Prokill steps in after East Herts council axes pest control service

Despite concerns about the impact it could have on public health, last year East Herts District Council (EHDC) announced that they would be axing its pest control unit. 

The decision was made after the council suffered losses and was then dealt a further blow after government funding was cut. Speaking about the decision, a Hertfordshire Unison spokesperson commented:

“We’re concerned that the public will potentially be put at risk through what we and our advisors have identified as a short-sighted attempt to save money that will be likely to cost more as diseases spread by pests increase and health deteriorates.”

As Unison warns that there could be an increase in rats, bedbugs and cockroaches, Prokill has stepped in to provide pest control services in Bishops Stortford.
