    Hi folks,
    Would anybody have a recommendation for a pest control company please? I've noticed a few cheese loving creatures near the back door outside. I'm nearly sure one has come in already.
    TIA

    If you ring the local number (available on the website) they will give you a cost. I haven't used them for rodents so can't comment. I have used them for other services and AFAIR it was a couple of hundred squids. I might be wrong on that, better ring and ask.

    You could buy you own bait boxes first and give it a go. I have had good success with them. They can be bought in any co-op or hardware store. Might be worth a try first.

    This is a good idea - if you are doing it yourself, note that rats are hoarders so make sure any bait is anchored or in tiny pieces so they'll eat it rather than carry it away to hoard. Mice will eat what's laid out for them.

    Ive rang a few companies and it would cost the bones of at least €250 for them to come out. The bait boxes sound like a brilliant idea so will give them a try first. Thanks for the ideas!

    Use Storm for bait the rest are not great any coop will have it.

    Woodies have good bait boxes.
