📢 IMPORTANT CUSTOMER UPDATE FROM PERISH-A-PEST
Firstly, we’d like to thank every customer who has supported Perish-A-Pest over the years. Whether we’ve helped with a wasp nest, resolved a rodent problem, protected your business through a pest management contract, or simply provided advice when you needed it, your support is genuinely appreciated.
As many people are aware, the cost of running a business continues to rise. Fuel, vehicle maintenance, insurance, treatment products, equipment, training, compliance requirements, waste disposal, professional memberships and general operating costs have all increased significantly in recent years.
For a long time, we have absorbed as much of these increases as possible. However, to ensure we can continue providing the high level of service our customers deserve, we will be making some small adjustments to our pricing structure.
We want to reassure customers that these are modest increases and not major changes. Our aim is simply to keep pace with rising costs while continuing to invest in the quality, professionalism and reliability of the service we provide.
What won’t change is our commitment to delivering honest advice, professional service and effective pest control solutions.
In fact, whilst operating costs have increased, we have continued to invest heavily in improving the business, our knowledge and the service we provide.
Over the years, Perish-A-Pest has continued to develop by investing in:
✅ Ongoing professional training and industry development.
✅ Improved treatment methods and monitoring systems.
✅ Enhanced reporting, record keeping and customer communication.
✅ Better equipment and service standards.
✅ Improved customer aftercare and support.
✅ Continued investment in compliance, safety and professional development.
✅ Supporting local organisations and community initiatives.
We are proud to be:
⭐ Cornwall Trading Standards Approved
⭐ DBS Checked
⭐ Fully Insured
⭐ Professionally Trained in Pest Management
⭐ Supporters of Cornwall Pride’s Safer Spaces Scheme
⭐ Sponsors of Local Grassroots Sport
⭐ Committed to Continuous Professional Development
Being a professional pest control company involves far more than simply turning up and putting down bait. It requires ongoing training, investment, insurance, compliance, record keeping, safe working practices and keeping up to date with changing legislation and industry best practice.
We have always believed that if customers are paying for a service, they deserve a company that is constantly improving rather than standing still.
Our goal has never been to be the cheapest pest control company in Cornwall.
Our goal is to provide a professional, reliable and trustworthy service that delivers genuine value, honest advice and long-term solutions.
Unlike many larger national companies, when you contact Perish-A-Pest, you deal directly with the person carrying out the work. There are no call centres, no sales teams, no subcontractors and no being passed from department to department.
Just honest, local pest control from someone who genuinely cares about solving the problem properly.
These small pricing adjustments will allow us to continue investing in the business, improving our services and maintaining the standards our customers have come to expect from Perish-A-Pest.
We appreciate that nobody likes price increases, least of all us, and this decision has not been taken lightly. However, we firmly believe that continuing to improve our service, knowledge and professionalism provides the best possible value for our customers.
Thank you for your continued support, recommendations, reviews and trust.
It is a privilege to serve homes and businesses across Cornwall, and we look forward to continuing to do so for many years to come.
