Pest Control for Hostels

Effective, discreet pest control for hostels, keeping shared spaces safe, clean, and pest-free.

Protecting Residents, Reputations & Regulatory Compliance

Hostels and shared accommodation facilities face unique challenges when it comes to pest control. High occupancy turnover, shared sleeping areas, and varying hygiene practices can make these properties especially vulnerable to infestations — particularly from bed bugs, cockroaches, rodents, and other resilient pests.

At ThermoPest, we specialise in delivering fast, discreet, and effective pest control solutions for hostels, night shelters, supported housing, and HMO-style properties across the UK.

Common Pest Risks in Hostels

With high guest turnover, shared sleeping areas, and communal facilities, hostels are particularly vulnerable to pest infestations. We offer discreet, effective treatments for:

Bed Bugs – The most common pest in hostels, spreading rapidly through bunk beds, luggage, and shared bedding
Fleas – Introduced via guests’ clothing, pets, or second-hand furniture
Clothes & Carpet Moths – Damage bedding, curtains, and soft furnishings in dormitories and communal areas
Pigeon Proofing – Prevents nesting on building exteriors, balconies, and roof edges
Gull Proofing – Reduces mess and noise for coastal hostels and outdoor social spaces

We work around check-in/check-out schedules and use unmarked vehicles to maintain guest confidence while delivering fast, reliable results.
