As the world changes, we see more and more residential and commercial areas being built in and around Birmingham City. Along with new restaurants, takeaways and public areas, pest infestations are on the rise. Council budget cuts have resulted in free of charge pest control services in Birmingham being reduced and, in some cases, completely removed. This has resulted in many homes and businesses having to find alternative ways to rid their properties of pests.
