Torfaen County Borough Council no longer provides a pest control service.

Residents will need to contact a private pest control company for problems with rats, mice, bedbugs or cockroaches.

Advice on dealing with different kinds of pests and finding a local pest control company is available on the British Pest Control Association (opens in new tab) website.

The council will continue to provide a commercial contract service for local businesses, and will investigate reports from residents on pest infestations from neighbouring properties. For information contact the council’s Public Protection Team.
