Local pest control for Mitcham

Mitcham sits right next to our base in Morden, so it is an area we are in constantly. We cover Mitcham, Colliers Wood, Pollards Hill and the surrounding streets.

The housing is mostly terraced and semi-detached, with a substantial amount converted into flats and houses in multiple occupation. HMOs are a particular feature here, and they bring their own pattern of work: shared kitchens, high turnover and bed bugs or cockroaches moving between rooms.

The Wandle runs through the area, and as with any watercourse it keeps rodent pressure up year round, especially on properties backing onto it.

  • Minutes from our base in Morden, so a fast response
  • Experience with HMOs and converted property
  • Landlord and licensing documentation where it is needed
  • Treatment for shared kitchens and communal areas
  • Follow-up visits included as standard

Does Merton Council do pest control in Mitcham?

Mitcham falls under Merton Council, which charges for pest control treatments for private tenants and owner-occupiers. The service has narrowed over the years, in line with most London boroughs.

For an HMO or a tenanted property, the council route is often slower and gives you less of what you actually need, which is a written record of what was found and what was done.

We will give you an honest view on which route suits your situation before you commit to either.

Mitcham questions

I manage an HMO in Mitcham. What should I be doing?
Shared kitchens and high turnover mean problems spread between rooms quickly. Most HMO landlords we work with move to scheduled visits rather than waiting for a callout, because it is cheaper and it keeps the licensing file clean.
Do you cover Pollards Hill and Colliers Wood?
Yes, both, along with the rest of the Mitcham area.
My property backs onto the Wandle and I keep getting rats.
That is common along the whole watercourse. It means proofing is doing more of the work than treatment, and that is where we would focus the spend.
Can you give me a report for my HMO licence file?
Yes. A written report after every visit, setting out what was found, what was treated and what was recommended.
