- Notes: Council page: treats mice (indoors) and rats (indoor/outdoor) at domestic properties, with only the wasp service described as chargeable (£116.50 inc VAT); the Book of Charges (Environmental Protection and Public Health) lists only wasp nest removal £116.50 each and Rats/Mice (Commercial) £71.50 per hour (basis of free domestic rats/mice inferred, page does not use the word 'free'). Bed bug treatment not mentioned on page, so free bed bug claim in secondary reports not confirmed. Does not treat other animals (foxes, moles, rabbits, bees, birds). Page last modified 8 June 2026; Book of Charges fee year not stated. Commercial rate from Book of Charges although page says service does not apply to commercial property.
