Sustainability

We commit to working towards a more sustainable future for generations that proceed us. To this end we are committed to supporting the following Sustainable Development Goals.

We commit to sponsoring a Hero Rat as a tuberculosis detection rat. These amazing rats can search for TB in sputum samples 96 times faster than a lab technician. Read more about Apopo and the great work they do.

We commit to offering pro-bono support to low income families to deal with public health emergencies. Within Cambridge the council commits to free treatment for cockroach, mice and rats. We will commit to responding to flea infestations or wasp nest eradication for low income families on universal credit. Please contact us for free advice and to discuss options.

We are signed up to the “Think Wildlife” Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU) promoting best practice and responsible rodent control, thereby protecting wildlife from rodenticide exposure. We have signed a licence agreement undertaking to abide by the code. We practice integrated pest management and will also recommend low impact strategies first in particular proofing and preventing ingress of rodents or other pests into buildings or gardens.
