Ken has very expertly dealt with wasps nests at may home on a few ocasions. He is always very efficient, comes at short notice and most importantly he gets rid of the problem rapidly! He is very friendly and helpful, and totally trustworthy.He always offers to come back if the wasps do not go away, but this has never been necessary.

I had a wasps nest in my porch which Ken dealt with. Ken was able to come the same day I initially called which didn’t suit me but he was able to come on the day of my choosing. He dealt efficiently with the nest in an awkward place and there was good communication with him all around.

I called Ken on Monday regarding a problem that I was experiencing with pigeons roosting under an overhanging roof, on Tuesday he came to have a look at the problem. We agreed that the best solution was to fit spikes on the 2 surfaces causing the nuisance. On the Thursday, 2 days later! Ken called to ask if he could fit the spikes, which he did the same day and at the quoted price. I consider that exemplary service from yet another fine Which Trusted Trader.

Unprofessional.

Would avoid. Unprofessional. Paid £80 to kill a wasp nest. Didn’t work. Came back while I was away. Subsequently demanded another £170 without consultation or discussion. Spent 15 mins each time. I feel ripped off because he changed the terms of the contract without agreement.

A Which? Trusted Traders staff member replied on behalf of the trader (on 01/08/2022)
TOTAL Lack of Understanding By Customer and Not True: I had successfuly treated the particular wasp nest but unfortunately for the client a second nest in the same vicinity became "active" a couple of days later (not uncommon). I was called to come back and treat this second nest, whilst treating this new nest I saw that there was wasp activity on another slope of the roof. I asked his son to ring his dad (the client) to see if he wanted me to deal with these other possible nests. The only way I could get to the nests was by climbing on to a neighbours roof to carry out treatment accordingly. There was actually a further 2 nests which I treated in good faith. The price I wished to invoice (not demand!) was a fair price considering the efforts and risks I went to; I offered to reduce the price (I admit I should have discussed the price before commencing the treatments) reducing it to £120 for all 3 nests. My only fault was trying to be too helpful in the client's abscence. I am a Which endorsed Trusted Trader and my reviews show my integrity and fair reasonable pricing. Just read my previous recommendations. Would also appreciate if any of my previous clients would support my reply.

Ken helped remove an ant infestation in our home. He picked up the phone before 8am and came over to put down poison by 11am. Cost: £60. He was professional and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend.

Ken responded very quickly and sorted the problem very efficiently. As he dealt with pest infestation he also discovered a badly unblocked drain which he dealt with on the spot. He did a great job and is very knowledgable. I highly recommend him.

I warmly recommend Abacus to anyone confronted by bed bugs. Ken dealt with the situation promptly and professionally, patiently explaining what I needed to do, how the treatment would work, and coming as promised next day to fumigate: all for a very reasonable fee.

Ken was very efficient with dealing with a mice infestation. As well as baiting the affected areas, he carried out a survey of the property to establish possible points of entry and blocked any areas found. Recommmended.

Dealt with wasps in the roof of our single story extension. Courteous and efficient. Reasonable price considering it was a Sunday and at short notice.
