Services

Pest Control

We can provide one off treatments or on going routine works for both domestic and commercial clients covering all types of pests. This will include carrying out inspections to identify the pest, identify the cause and identify the ingress points to help us either manage the issue or eradicate it altogether. We try to use as little toxins as possible, but in some cases this is unavoidable but all precautions will be taken based on the surroundings.

Environmental & Decontamination Services

Removal and disposal of contaminated debris such as loft insulation, removal of rodent droppings, carcasses followed by sanitisation of the area. 

In some cases external shrubbery can be contributing towards a pest issue and may need to be removed to help deal with the pest infestation.

We can provide disinfection services using fogging and wipe down treatments in all environments for when standard cleaning services are not enough i.e for highly infectious outbreaks such as coronavirus and norovirus. 

In some cases EHO may serve a Hygiene Emergency Prohibition Notice if they feel there is an imminent risk to consumers. A Hygiene Emergency Prohibition Notice can be used to stop the use of processes, premises or equipment so don't under estimate the importance of hygiene in your business premises, call the experts.

Proofing

Pest proofing is the removal of access points into the building used by pests, which can be anything from sealing a small hole to installing large scale proofing solutions.  

Good pest control is not just a case of dealing with the pest currently on site but carrying out the relevant proofing works to reduce or in  most cases completely remove the risk of re-infestation altogether.

Honey Bee removal and relocation

Honey Bees are only really a problem where they are nesting in chimneys and doorway's or in areas near to where a person that's knowingly allergic to bee stings.

As Honey Bee colonies are able to grow to thousands of bees. the sheer weight of a large bee colony can be enough to cause serious structural damage to the walls, chimney and roof in your home.

With the hive growing larger, the mounting pressure can lead to melting wax, honey and bee waste products pushing through the walls, leaving damaging stains on the interior painted and wallpapered surfaces. 

THE ONLY TREATMENT OPTION IS RELOCATION.

For this reason we offer a Honey Bee removal and relocation service where we will carry out an initial survey of where the bees are harbouring, carry out any structural works to access the colony, remove the colony along with all accessible comb and reinstate any structure as required. The bees are then re-homed in one of our company hives where they are cared for year round. 

Construction Phase Pest Proofing

One of the main issues pest control technicians come across when dealing with a live pest infestation within a premises is locating the ingress, migration and harbourage points being used by the pest within the building they're tasked with looking after.

Here at Riddance UK Ltd, we specialise in pest proofing works and believe that to give your company the best chance of avoiding pest issues altogether within your business premises is to have carried out pest proofing works during the original construction phase when your premises is still an empty shell.

For this reason, we put our technicians through a CSCS training course which gives them the knowledge and qualifications to allow them to be integrated into the programme of works on a new store fit out whilst the premises is classed as a building site.

Carrying out pest proofing works during the fit out stage of your business set up will benefit your business massively by: 

• Reducing the extensive costs of stock damage caused by rodents feeding on food products within a retail store.

 • Removing the risk of damage to services and equipment for example rodents gnawing on electrical cables etc.

• Reducing the need for out of hours pest proofing, due to works not being able to be carried out during operating/ trading hours, which would mean no more staffing hours lost to accommodate night time proofing works.

• Reduced pest callout charges due to service providers techs being able to get on top of pest issues quicker with no where for rodents to hide.
