Insect Pests

Pest control is a service which ensures that the health of South Cambridgeshire is not threatened by pests and vermin. Legally the Council is obliged to ensure that our streets, buildings and sewers are as free as possible from mice, rats and other vermin.

The Pest Control team are here to advise and help residents of South Cambridgeshire, and, in certain cases, take action on pest problems that you may have in your home, whether you are a homeowner, leaseholder, private tenant or council tenant.
