Michael was absolutely fantastic in dealing with an “outbreak” of mice in my home. His approach was so expert, and so reassuring in relation to the problem. He did call outs until the issue was resolved. He not only sorted that issue but advised and implemented protection in relation to any further access by intruders! I’m extremely grateful for the work and care that he took, and would genuinely and wholeheartedly recommend Michael and his company.

Very quick to respond to our queries! Micheal was very professional and helpful to us over the phone. Was accommodating to what we needed done, he then Booked a call out with us for the very next day. Very happy with Micheal’s services.

I have no hesitation in recommending Michael and his company for any of your pest control issues. He was very prompt in responding to calls and texts, for both the initial call-out and the follow-up call-out. He was very professional at all times, not only solving the specific problem but going the extra mile to offer expert advice in a knowledgeable and helpful way.

I called in on a Saturday evening after I saw a mouse run across my living room floor and got a text back straight away -- Michael was over Sunday morning! He definitely put my mind at ease and though the initial cost was a bit steeper than I expected, his services were well worth the money. Now, three or so weeks later, I haven't seen mice nor are there any in the traps. If I ever have any issues again he's definitely going to be the first person I call!

Great service - Michael came out to us quickly and was quick to spot the cause of our mice problem. Traps set and collected few days later - all worked great and we were mouse free within a day or so! Thanks so much!

Michael called out promptly, no marked van or anything. Had a fear of possible bed bugs but maybe was reading the internet too much. Anyway, he was a thorough professional and really knows what he's talking about. False alarm and fairly re-assured me about same...highly recommended for any pests you might have, knowledgeable and trustworthy.

Michael called out on a Sunday am, after a 10pm call on Saturday! to help against mice. This was in a rental house and whilst he kept in touch with me, he was great at bringing peace of mind to my tenants. He took calls and kept going back until all was clear (fingers crossed). Would deco recommend. Thanks again Michael.

We rang Michael at 10am on Friday morning as we discovered we had mice in the house and he was out withing a couple of hours. He set to work straight away and was extremely thorough in checking the whole house for entry points and set traps where necessary. His second visit was today (18th Feb 2020) and he checked all traps again and reset them making us feel much more at ease (as approx 14 mice were caught since his first visit). He's a very pleasent and efficient worker and he has made us feel a lot more at ease. I would highly recommend Effective Pest Control.

Cannot recommend Michael highly enough!!!! He was amazing! Arrived at our house at short notice and was at the other end of the phone at all times. We had a rat in our house and Michael went over and above to help get rid of it and prevent others from entering! He was very knowledgeable on the matter and was able to find the entry points and block them off to prevent further issues!!! After fitting the rat flap and laying down bait Michael came back another day to check everything! He even came out a third time while we were getting our drains surveyed!!! Michael is extremely professional and would highly recommend him to anyone! Thank you Michael

Michael has helped us with both mice and rat issues in our home over the last year. He has been so quick to get out to us in both cases where we needed immediate professional help. Michael understands how horrible an infestation feels in a home- how scary it can be with kids too and he provides a full service with lots of follow up and reassurance after the “problem” has passed. Couldn’t recommend him more.

We had a large wasp hive in the attic, they started coming through the ceiling to the kitchen so rang effective pest control. Michael came out the next morning to sort it and after that we had no more wasps in the kitchen and no more wasps outside the house. Excellent service, In and out and no hassle. Mark

I discovered a wasps nest and contacted Michael. He was a pleasure to deal with. Called out the next day and dealt with the nest very quickly. I was shocked to learn there was up to 4000 wasps there. Michael is very knowledgeable and highly recommend him. He even followed up to see were all the wasps gone, great customer service.

Had wasps behind a vent in my house walls. Michael came out very quickly and removed. He said he would come out again if the wasps returned that season for free. The wasps moved to a bush in the front garden. Michael came back and treated the bush - wasps are gone! He was always prompt, very reasonable and pleasant. I highly recommend him!

I contacted Michael by email at the weekend to treat a wasps nest behind the soffit on a balcony below the eaves of my house. He replied within a couple of hours and during the weekend. He was available to come to the house promptly. Michael is very professional, easy to deal with, and gave me all the info needed. He arrived on time, and had the nest treated within 10 minutes. The wasps were visibly starting to die within the hour. Mostly gone now 2 hrs later. Very happy with the service, would recommend and use again.

Highly recommended. Very fast and efficient service. The (original) job was to remove a wasp nest in the garden shed which Michael did with ease. I was going to try to and treat it myself with wasp nest killer foam - thankfully I called in the expert because Michael noticed wasp activity under the roof of the house and there was actually a second much larger nest (5 to 10 thousand wasps!) in the attic. Michael treated the area, at no extra cost, where they were entering with a 6m pole and spray - an expert in his field.

Great service from Michael...highly recommended!! We discovered my mam had a wasps nest at the front of her house. I rang Michael to see if he could help and he came out the next day. Michael discovered she did not have 1 but 3 nests. Thankfully Michael got rid of all 3. Once again thank you!

Yvonne Genocchi

07:01 22 Jul 19

Great Service - Michael was easy to contact by email and then we corresponded by text. He arrived on time and gave me some brief information about wasps and what I could expect to happen after he had sprayed the nest for me - it took him about 10 mins. The wasps are gone! But Michael did assure me that if I had any issues that I could contact him and that he would call back out to me. Great service - would highly recommend!

I cannot recommend Effective Pest Control highly enough. They were very knowledgeable and easy to deal with. They came out the next morning after we contacted them and very quickly diagnosed the problem (we had rats). They then dealt with it effectively and in a no-nonsense manner. We have not had a problem since.

June KEARNS-Hilliard

Excellent service from Michael. I discovered a wasps nest which needed to be dealt with promptly due to it's position and the fact that small children regularly play in the area it was in. I emailed Michael after hours and he immediately replied, I wasn't expecting to hear back from him until the next day during office hours. He arranged to call out and less than 24 hours after first contacting him, the nest was dealt with. His number is definitely being saved for future reference and to pass on to anyone I know who needs his pest control services.

Neville Dunne

Michael provides a fast and reliable service, attending at short notice and out of hours if needed. He is determined to solve any pest situation, and will call back to make sure a problem is fully resolved. Highly recommended.

Efficiency, accuracy and good price. Great job!I engaged Michael to sort out a rat issue at my home. He was very responsive, he called in the same day and most important thing is available even after office hours. He came in for multiple visits to ensure that the problem is eradicated.

Michael made his first visit on the day we rang him. He has made a few visits since then, to lay more mouse traps and clear up the used ones. He is efficient and it has been relatively easy setting up the timing for those visits, he’s even available after office hours. We’re pleased with his service thus far and look forward to a mouse-free home next week!
