Managing Agents

It is important to note that when infestations and pest control remedies on multi-dwelling properties are required, local authorities usually charge the more expensive ‘Commercial’ remedy. The general perception is that local authorities are always the cheapest – when on closer inspection the best cost benefit solution may actually lie elsewhere.

Legally the ultimate responsibility of the property is with the landlord or land-owner to keep their assets free from pests. They are therefore very reliant on their managing agent to protect their interests and reputation. With this in mind the prospective pest control services company needs to offer the managing agent complete assurance through proof of their efficiency, a high level of client service and price competitiveness. It is for these reasons why Shield Pest Control is recognised as an industry leading service provider for managing agents.
