What Pest-tech Limited does

Pest-Tech Limited is a UK private limited company founded in 2013 and headquartered in Maidstone, Kent, providing pest control, bird proofing, wildlife management, and specialist cleaning services for residential and commercial customers. Its core offering is delivered by a small team (1–10 employees) of RSPH Level 2 qualified, BPCA-certified field technicians operating across approximately 17 towns in Kent and the surrounding Medway area. The service catalogue spans rodent control (rats, mice, squirrels), insect control (wasps, bed bugs, cockroaches, fleas, ants, moths, flies, silverfish), bird proofing (netting, spikes, mesh, post-and-wire, solar panel protection), wildlife management, and post-infestation clearance including loft cleaning and drain/vent proofing. Proprietary or differentiated physical tooling includes drain survey cameras for rat entry-point identification, ULV fogging equipment for insect extermination, heat sensors for nest location, and heat/steam systems for bed bug eradication across all life stages.

The business operates a dual-channel revenue model. Residential work is transacted as one-off paid-at-booking treatments with 24/7 emergency availability, while commercial clients — including schools, hotels, restaurants, warehouses, retail establishments, and supermarkets — are served through bespoke annual service contracts providing recurring integrated pest management with preventative monitoring, regulatory compliance under the Prevention of Damage by Pests Act 1949, and proofing measures. Pricing is quote-based for commercial contracts and fixed for residential treatments, with out-of-hours and weekend surcharges, a £50+vat missed appointment fee, and a £40+vat admin fee plus 8% over Bank of England base rate on overdue invoices. The company holds multiple credentials (BPCA membership ID 7628, KCC Trading Standards Checked, RSPH Level 2, Natural England bird removal licensing, and Amlin UK professional indemnity/public liability insurance) and trades under the dual brands Pest-Tech and Nightshift Pest Control.
