⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely outstanding service from Pest Shield North East! I honestly cannot recommend Pest Shield North East highly enough. From start to finish, the service was exceptional. Neil, the pest controller who attended my property, was absolutely fantastic. His knowledge and expertise were second to none. He identified the issue almost immediately, which allowed me to get to the root cause and rectify the problem within my property. What really stood out, though, was Neil himself. He is genuinely one of the nicest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with and meeting. Professional, friendly, approachable and clearly passionate about what he does. It’s not often you come across someone who combines such a high level of knowledge with such a brilliant personality. A massive thank you to Neil and Pest Shield North East. If you’re looking for a reliable, knowledgeable and genuinely decent company, look no further. Five stars all day long. Absolutely first-class service!!

I used this company recently for pigeon removal and they worked in the most humane manner. I told them of my concerns with any young chicks and was told they would save them so I could take to the rescue charity. They respected my request. I was updated as the work commenced. From making the first initial call, I was given very thorough information and sound advice compared to others I called. The technician was friendly and efficient and it didn’t take long at all and any mess was also removed. A once and done job and I have recommended to a friend since. The cost was fair as they are licensed. Definitely the best for the job. Thank you!

Neil arrived with Alfie and explained Alfie was in training he asked if I would be happy for Alfie to carry out the work under his supervision which I was. Neil clearly explained what they would be doing and what results I could expect. Alfie did an excellent job and showed great professionalism he will be a real asset to the team. I would have no hesitation in recommending pest shield to anyone they provided an excellent service and dealt with the issue effectively and effectively

The team supported me through an extremely difficult time. My dad had a rat infestation while in hospital. This was cleared. Then the team gave the house a full bioclean. Dad was unable to return home due to ill health. The team then carried out a full house cleaning leaving the house immaculate. The communication from Alison and Laura was superb. They were reliable and trustworthy. I would recommend this company without hesitation!
