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.

Rating: 5 / 5

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.

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.

Rating: 5 / 5

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.

Brilliant, friendly service from start to finish - George was thorough and professional. He has really helped with our problem and I am so grateful! Will recommend to anyone needing help!

Rating: 5 / 5

Had George come out to deal with rodents. Done a really good job and property updated with new vents and no problems since. RPC are worth their weight in gold!

Professional and competent. Jacob attended, explained the methodology and what he was doing. Came back a week later to review and reset the traps etc, followed by a final visit to check all was well and to tidy up. An excellent service that I recommend.

Rating: 5 / 5

We had a wasp problem which would potentially scupper some scaffolding and roof work. Dropped an email to RPC and George was back within the hour, and had a slot available that same day! Jacob promptly arrived at the agreed time, suited up, and dealt with the problem very quickly. Jacob was personable and professional! The work was guaranteed, so asked to call back in the next 48 hours if the wasps are still around. This is the second time we've used RPC -- their service is great. Professional, respectful and reasonably priced. Thank you George, Jacob and team.

Moved into our new house and found we had rats found platinum pest control on Google and messaged chris who come out promptly. very friendly and knowledgeable fantastic service would 100% recommend

Rating: 5 / 5

Fantastic support and service for our family member who had an issue with Rats. Chris was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful and put everyone’s mind at ease and resolved the issue with speed and professionalism- would highly recommend.

Rating: 5 / 5

We are very satisfied with the service provided by Chris. We had a problem with starlings getting into and nesting in our loft and Chris' expertise identified where they were getting in and what needed to be done to prevent them. Amongst other measures, he installed bird mesh around the outside of the roof and we haven't see the birds since! We also have a few air-vents in the house walls that we suspected could be points of entry for vermin and other pests and Chris was able to advise and rectify this issue as well. We agree with other reviewers that Chris is friendly and courteous and provides a professional service at a reasonable price. We have no hesitation in recommending him.

Due to a worrying wasp nest on the edge of my conservatory roof, I found 'Platinum Pest Control' on Google. I read all Chris' reviews and decided to contact. Thoroughly impressed with his quick, efficient service. Arriving the following morning, he adeptly removed the nest. Chris explained his methods clearly and with confidence. He had a wealth of experience and learning to with his business and was proud of it. How refreshing to find such a lovely, professional, clearly engaged with his work. Thank you so much Chris for helping; learned a lot from you. Top guy!

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

Rating: 5 / 5

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!

Rating: 5 / 5

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.

Rating: 5 / 5

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.

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 :)

Rating: 5 / 5

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.

Rating: 5 / 5

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.

Rating: 5 / 5

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.

I was very impressed with the service l received from this highly knowledgeable and friendly firm.We'd been troubled by noisy rats in our extension roof for a few years and within less than an hour of their prompt arrival had discovered the entry point of the vermin and explained how to go about solving the problem. Thanks so much 😊

Very prompt efficient service to sort out two wasps nests. Lee was very knowledgable and helpful. I had to call him out again to look at a third nest a couple of weeks later which turned out to be bees which I decided to leave alone, Lee didn’t charge for this call out and advice. Great local business, would thoroughly recommended.

Rating: 5 / 5

A top class service. I had already contacted several companies who charged double that of West Country and who did not provide the prompt service I needed. West Country responded immediately and set about eradicating the wasps in quick time - useful because our roofers had just arrived and alerted me to the problem! Brilliant service and thoroughly recommended.

Rang Lee in the morning. He arrived early afternoon, listened carefully about our wasp problem, didn't find any nest where I indicated, but he then walked our back garden boundary and found the nest causing the problem. Very professional, highly competent and the company charges were extremely reasonable. Many thanks.

We had a wasp nest in a hedge. Called pest detective he was with us by 8 am next morning. Explained fully what he was going to do . Carried out the work to a very high standard, very friendly and helpful chap would recommend this company to anyone.

Paul was able to very quickly diagnose potential sources of infestation and provide the necessary solutions over 3 visits. Really friendly service and excellent value. Thoroughly recommend.

Rating: 5 / 5

Paul was great, very helpful with explaining the processes he uses and what to expect and to do before and after treatments. We had had the house fumigated upon moving in (with a different company) which clearly was not done properly so the pests did not actually go away. So I was very happy to have Paul treat the house properly and to have things explained to ensure this treatment works! Would highly recommend to anyone, very professional and knowledgeable.

This the second time I have used Guardian Pest Control - they are fast! I couldn't be more impressed with the service, professional, honest, friendly and knowledgeable. They arrive ahead of time and handled the situation perfectly.

Noticed a wasps nest in the eaves yesterday, contacted the company and they send Neil out today. Professional and polite. Job completed quickly and cleanly. With a guarantee to retreat if there is still activity in five days. Feel easier knowing this has been dealt with. Thank you!

Rating: 5 / 5

Hugh from Guardian attended our house the same day as the phone call, quickly spraying and removing a wasp nest with no fuss. We were given a notice of the pesticide used, and the cost was as-quoted and reasonable in my view. Thank you.
