Pest Control Across Devon
Devon’s varied landscape brings diverse pest problems. East Devon District Council’s pest control team won membership of the British Pest Control Association (BPCA) in September 2024, a recognition of the scale of work handled across the district – dealing with rats, mice, wasps, fleas, cockroaches and ants throughout the year.
North Devon Council is reintroducing pest control services after a 20-year absence, reflecting growing demand from residents struggling with infestations. Estimated fees include wasps at 82 pounds, rats at 180 pounds and bed bugs at 290 pounds – highlighting how costly pest problems can become without professional help.
Exeter City Council offers subsidised pest control surveys, but the city’s historic buildings and older drainage systems mean rodent problems are persistent. The tourism industry across South and North Devon creates seasonal peaks, with holiday cottages and caravan parks frequently needing treatment for wasps, fleas and bed bugs during summer months.
Devon’s mild winters mean pest activity continues later into the year than in northern counties. JG Pest Control covers all of Devon from Plymouth to Barnstaple and everywhere in between.

Frequently Asked Questions: Pest Control in Devon
What pests are most common in Devon?
Rats and mice are the most reported pests across Devon, followed by wasps in summer. Seagulls cause problems in coastal towns, and the mild climate means flea and ant activity starts earlier than in other parts of the UK.
Do you cover both North and South Devon?
Yes. We cover the whole of Devon from Plymouth and Dartmouth in the south to Barnstaple and Ilfracombe in the north, including Exeter, Exmoor and Dartmoor.
Can you treat thatched properties?
Yes. Our technicians have experience with thatched roofs, which can harbour birds, wasps and rodents. We use appropriate methods that avoid damaging the thatch.
How fast can you get to me in Devon?
We offer same-day emergency callouts. Our technicians are based across Devon so we can usually reach you within a couple of hours.
