Unplanned callouts fix symptoms, not causes. A pest control contract gives you scheduled visits, monitoring, proofing advice and rapid support when activity spikes—keeping homes and businesses compliant, protected and predictable on cost. Pest Shield provides flexible contracts across the North East with clear documentation after every visit.
Why choose a contract
Compliance & audits: EHO-ready paperwork with site plans, findings, photos, product records and COSHH.
Prevention first: Routine checks and trend analysis stop small issues becoming infestations.
Fast response: Priority callouts included or discounted, agreed SLAs and straightforward pricing.
Consistency: Named local technician who knows your site, routes and seasonal risks.
Contract options
Food businesses: Restaurants, cafés, takeaways and production sites. We design programmes to meet Food Safety and HACCP requirements, including insect monitoring points, bait station mapping and glass/foreign body controls where needed.
Landlords & lettings: Block inspections, responsive treatments and simple reporting for tenants and agents.
Private homes: Sensible quarterly or bi-monthly schedules for properties with recurring pressure (near watercourses, dense terraced streets or rural edges).
Commercial & public buildings: Schools, healthcare, logistics, retail parks and offices, with out-of-hours visits to avoid disruption.
