Mice removal cost at the council

Councils that still treat mice publish lower charges: Pembrokeshire £88.23 + VAT for rats or mice, Stafford £93, Stockport £102 for rats and mice including two revisits, Lewisham £150 for up to three visits (£75 on concessions) and Plymouth £197 (council pest control charges). Many councils have stopped treating mice altogether; see does the council do pest control.

Why mice need more than one visit

  1. Visit one: survey and baiting. Droppings, gnawing and entry points tell the technician where the mice run; bait stations or traps go along those runs.
  2. Visit two: bait take is checked and topped up. Mice feed in many small places, so stations are often moved.
  3. Visit three: activity confirmed gone, stations made safe, and the gaps they used pointed out. A mouse fits through a gap the width of a pencil, so proofing is what stops the next ones.

Commercial mouse control cost

Business premises are priced separately. Control Pest UK publishes £110 for three visits to commercial premises for rats and mice; kitchens and food businesses usually move to a contract of regular inspections, which firms quote after a survey.

Prices are each firm's own published figure, read in October 2026, and most are a starting price. Get two or three quotes with the visit count in writing via the form.

Questions, answered directly

How much does it cost to get rid of mice?

A mouse treatment course costs £80 to £419 from UK firms that publish a price (read October 2026); most sit between £99 and £178 before VAT. Councils that still treat mice charge £88 to £197.

How much does pest control cost for mice compared with rats?

Usually a little less. Vale Pest Control publishes £99 for two visits for mice against £145 for rats; Integrum £419 for mice against £425 for rats. Rats are on the <a href="/rat-pest-control-cost/">rat pest control cost</a> page.

Is a single visit enough for mice?

Rarely. One visit places bait; the follow-ups confirm it worked and find the way in. That is why the published prices are for two or three visits.
