Recent Pest Activity in Hertfordshire
Watford Borough Council changed its pest control delivery from May 2024, ending its in-house service and now only providing pest control for residents on means-tested benefits. This has pushed more Hertfordshire residents towards private pest controllers. St Albans Council retains legal powers to deal with rat and mice infestations and can serve notices on property owners requiring them to resolve problems.

Reviews: JG Pest Control Hertfordshire
Rodent Issue FINALLY Resolved
“We have hens and ducks and I tried for 30 days to catch this mega rat. This rat was smarter than me and my electronic traps / traditional traps. Never even touched them although I caught a few mice. I wanted an air rifle as friends were commenting that the rat was the size of a squirrel. So…. after many days and the matter getting worse I got in touch with JG Pest Control, they came quickly, were very professional the rat is with us no more.”
Sandra, Hereford, Herefordshire
Excellent service with rapid response.
“The initial survey was very thorough and professional checking garden, outdoor storage area, house (interior) and loft space. Appropriate action was undertaken there and then with the baiting and setting of traps. Two follow-up visits checked and confirmed that the problem was no longer active. Thanks JG for a job well done.”
Wendy, Bushey, Hertfordshire.

“Helpful and courteous employee Lee. Good experience. Thanks.”
