Mercury Pest Control was excellent. Super efficient and went above and beyond! Harry was fantastic and I can’t thank him enough.

Dan Francis

We have had the pleasure of working with Mercury Pest Control for our pest management needs at Ascension Church 3 plus years and continue to use them. From the very beginning, their team was professional, punctual, and extremely thorough in addressing issues we were facing and now barely a pest in sight. They carefully assessed the property, ensuring no corners were overlooked.

Lirian and co are super friendly, knowledgeable, and make sure to explain the process in detail, so we know exactly what to expect. They also provided helpful tips for preventing future infestations.

Highly recommend!

Lirian went above and beyond in all areas. Always available to talk on the phone, came back multiple times at short notice. Explained his process and helped us resolve the issue where others had failed.
Highly recommended. Exceptional service.

I am a Property Manager for a Property Management Company. I would highly recommend Mercury Pest Control. I have used their services for many years for our properties in London. The Office staff, engineers and managers are always very friendly, professional, knowledgeable and always keep you updated throughout the entire process, from setting up the appointment to the final treatment.

Richard Stokes

The company is extremely professional in its study, diagnosis, communication, application and execution. I am very happy to recommend them. I can’t speak highly enough of my point of contact Lirian who was very thorough as well as highly efficient in all his undertakings. His communication skills are excellent and he follows through on everything he suggests (a rare commodity these days). Through his efforts he made a very stressful experience manageable and produced the sought-after solution (which was not straight forward). Also the company’s charges are reasonable for the quality of service offered. So hence why this review is so positive across the board. Lirian also adds that personal touch which helps underpin and move the whole process forward.

I honestly can’t praise Mercury Pest Control and lovely Lirian highly enough. My elderly Mum had a horrible rat infestation under her stairs and he treated the situation with such kindness & sensitivity, which was hugely appreciated by us all. Most importantly though the issue was dealt with incredibly efficiently and quickly. Thank you thank you 🤩

Modern day knights! We cannot overstate how fantastic these guys were. Super informed, super helpful and super efficient. Our standing stand a chance. ‘‘Tis a rare thing nowadays; a company that turns up, is charming, knows what they are doing, actually follows up and low and beyond fixes the issue. Amazing. Thank you so much.

Juliet Clark

I contacted Mercury Pest Control based on their reviews and was not disappointed. David made a somewhat miserable situation a million times better. Not only was he incredibly efficient at solving the problem, but his kindness and professionalism throughout the whole process was truly remarkable. From the initial consultation to final treatment every step was handled with care and expertise. I highly recommend Mercury Pest Control to anyone in need of these services. They should be your first port of call!

We recently saw a rat in our house and enquired for help from Mercury Pest Control. Lirian was extremely responsive and gave excellent support regarding the situation whilst also being reassuring. Lirian and the team have been extremely professional and i would recommend their services to anyone who is having pest issues.

Nicholas Adams

Our property faced a significant rat infestation, causing heightened concern and stress for our young family. Lirian and his team displayed exceptional proficiency by promptly identifying access points and formulating a comprehensive treatment plan that effectively eliminated the issue. Lirian's adept reassurance and calming demeanor throughout the procedure were noteworthy, making our experience with Mercury Pest Control highly commendable. Gratitude to Lirian and the entire team for their exceptional service.

On the 4th visit senior technician has been left upstairs on his own as I needed to attend to my baby. Three days later I realised part of my jewellery went missing. He denied, however we had no other visitors/cleaners, people that would be left unattended. This has been reported to the police.
Never trust anyone, even if they seem extremely nice, profesional and trustworthy. People are truly unpredictable.

A very professional service. Polite and punctual.
David explained everything re procedure to get rid of mice under the kitchen sink. Very reassuring.
Highly recommended.

Alexandra Burrell

Dave was fantastic. I was so worried about having a mouse infestation but Dave reassured me, sorted out the issue with minimal mess and went above and beyond to make sure the mouse was never to be seen again. I couldn’t recommend these guys more highly!

Leyla Nikpay

I recently moved into my new flat and discovered some moths in one of the utility cupboards. I immediately rang around for some quotes and out of the seven pest control companies I spoke to, Mercury really stood out. Lirian was very informative and was super helpful. The next day, David came over and did the first of two treatments. They have been amazing - I have messaged them in between visits for advice and they have always got back to me! Hopefully the issue is now sorted - appreciate these guys and definitely recommend!!!

Sophie McDonald

14:21 02 Aug 23

Called Mercury Pest Control when we discovered a wasp nest in our loft area. They were able to visit the next day to deal with the nest and did a great job. They were super friendly and explained everything clearly. The job was fully guaranteed so they would have come back for free if any wasps remained but this was not needed. Great value and would recommend and use again!

