This case study highlights one of the most common pest emergencies we handle in Romford: mice and cockroach infestations. These pests are especially common in family flats and older buildings where warm, sheltered environments and food access allow them to thrive. Once they’re in, they can spread fast — and become a real headache.
This recent review from a Romford customer perfectly sums up how Bugwise steps in to take control.
🔍 The Situation
Jackie H contacted Bugwise Pest Control after discovering both a mouse and cockroach problem in her mum’s Romford flat. As with most pest issues, urgency was key — no one wants pests lingering in their home, especially when it involves rodents and roaches.
“Mo was able to come the next day and treat the flat for me. He was on time and very polite and knowledgeable.” – Jackie H
⚙️ Our Response
We responded within 24 hours, arriving discreetly and professionally. Our team carried out a full pest inspection, identifying signs of mouse activity, cockroach hotspots, and potential entry points. We used a combination of baiting, monitoring, and targeted insecticidal treatment to tackle both problems in one go.
A follow-up visit a week later confirmed that the mice had been completely eradicated. Cockroach activity had also reduced significantly — which is expected, as cockroaches can take a little longer to fully disappear after treatment.
“The mice have been eradicated. I haven’t seen any cockroaches this week, but they can take a bit longer to get rid of, so fingers crossed.”
We always set realistic expectations for cockroach control — especially in communal or older properties where hidden cracks and pipework can extend the timeline. That’s why our services include follow-up support and clear guidance.
💬 What the Customer Said
Here’s the full 5-star review Jackie left on Google:
“I called Bugwise after discovering a mouse and cockroach problem at my Mum’s flat. Mo was able to come the next day and treat the flat for me — he was on time and very polite and knowledgeable. He has returned a week later and the mice have been eradicated. I have not seen any cockroaches this week, but they can take a bit longer to get rid of so fingers crossed. I would highly recommend Bugwise and they also guarantee their work.”
This is exactly the kind of result we aim for: fast response, expert service, and peace of mind.
