I can't believe that I had forgotten to give these guys a mention in all this time that I've being writing reviews - especially since they did such a good job! Anyway, I'll tell you the full story - here goes. I'm terrified of wasps. I don't imagine many of you love them, but I think my fear certainly borders on manic. Phobia, yes - and then some. So imagine my horror when I discover that there's a sort of 90% probability that we have a wasps nest in our loft? Yep. I was *not* happy, let's put it that way. So not happy I was imagining them crawling on me as I dropped off to sleep. *Shudder* So, given that our estate agent had, even a month or so in, had such a bad track record that I decided to get straight on the phone to Rentokil rather than wait for them to sort it and have to put up with weeks of restless sleep at every buzz and flutter. I phoned them direct and they booked an appointment for one of their chaps to come over the next day - awesome! They took some details and said that their guy would give me a quick ring before arrival. Of course, my housemate was concerned that we didn't really have a nest, and so volunteered to have a quick check first. In a twist of fate I was hoping that there was one now as I didn't want to have to call back and cancel, thus messing Rentokil around! Anway. Armed with one can of raid, and one 500watt flood light, as stupidly we had no torch, he climbed up into the loft space. Now, there are no stairs and certainly there is no easy way of climbing up and down without full use of both hands, so I was getting twitchy about this. Within about 5 seconds a bit fat wasp came flying about my housemates head. Oh dear. He killed it with raid, and a second later, a second arrived. Then a third. Within seconds. Getting nervy he decided to come down, threw me the raid (as I debated fleeing and leaving him to his doom - I was blooming scared!) and quickly jumped down. We closed the loft and decided it was best the Rentokil man come by. Realising that he was in the dark, in the loft, with a massive light and a definite wasps nest was enough to convince him it seemed! So, the next day our guy comes round and in *full protective gear* he ascends the loft. Using some bashy stick equipment and a torch to *attract* them he successfully kills the nest! It was over in a matter of an hour, if that. He explained to my other housemate that Adam must be a pretty brave man to have climbed in the loft with a torch, since that's what they use to attract the wasps as they attack it and get angry about the light, believing it to be dangerous! And to do that with no protective clothing - since the nest had gotten bigger than a *football* - was even braver, he said!! Oh how we laughed, realising that it could have gone so horribly horribly wrong. Bravery was not even it, stupidity and ignorance it was. I think the whole service cost about £90, for the call out and the destruction, which I think is excellent. Especially given that he came the very next day. My only regret is that I didn't keep a hold of the chap's name so as to recommend him personally. He was friendly, informative, efficient and did a great job. Like a modern day knight in a big wasp-proof coat of arms. Yey! read more

An absolute nightmare from start to finish / unfinished, they took advantage of my wife's fragile state, totally undelivered on what was promised and then failed to answer any correspndence / return any calls- from branch to Chief executive level.
