Treatment
Normally only one visit is required to spray a single nest with a powder insecticide. If additional separate nests are identified before or during treatment, then these can be treated at an additional (reduced) cost.
Further visits are not usually necessary; but if, for any reason, the treatment has been unsuccessful, any further necessary treatments will not be charged for.
Charges
Treatments for domestic infestations are charged at £41.00. This fee covers the initial treatment, and a further three visits if required. In most cases the initial treatment is sufficient to eradicate the infestation.
Please note: if the treatment charge is paid in advance by credit or debit card, a £2.00 discount is applied and the treatment therefore costs £39.00.
Concessionary Swindon Card Holders, with suffix Y or Z will be treated for £19.00.
Treatments in commercial premises will be charged at £45.10 (+VAT) for the first hour, and £22.55 (+VAT) for every additional half hour.