5 STARS *****

Really friendly staff and owner. They are the only pest control company I spoke to, who show empathy and actually care. Because of this I will only use them going forward. Also, they are very flexible and have good time management. Their pricing is Fair/competitive and they provide an efficient and quick service. Thank you all so much for your help 🙂

Emma Morris

Lirian is a really nice guy and very pleasant to deal, the mice were dealt with using poison which he kindly left down as my dog can’t get in the loft! I have not had any problems since and am very grateful! Very helpful and professional and I would definitely recommend.

Elma de Kuiper

15:20 22 May 23

I cannot recommend these guys highly enough, they really know their stuff and are a pleasure to deal with in spite of the problem they are addressing being anything but. After building works we had rats coming out of the manhole in our garden because it had not been capped off properly by our builder. I have been terrified to say the least and these guys have spent many phone calls and texts talking to me and explaining the situation. They helped with baiting, installing a rat barrier in the drain, assessing risks in the house and also recommended a quality drainage company for us when their inspection uncovered some more serious issues with the drain under our house that might have contributed to the problem. The only thing that I think would elevate these guys further would be if they were able to invest in camera equipment to inspect the drain themselves, that is a suggestion to them rather than a criticism. I honestly can’t fault them. Thank you David and Lirian for your thoroughness and professionalism!

S Buckland

08:59 06 May 23

Professional, effective and understanding of my total fear of mice. Problem dealt with in a way that was also safe for my dog. I’m sure I will not be seeing you again soon, but I will not hesitate to call if I needed too. Big thanks!

10:27 28 Apr 23

Lirian and Mercury pest control were amazing. No one wants to have to deal with this but these guys make you feel assured and confident that the problem is being taken care of. We had issues in our backyard with rats burrowing from back alleyways and neighbours. Lirian quickly diagnosed the problem, throughly inspected and treated it and gave us really good tips on how to manage it longer term. As well as how to deal with issues with neighbours.
Thanks Lirian!

Thomas Reid

22:01 10 Feb 23

We can’t say enough good things about Lirian - absolutely fantastic! He came to our home at short notice and was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to solve our issue and we’re very grateful. Highly recommended - thank you Lirian!

Lirian was very experienced and thorough in checking for the source of entry for a rat problem we had in the kitchen extension roof void. His advice that it was the sewers was spot on. He provided support and advice even after he concluded his visits on dealing with Thames Water to get them to jet clean the sewers. After the clean, the rodent problem ceased.

Kimberley Wadsworth

16:57 23 Jan 23

Lirian was fantastic! He called by and got the job done in really good time. He communicated well and turned up on time. He was kind enough to visit at a time and date that suited us too. Cant recommend them enough! Ill be using them for all my other needs for sure.

I really recommend Lirian and Dave, they were both amazing.

I contacted mercury pest control a few weeks a great as I saw rats coming into my garden. The were very efficient and quick to act. They came over the next day and spent time looking for all the entry points so that they could be as effective as possible. They took there time and did not rush like other companies. They clearly explained the process and after 3 visits the rat problem had gone away. They then proofed all the entry points so that it would be harder for them to try this again.

I would definitely recommend them. Great service really polite and always accommodating.

Thanks!

Pest control London tips: preventing a moth infestation

Longer days and warmer temperatures only mean one thing. Summer is on its way. Unfortunately, this also means that the common clothes moth could also be on its way to destroy your home or business. In general, moths will thrive in warm, dark areas where they can nest and, most importantly, lay eggs. There are, however, some proactive steps you can take to prevent a common clothes moth infestation this summer, in particular:

Clear out storage cupboards: avoid hoarding lots of items in storage cupboards, lofts and garages. In particular, regularly clear cabinets out to prevent the risk of infestation. Safely store keratin items that contain keratin such as wool, cashmere and felt. Do not keep off-cuts of carpets in loft spaces.
Hoover regularly: particularly in dark areas in your home or business which do not have a regular light source. Early signs of a moth infestation may include moth casings on your carpet.
Rugs: that are rolled up and stored away should be checked frequently for signs of an infestation, regardless of whether it is covered as moths can chew through a covering. It is also advisable to replace the felt base of a rug with rubber sheeting that does not contain keratin.
Pheromone traps are small sticky traps that are an excellent way of protecting your home or business from a significant infestation. It is advisable to place these traps in several locations around your home and can be one of the quickest ways of identifying if you have moths. Whenever the traps start to collect moths, it is advisable to seek a professional pest control company’s services. We provide free on-site surveys for common clothes moths. Contact us today for your free site survey.
