Cost questions
How much does a moth exterminator cost in the UK?
Outside London, a spray course usually costs £120 to £240 for one wardrobe or room, £200 to £300 for two or more rooms and £280 to £450 for a whole home. London and the South East run roughly 20 to 30% higher. Council services, where they exist, can be cheaper, from £76 in Leeds.
How much does carpet moth treatment cost?
The same as other moth treatment: priced by how many rooms are affected. One room of carpet is typically £120 to £240 outside London; a whole house with heavy damage £280 to £450 or more. Rug cleaning or repair is extra.
How much does moth heat treatment cost?
The only published domestic prices we found are one London firm's starting prices, with a spray included: £534 for a studio or one-bed flat, £834 for two bedrooms and £1,134 for three. Larger homes, and homes outside London, are priced after a survey.
How much does moth fumigation cost?
Most firms that say fumigation mean a fog or mist of insecticide, which is priced as part of a spray course. No UK price guide lists gas fumigation of a home; where it is used at all, it is priced after a survey.
Does the price include follow-up visits?
A course price should include them, often two to four visits. Check how many, and what an extra visit costs if moths are still seen: £60 to £130 is typical.
Does the price include VAT?
Fantastic Services states that its guide prices include VAT; several council lists say the same. Others do not say, and smaller firms may not be VAT registered. Ask each firm to confirm.
