One recent review read:

These guys were great. Unfortunately, we had a suspected rat between our floorboards and expected to have a huge amount of damage. The guys came and were able to lift the carpet in the upstairs bedroom and a floorboard to find and remove the rat and plug the entrance point. They then re-fitted the floorboard and carpet as though nothing had happened. Quick, efficient, and most importantly, got the job done. Highly recommend.

No job is too big or small. Whether it is a wasp nest in your roofline or an infestation in your kitchen, we can help.

Pest control FAQs

How long does pest control take?

The time it takes to remove pests will depend on a number of factors, including the type of pest and level of infestation. Some pest removal treatments take longer than others, and our technicians will be able to advise you accordingly.

What colour are carpet beetle eggs?

Carpet beetle eggs measure approximately 0.25 to 0.5mm. They are typically white or cream-coloured.

What are the differences between a bed bug and a mite infestation?

While both mites and bed bugs can cause skin irritation, a key difference lies in their feeding habits. Bed bugs exclusively feed on blood, biting their victims at night. Mites primarily consume bodily fluids and dead skin cells, rarely biting humans.

When do hornets die?

Like wasps, hornet colonies experience seasonal die-off, with workers and males perishing in autumn or winter. Only fertilised queens endure, overwintering to establish new nests the following spring. They do not die after a sting and can sting multiple times.

Where do carpet beetles lay their eggs?

Adult carpet beetles seek out egg-laying sites with ample larval food sources, focusing on hidden areas. They prefer locations shielded from direct sunlight, such as along skirting boards or shaded corners.

Bed bug control in Three Bridges

Crawley and Three Bridges are well-known urban areas in West Sussex, with a mix of residential and commercial properties. Unfortunately, bed bugs can be an issue in all areas where humans reside. These small, parasitic insects feed on human and animal blood and can travel easily on clothing, luggage and soft furnishings. They have a flat profile and can survive in the tiniest of cracks, such as between joints in bedroom furniture.

If you are concerned about a bed bug infestation, you must call in the professionals. They can be hard to spot and treat, and we have extensive experience in eradicating and exterminating bed bugs. Bedbugs are becoming resistant to many treatments, and our team will be able to advise you accordingly.

Laura Shaw

I contacted Effective Pest Solutions for a rat infestation, and I couldn’t have asked for more thorough service.
Kush inspected every corner of the house, handled the problem confidently, and didn’t leave until everything was completely taken care of. Very professional, very discreet — and let’s just say he went above and beyond in more ways than one.
Five stars. The rat problem is gone, and I was left extremely satisfied with the service.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Kerry Burley

Kush & Ryan where very helpful, when i called originally i thought i had rats, however, over the phone they diagnosed I have squirrels. I was sceptical at first, however, they resolved the issue efficiently & professionally within the price originally agreed, they were very transparent with all the charges & came out on the same day.
Would highly recommend.

Kush has been a superstar throughout helping us with our issue. He has been happy to answer my many and varied questions and concerns and offered advice. He has been quick, efficient, shown care for the property, and been friendly and polite throughout. Pricing is more than reasonable for the service offered and he made sure the issue is completely resolved. I recommend this business to anyone who has a need for the services they offer without reservation.

Jack Colquhoun

Kush was brilliant and really responsive when I had a squirrel issue, he got the problem sorted quickly and included the proofing as part of the package

Vishal Patel

Effective pest solutions have been great, they quickly answered my query regarding a noise I heard. They quickly identified I have a rat issue. They arrived within 2 working days and started the treatment to remove. Prior to coming, they were transparent with all charges and any extras if required which I accepted. The final visit had been completed, and I no longer have any Rat issues. As an additional value add, they advised me on how to mouse proof the outside, and saved me costs by showing me what to do myself. Highly recommend due to professionalism, communication and getting the job done!

I dealt with Kush and he's been very professional and efficient. I had an emergency on a bank holiday Monday and they were the only ones available (other local companies didn't even bother calling). I had a valve installed in the drain and everything has run smoothly. I think it's good value for money because it's not just a one off, there's follow up visits too.

Feraz S
