pest control for a brilliant & swift service. Thanks Frank & team.

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.

Brilliant service thankyou very much
