Wasp Nest Removal
Single visit treatment with professional-grade insecticide. Often treatable the same or next day in season (April-October). Wasps die back; the nest is treated, not just sprayed.
From £80Holiday let, restaurant, hotel, food business or landlord portfolio? Reactive callouts cost more than ongoing cover and the EHO expects documented pest management. We'll match you with a local pest controller; ask for proper call-back cover, certificates, electronic site logs and scheduled inspections.
Commercial pest control is fundamentally different from domestic call-outs. Food businesses are legally required to manage pests under the Food Safety Act 1990 and the Food Hygiene (England) Regulations 2006. EHO inspections expect documented evidence of routine pest management — not just a receipt from last year's wasp callout. Landlords have duties under the Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018. Holiday lets in Cornwall risk reputational catastrophe from a single bedbug or rodent review.

Everything you need to know about commercial pest control in Cornwall.
From £30/month per site for a basic single-property holiday let contract. Small restaurants and cafes £40-£80/mo. Hotels £80-£200/mo depending on size. Food production sites quoted on survey. Multi-property landlord portfolios attract per-site discounts. The contract usually covers scheduled inspections, monitoring station servicing and electronic site logs; check whether call-back cover for active infestations is included.
Effectively yes. The Food Safety Act 1990 and Food Hygiene (England) Regulations 2006 require food businesses to have adequate pest control. An EHO inspection will expect documented evidence — not just verbal assurance. BPCA Servicing Member contracts provide audit-ready electronic site logs that satisfy EHO documentation requirements without question. The alternative — being caught with no records during an unannounced inspection — risks improvement notices, closure orders or prosecution.
Usually yes. A contract typically costs £30-£60/mo (£360-£720/year). A single out-of-hours bedbug callout in peak season is £400-£800. A single bad pest review on Airbnb or Sykes can drop your listing's visibility by 30%+ and cost thousands in lost bookings. Most multi-property Cornwall hosts run contracts on every property precisely because reactive callouts in summer are slower, more expensive, and risk customer fallout.
BPCA Servicing Membership requires the firm to comply with BS EN 16636 (the European pest management standard), carry minimum £10m Employers and £2m Public Liability insurance, and ensure all technical staff hold Lantra Level 3 (or equivalent) qualifications with active CPD scheme membership. Members are regularly audited by BPCA. BPCA Servicing Criteria documents the full requirements.
Yes — ask whether same-day or next-day call-back cover is included. Most Cornwall commercial contracts include it during normal business hours for active infestations (wasps, rats, mice, bedbugs identified between scheduled visits). Out-of-hours and weekend call-backs are usually available at standard call-out rates rather than free. The exact terms vary — read the contract before signing and ask the pest controller to clarify response times.
Often best as a contract. HMOs have continuous tenant turnover, shared kitchens, multiple cooking spaces and the classic pest mix (mice in kitchens, occasional bedbugs in mattresses, fly issues round bins). Routine quarterly inspections from a BPCA Servicing Member give you compliance documentation for the Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018, head off most problems before they escalate, and demonstrate due-diligence to tenants and local authorities. Multi-property discounts usually apply for portfolios of 5+.
