With over 30 years of industry experience, Aberkil Pest Control is certainly one of the go-to pest control companies in Aberdeen.

As proof of their expertise, they are members of the Basis Prompt scheme, assuring customers that they’ve received proper training. They are also affiliated with the National Pest Technicians Association (NPTA), proof that they are up-to-code.

Another mark of their expertise is being winners of Three Best Rated’s Top 3 Pest Control in Aberdeen. These accreditations and recognitions would certainly help in putting a customer’s mind at ease.

Unlike other services, they are actually open all week. In fact, they are open 24 hours, which allow them to respond to emergency call-outs.

We also admire their fast response times, and they are even known to arrive within an hour of the call.

Unlike other firms, they are equipped to handle residential and commercial call-outs. In fact, they have existing commercial contracts with businesses in the food industry.

A unique service they offer is solar panel proofing against pigeon ingression. This preventive method against pigeon nesting will help prevent damage and ensure that your solar panels last longer.

Comparatively, however, they can be a bit pricey. They are known to charge £200 just for a site visit, not including pest control services, and that is for a visit that lasts less than an hour. 

Customers have also reported communication mix-ups; however, these were handled promptly, which we appreciate.

Pest Solutions was founded back in 2001, and their two decades of experience have enabled them to become an industry leader in the pest control market.

This is backed up by the numerous industry awards they have received. Recent accolades include 2021’s Technician of the Year and Young Technician of the Year by the UK National Pest Awards.

On top of these awards, they also have several important accreditations. First, they are members of the British Pest Control Association (BPCA), which ensures that they strictly follow the codes of best practice.

They are also affiliated with “Citizen, European, Professional, Aspirational” (CEPA), unlike other companies.

This organisation makes sure that companies meet specific competencies and allows them to exchange knowledge with European industry experts. Meaning, Pest Solutions has access to a wider range of  industry methods and knowledge.

Unlike other companies, they are also open 24/7, and they offer a rapid response service for emergency needs. 

We like the fact that they offer free identification surveys, while other companies do not. Also, they charge only £60 for their height and investigative surveys, which is refundable if you decide to hire them.

Some of their unique services are grey squirrel, rabbit, and mole removals. Unlike other firms, they have wildlife specialist technicians that are equipped to remove these animals.

Unfortunately, due to them being in high demand, they have comparatively slower response times. While other companies guarantee to come out within a few minutes or hours, they can only guarantee that they’ll arrive within 24 hours.

Also, customers have pointed out communication issues with their office staff, stating that they were slightly rude. 

Having had 16 years of experience in the pest control sector, E.P.C. Pest Control is certainly an impressive company. They can efficiently handle all of the Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire areas.

We are quite impressed with their speedy response times. They are open 7 days a week, and the average time from the customer’s request to their treatment is 1 hour.

Unlike other companies, they actually offer affordable monthly or annual commercial and residential contracts. In fact, you can hire them for as little as £10.00 per month, for a minimum of three months.

Not only that, they also have a price match promise, which is great for those who already have existing 12-month contracts with other companies. If you show them your contractual price, they guarantee to beat the price for the same level of cover.

In terms of services, they specialise in wasp nest removals, especially in those hard-to-reach areas. They are able to treat them with different types of insecticides, depending on the location and the situation.

Sadly, they are only equipped to handle mice, rats, ants, wasps, and bed bugs. For birds or other wildlife such as squirrels or rabbits, you would need to hire someone else.

Also, even though they are open seven days a week, they do not offer emergency call-out services unlike other companies.

Grampian Pest Control has been providing effective pest control services for over 10 years. In our book, this makes them one of the best in the pest control business.

For their expertise and dedication, they were awarded one of the Top 3 Pest Control in Aberdeen by Three Best Rated. We think this is admirable since they’ve beaten out numerous contenders in order to be recognised.

We like that their technicians are qualified to industry standards with level 2 certificates in ‘Pest Control & Management.’ This proves that they are capable and equipped to handle pest infestations, rodenticide, and the safe use and transportation of chemicals. 

A unique pest control service they offer is their fox control services. This includes the baiting and trapping of foxes in residential and commercial properties such as farms.

We also appreciate that they have highly-competitive prices. Customers have stated that, with the same inclusions, they were able to provide cheaper quotes compared to other companies.

Sadly, they are not equipped to handle 24/7 emergency services, since they close at 9 during weekends and noontime on weekends. If you suddenly find a wasp nest or a fox in your home or yard during non-regular hours, you’d need to call someone else.

Also, some customers have stated that there were times they were unable to secure a booking. This might be due to them being in high demand and also servicing a wider range of areas compared to other companies.

Eliminate Ltd is another qualified and experienced pest control service that is open 24/7. Due to their hours of operation, they are able to offer a rapid response call-out service.

For non-emergencies, we are actually impressed with their speedy response time. They can arrive within 4 hours of the call, unlike other companies that guarantee only to arrive within 24 hours.

We really admire how they practise ethical and responsible pest control methods. They actually favour a combination of good housekeeping, non-toxic control methods, and re-education over traditional pest control means as much as possible.

Unlike other companies, they offer deer control services. They are fully equipped to take care of unwanted deer in farms, plantations, and woodlands.

They also offer a disinfection service that would highly complement their pest control services. For instance, one can hire them to disinfect their home after carrying out a rodent control service, which is quite convenient.

Additionally, they also offer landfill falconry services, which other companies do not. They are fully equipped to provide a complete bird management solution using only humane methods.

Due to their use of subcontractors, however, they can be a bit pricier compared to other companies who use their own employees.

Also, we heard reports of customers being charged for pest control services even though their issues were not resolved. We believe they should have been given discounts if they were not able to resolve these issues.
