How anti-pest experts in Harborough are helping to combat Covid-19 and get the town back on its feet

Market Harborough anti-pest experts are battling flat out to combat the Covid-19 pandemic.

As well as tackling vermin, Clearway Pest Control Services has stepped up to play a decisive role in wiping out the coronavirus here.

The highly-specialist firm is de-contaminating and disinfecting local care homes, schools, offices and people’s homes as it stamps out the virulent virus.

Stephen Morse, 55, who runs the high-tech operation, said: “We are doing our bit to help the economy across Harborough get back to work – and get society back to normal.

“We have never been so busy – we’re rushed off our feet.

“But we are just so pleased that we can help to beat this devastating pandemic and get businesses up and working again.”

The ex-RAF engineer said they are using anti-virus ‘Cold Fogging Treatments’ to deep clean offices and buildings.

Wearing special protective suits, operatives fire a fine chemical mist all over targeted areas.

“We can spray the chemical, which isn’t dangerous, into every nook and cranny.

“So we disinfect and de-contaminate the entire care home, school, office, business, house or what ever,” said Stephen, of Gardiner Street, Market Harborough.

“People can move back in to spaces we have cleaned very quickly, making it even more convenient.

“They have the confidence and reassurance of knowing that it’s safe to go back in to their industrial kitchen, office or where ever they are.”

The enthusiastic dad-of-two said demand has rocketed through the roof as employers throughout Harborough move towards returning to work.

“We normally have four workers and have already had to take on another two – and we might yet have to recruit another person,” said Stephen, who worked in Lima, Peru, for 12 years.

“We are working six days a week and could easily be hard at it for all seven.

“The chemical we use punches the membrane of the virus and destroys it from the inside.

“We charge about £100 to treat the typical office, business or house.

“It’s very important that we support our local economy here and help people get back to work.

“It’s also very fulfilling and satisfying to know that as we flourish ourselves we are also boosting so many workers and employers by providing this vital service.”
