Cockroach Problems
A cockroach infestation on your premises can lead to the spread of diseases. A cockroach can carry disease organisms such as Salmonella (food poisoning) and Escherichia coli which can be spread through saliva and excreta.
Cockroaches must moult regularly throughout their life-cycle. The discarded skin becomes airborne and can cause severe asthmatic reactions, particularly to children, the elderly and people with bronchial ailments.
Cockroaches will:
- Contaminate foodstuffs
- Damage goods, leather, books, packaging, plastics, pictures
- Cockroaches will eat almost anything.
Some business owners, particularly those in the hospitality and restaurant trade, have suffered badly as a direct result of cockroach infestation problems. The cost to your business can be considerable, with temporary business closure or even worse, permanent closure of your business.
Exterminating Cockroaches
We offer a rapid same day response to safely and quickly deal with the extermination of cockroaches across Hillingdon, South Bucks, the Three Rivers district and the surrounding areas.
Where To Find Cockroaches
Usually nocturnal, cockroaches spend the day hiding in cracks and crevices around such areas as sinks, drains, cookers, the backs of cupboards and in refrigerator motor compartments.
Cockroaches will eat almost any organic matter no matter how rancid. Once inside the home, they will seek out food, scraps, unsealed food containers, sugar and grease deposits, pet food, rancid meat, glue and even book bindings, they also eat each others fecces.
They rest during daylight hours in dark warm secure areas in your home, such as wall cavities, the sub-floor, roof void, cracks and crevices in the kitchen and bathroom, electrical appliances and foodstuffs.
They will emerge from these harbourages in the still of night, and if you see cockroaches during the day, you have a heavy infestation and a serious cockroach control problem.

Excellent service! Came out promptly to inspect a suspected wasp nest and carried out a thorough check around the property. Thankfully there wasn’t a nest after all, and he was completely honest about it and didn’t charge for the call-out. Very professional, friendly, and trustworthy. Highly recommended and would definitely use again if needed.

Gerry answered my call and came out on a Sunday morning during the bank holiday weekend to deal with a Wasp nest. He dealt with it very quickly and was extremely friendly. Would highly recommend him if you have similar issues!

I contacted Gerry as I thought I had a wasp problem. He came round on the same day. He informed me that I actually had bees not wasps. He was extremely helpful and even though he doesn't deal with bees, he gave me information on who to contact.. He didn't charge anything for coming out. I have used Gerry on a previous occasion when I did have wasps and he was excellent. Gerry is very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Gerry.

Saw I had a wasp problem (under the tiles, hundreds of them going in and out). Called Gerry, amazed when he answered the phone instantly as was Sunday evening! He said he would be round tomorrow so I paid the £165 and he came next day, did the job and sent me a text saying all done, they won't come back and his work is guaranteed. Great person and a great job!

I contacted Gerry - The Wasp Man after discovering an alarming number of wasps around my property. He was incredibly responsive and came out the same day, which was a huge relief. Not only did he locate two hidden nests, but he handled the removal swiftly and professionally. The whole process was done efficiently with minimal disruption—exactly what you’d hope for in a situation like this. Highly recommend his services if you’re looking for someone reliable, skilled, and prompt!

Gerry was great and I would recommend him to anyone. Gerry responded quickly to my message and dealt efficiently with a very angry wasps nest my mum had accidently disturbed in her garden. He sorted everything out whilst we were still in A&E getting treatment for 40+ stings! Mum was very relieved to come home knowing they were gone. We didn't get to meet Gerry in person but he was very friendly and professional on the phone. Thank you Gerry!

One evening, I noticed a few wasps inside my bathroom but wasn’t sure where they were coming from. I contacted Gerry late at night, and by 8am the next morning, he had already been in touch and arranged to visit the same day. Gerry quickly identified the location of the nest, which was on my roof, and treated it effectively.
A week later, I thought I could still see a few wasps around the garden near the roof. No one else in my household could spot them, but because I was so concerned, Gerry kindly came back the same day to repeat spraying.
Fantastic service-thank you for your help!

Great job by a professional. I called Gerry and he asked for video to help see where the wasps were going in and out of the nest hidden in a tree stump in the garden. He was in the area and made it to mine within an hour . He treated the nest and the wasps were cleared within another hour!

I reached out to Gerry about a wasp infestation on a Sunday morning. He was incredibly helpful, explaining the procedure in a professional and friendly manner. He arrived on the same day and on time, coming by noon to resolve the issue. I'm really glad I contacted him.

I spoke to Gerry (The Wasp Man) from Total Pest Control about the wasp nest in our conservatory and he was there within the hour to deal with it. He was extremely professional, explained all about the procedure before doing a thorough examination to see the extent of the infestation. He then carried out the work efficiently and I’m happy to say the wasps are gone! Gerry was friendly, cheerful and knowledgeable I’m very happy to recommend him 😊

I called Gerry as I had a swarm of bees in my garden. He advised that we cannot harm them and he arranged for a beekeeper to come out and take them. They came that evening and removed approx 25k bees from a tree in my garden! Thank you Gerry for your fast and efficient help 👍

One happy customer and one swarm of bee's safely saved. Thanks for your help Gerry 👍

Exceptional service! Gerry is very professional and friendly. After I contacted him for the first time he came to our house the same day, within a few hours to get rid of a mouse issue. Every occasion he came he always gave me an ETA and was very timely. He was really thorough and set traps and bait to ensure he covered all bases after inspecting our house.
He went above and beyond, gave invaluable advise as to how to block any potential entry points. Within 3.5 hours he worked his magic and his traps caught the mouse. He'd asked me to contact him if anything was caught and as promised, true to his word came the next day to dispose of it. Gerry did not charge me anything for this follow-up visit. We continued to monitor the traps and after a week it was safe to say there was only just the one that got in! He left some monitoring bait just in case to keep our mind at ease and was willing to leave the traps for a further week if we wanted.
He is the best in the field and has a lot of patience and dedication. While I hope we do not need any further pest control assistance, I would definitely call on him again should we do so. I cannot recommend him highly enough – nothing short of excellent if there were more stars would add them!

Gerry is very professional and responsible. After I contacted him for the first time in August, he came to my house the next day to get rid of the wasps. He examined the situation carefully and applied spray to extinguish the wasp nest. He promised to take care of the issue until the end of this year. A few days ago, I noticed some wasps appearing around my house again. When I reported this to Gerry, he promptly came to my house the next day to assess the situation. He examined it carefully and explained in detail that the wasps might be from the neighboring house and passing by mine. True to his word, Gerry did not charge me anything for this follow-up visit. I truly appreciate his dedication, and I'm happy to provide positive feedback here. I am confident that I will contact Gerry again if I encounter any future wasp problems.

Today we thought we had a huge infestation of wasps, Gerry attended extremely quickly and was friendly and professional. He went to the garden to investigate and realised they were in fact honey bees. He was very knowledgeable and let us know about the bees behaviour reassuring us we need not worry as they would not be sticking around. Thank you so much would definitely call Gerry again in the future and recommend to others.
