On arrival at the premises, we shall determine, at our absolute discretion, whether the premises has been sufficiently prepared in accordance with in paragraph 3 above.

If we determine that it has been well prepared, we shall treat it in accordance with the terms of this agreement.

If we determine that it has been reasonably prepared, we shall treat it but clause 4.3 shall not apply and you will be charged for any additional visits, as the treatment will be compromised. Alternatively, you could choose to re-book the appointment at no extra cost (provided that this is the first time the treatment is re-booked; otherwise we will charge you for the visit).

If we determine that it has not been reasonably prepared, we shall refuse to treat it. In this event, we will offer you the opportunity to book an alternative appointment at no extra cost.

You must advise us on arrival and before any treatment is commenced if there is any reason why the property cannot be sprayed with an approved insecticide.

The insecticide may damage furniture or personal possessions.

LIMITATION OF OUR LIABILITY – PLEASE READ:

By reading these conditions, you acknowledge that, subject to clause 9.4, we do not accept any liability for any loss or damage caused as a result of the use of insecticide.

You must leave the property during treatment and remain outside sprayed areas for at least 6 hours to enable the applied insecticide to dry and to avoid inhalation of any mist. If you re-enter the premises within this time, the treatment will be compromised and we shall be entitled to exclude clause 4.3.

After the treatment has been carried out and the 6 hour period has passed, you must continue to use the treated areas as you did before for at least 14 days afterwards. This is to provide a natural environment for the insects to feed on, and therefore use, the treated area.

You must not vacuum or wash down any non food preparation surfaces for a period to two weeks after the treatment was carried out.

We reserve the right to decline to carry out the treatment if we believe that it may be unsafe to access or treat the area.

No re-call as referred to in clause 4.3 shall be undertaken within the first two weeks after the treatment is carried out.

We shall use reasonable endeavours to eliminate the cockroaches but if this is not achievable with the three pre-paid visits, we shall seek to control them instead. For example, if the core infestation is emanating from another property (including another flat within the same building), we will seek to control the cockroaches as we will be unable to eliminate them.

Schedule 4: Terms Specific to Rodent Treatments

Our Service is to attend your premises, inspect the relevant area and treat the active rodent habitat with the intention of controlling the pest. If it is, in our opinion, appropriate to try to eradicate the pest, we shall do so, but this is often inappropriate and depends on many factors including the location and proximity to other people’s property.

The price of the Service is for treating a single domestic property (including the immediate gardens and grounds) occupied by one family. An additional fee will be charged if the premises is occupied by more than one family, additional treatments are needed or if any treatments are required in outbuildings, stables or land where domestic pets or livestock are present. However in some situations, due to the safety of the livestock, treatments within these additional areas may not be appropriate and we reserve the right to refuse to treat them. If the price has been pre-paid and we refuse to treat the area, or you decide not to make the additional payment, the amount pre-paid shall be returned to you without charge.

The price will depend on which type of pests you wish us to treat. We will only treat squirrels that are inside the premises.

Clause 4.3 shall apply to the extent that we, at our absolute discretion, determine necessary, up to a maximum of three visits. In some situations, a single treatment is sufficient and in other cases two or three are needed.

Before the first visit and until the final visit, you hereby agree:

not to move any poisons or tamper with equipment / bait stations;

not to interfere with our treatment in any way, or try to treat the rodents yourself or allow anyone else to do so;

In the event that you are unable to contact us, you must contact a veterinary practice and arrange for a suitably qualified practitioner to visit the property and kill the rodent to avoid unnecessary suffering.

Where there is evidence of infestations emanating from private or public sewers or from breaches in soil drains we may require you to obtain specialised inspections or works. We cannot inspect or treat utility company sewers.

We will inspect the infected areas and we will treat it if, in our reasonable opinion, it is necessary, practical and safe to do so by installing appropriate traps.

The Service does not include the removal of any dead rodent carcases and we shall not accept any liability for not doing so.

We will not create openings or interfere with the structure of your property when treating it is your responsibility to ensure we have suitable access to areas where treatment is required.

However, this is not included within the price, we shall not be under any obligation to provide such advice and we shall not accept any responsibility for any such advice we give.

We are legally obliged to remove all rodenticides laid at your property when our treatment ends for whatever reason. You shall ensure that we have free access to do this.
