Setting the Standard for Safe, Legal, and Ethical Pest Control in Lancashire
Discovering a pest infestation in your home or commercial premises is understandably stressful. Beyond the immediate urgency of removing the pest, property owners and business managers must be certain that the treatments used are safe for children, pets, staff, and the wider environment.
At Pest Medic, we provide complete peace of mind through clinical precision, comprehensive insurance, and certified industry authority. Operating from our base in Ramsgreave, Blackburn, our technician team brings together over 155 years of combined field experience.
We do not believe in indiscriminate chemical spraying. Instead, we utilise Integrated Pest Management (IPM) to identify and resolve the root cause of your pest issue—ensuring we get it right the first time while strictly adhering to all UK health, safety, and wildlife regulations.

How Our Compliant Pest Management Process Works
Every call-out follows a rigorous, auditable protocol designed to protect human health, safeguard non-target wildlife, and eliminate pests permanently.
Site Survey & Risk Assessment
Before any treatment begins, our technicians conduct a thorough site survey, environmental risk assessment, and COSHH evaluation to identify hazards, vulnerable individuals, and non-target species.
Root Cause & IPM Strategy
Following Integrated Pest Management (IPM) principles, we prioritise physical exclusion—such as CCTV drain inspections and rodent proofing—over chemical reliance.
Eco-Friendly Eradication
Where treatments are required, we use targeted, professional-grade biocides with few to no harmful chemicals. All baits are secured in tamper-resistant stations safe for families, pets, and food areas.
Certification & Aftercare
Upon completion, we provide full treatment reports, safety data sheets, and proofing recommendations. Commercial clients receive complete documentation for Environmental Health and FSA inspections.
Our Core Regulatory & Safety Commitments
Pest control is a highly regulated industry in the UK. Using an unaccredited amateur can result in illegal wildlife harm, chemical contamination, or failed commercial health inspections. Here is how Pest Medic protects you.
CPCA Accreditation & 155+ Years Experience
Pest Medic is proud to be CPCA Accredited. This certification demonstrates that our technicians are vetted, continuously trained to the highest industry standards, and audited for technical competence.
Combined with over 155 years of operational field experience across our team, we possess an encyclopaedic knowledge of pest biology, structural vulnerabilities in traditional Lancashire stone properties, and modern eradication techniques. We hold comprehensive public liability insurance for all residential, commercial, and high-level roofline works.
Strict COSHH Adherence & Pesticide Safety
Under the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations, every substance we carry is strictly controlled, assessed, and documented. We champion an eco-friendly pest control ethos across Blackburn and Lancashire.
By utilising non-toxic monitoring, humane trapping, heat treatments, and targeted residual insecticides only when strictly necessary, we ensure your home, nursery, school, or workplace remains completely safe. We also follow strict rodenticide stewardship guidelines to prevent secondary poisoning of local birds of prey and pets.
Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 Compliance
Dealing with avian pests and certain mammals requires strict adherence to UK wildlife law. Under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, all wild birds, their active nests, and their eggs are protected by law.
When conducting pigeon control, seagull control, or solar panel bird proofing, we prioritise humane exclusion using heavy-duty galvanised mesh, bird spikes, and optical gels. Where trapping or nest removal is required, it is strictly carried out where legally permitted under General Licences and outside of protected nesting seasons. Similarly, our grey squirrel control adheres strictly to the Invasive Alien Species Order and humane dispatch laws.
FSA & Environmental Health Commercial Compliance
For restaurants, pubs, food manufacturers, hotels, and schools, a pest issue threatens your legal right to trade. Our commercial pest control and industrial pest management contracts are engineered around Food Standards Agency (FSA) and HACCP requirements.
We help Lancashire businesses maintain their 5-star Food Hygiene Ratings and pass Environmental Health Officer (EHO) inspections with ease. We provide comprehensive site folders containing bait point maps, COSHH data sheets, technician visit logs, and proactive proofing reports, alongside specialist biohazard decontamination to neutralise pathogens.

Frequently Asked Questions About Safety & Compliance
Clear answers regarding our qualifications, safe chemical usage, and UK wildlife laws.
Are your pest control treatments safe for my children and pets?
Yes, absolutely. Safety is our highest priority. We use an environmentally-conscious approach that relies on physical proofing, trapping, and non-toxic monitoring first. When professional biocides or rodenticides are required under COSHH regulations, they are applied in targeted areas or locked inside heavy-duty, tamper-resistant stations that children and pets cannot access.
Can you legally remove pigeons or gulls nesting on my roof or solar panels?
All wild birds, their eggs, and active nests are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. We never break the law. We can carry out humane trapping or nest removal only where legally permitted under specific General Licences to preserve public health and safety, or outside of nesting seasons. Once clear, we install permanent solar panel bird proofing and mesh to prevent their return.
Do you provide documentation for Environmental Health and FSA audits?
Yes. For our commercial clients across Blackburn, Preston, and Burnley—including restaurants, food processors, schools, and landlords—we supply full compliance documentation. This includes detailed treatment reports, COSHH safety data sheets, bait station site plans, and proofing recommendations to satisfy Food Standards Agency (FSA) and Environmental Health officers.
