Pest Control Services in Pimlico SW1V

Pimlico, SW1V

Pimlico sits between Victoria station, Vauxhall Bridge Road and the Thames. Its streets are the white stucco terraces built by Thomas Cubitt in the nineteenth century, around squares such as Warwick Square, Eccleston Square and St George's Square, with Tachbrook Street market, the shops of Warwick Way and the Churchill Gardens and Lillington Gardens estates.

Hotels and short stays

The terraces nearest Victoria, along Belgrave Road and Warwick Way, have long been small hotels and guest houses. Guests bring bed bugs in luggage, and in a converted terrace they can move through party walls into the next building. We inspect, treat and record, and brief housekeeping teams on what to look for. See bed bug treatment and pest control for hotels.

Terraces split into flats

Most Cubitt houses are now four or five flats, each with its own kitchen but sharing a basement, a light well and a common staircase. Mice move through the whole building, so a treatment that stops at one front door rarely lasts. We look at the lower ground floor, the vaults under the pavement and the gaps where pipes rise between flats. See mouse control.

Rats by the river

Grosvenor Road and the riverside estates are close to the Thames and to large sewers, and rats come up into gardens and bin stores. See rat control.

Westminster City Council pest control

Westminster City Council's pest team works for council tenants and leaseholders, council buildings and parks. Tenants' treatments are covered by their tenancy agreement and leaseholders are recharged through the service charge. The council says its trading team is not taking on further private or business work at this time. See the council's pest control page.
