Client Testimonials
Hear from our satisfied clients across Preston and Lancashire who have experienced our professional pest control services.
"I cannot recommend the guys from VRC Vermin Control highly enough. We had been SERIOUSLY inundated with brown rats since February 2025. It got so bad that they were actually gnawing through the wall into our outhouse. Paul and the guys came and started pop the rats off that night. After just four nights they were no more. Thanks Paul, Tim and Ray for a great job well done."
"VRC came to our chicken farm smallholding after we contacted them regarding a growing infestation of brown rats which were not only causing damage to our property, but were also taking our new born chicks as well as eating the feed. VRC came and inspected the situation and then started, the very same night, in their efforts to control and eradicate the rats. After 7 days and nights the number of rats has dropped by at least 90% with Paul coming back once a week to keep control. All of the service VRC provided to us were completely free, and we are so delighted with the outcome. Thank you VRC."
