From coaching national and international rugby teams to protecting properties from infestations of rodents, Elite Pest Control’s Gary Wilkinson has had a varied career and, with 32 years of experience in the industry, is sure to be able to humanely pest proof any business premises or private property.

After a fruitful career in rugby, which saw him coach teams such as the first team at Hull Kingston Rovers, Hull FC’s under 23 squad, Ideal ABI, the Great Britain students team and the Sheffield Eagles, Gary is turning his full attention to his business, Elite Pest Control.

Established in 1996 alongside his coaching, he set up his business as a result of the experience he gained working for the Hull City Council and has since gone on to earn his RSPH Level 2 certificate in pest management, a qualification that attests to his expertise as a pest control technician.

Elite Pest Control offers a wide range of services including: proofing against possible infestations of pests, the removal and control of pre-existing infestations, the treatment or prevention of wood boring insects and methods of managing unwanted birds. As the summer sun shines, Gary is anticipating a surge in wasp and bee infestations, a pest he can easily deal with humanely and in a manner that fulfils legal requirements thanks to his certified status.

Gary prides himself on his business’ personal and bespoke service. He says:

“My business is different from other pest control companies because I give my clients the kind of one-to-one service that can only be delivered by a small company. I enjoy meeting people in my job and building relationships with all of my customers who, over the years, have become friends.”

“As the saying goes, ‘prevention is better than the cure’ and I want to change the perception of pest control, if you see my van parked outside a local business, you can have peace-of-mind that business is preventing infestations, rather than worrying that they are riddled with pests. Obviously I do deal with issues that arise, but most of my work is stopping pests get in, in the first place.”

Available for commercial contracts and also domestic call outs, Elite Pest Control is geared up ready to tackle any of the seasonal pests that the warmer weather may bring. From wasps to ants, rodents to birds, Gary’s family run business is able to deal with any pest efficiently and effectively.
