Terms and Conditions

1.       Availability and price

1.1   In the exceptional case where a product is out of stock, we will notify you by email and will indicate when this product will be available again. You will have the option to cancel this part of the order if you wish.

1.2   If the item you ordered is out of stock, but we have a comparable product available, we reserve the right to replace one item with another. This will only be done if the replacement product is of an exact or better standard. For example, if a brand of purchased insecticide has an active ingredient of 1%, it will only be replaced by another brand of insecticide of at least this concentration.

1.3   We constantly monitor our competitors to ensure we offer you the best possible prices. If you see an identical product available at a lower price elsewhere, we guarantee to match the price. This policy does not apply to liquidation sales, auction sites, price errors, bulk discount prices or prices offered on unavailable stocks.
 
2.       Delivery
 
2.1   We will ship your order on the day of receipt, provided your order is placed before 4pm. If your order is placed after this deadline or is received on weekends or on a holiday, it will be shipped the next business day. In times of excessive demand or other exceptional circumstances, these delays may increase. In exceptional circumstances where we are unable to ship your order on the same day, Pest Expert Ltd and its associated companies reserve the right to ship the goods the next day. In this case, the shipping costs paid by the customer will either be refunded, or the order will be cancelled and refunded in full. 

2.2   Delivery is normally made by DPD, although lighter items may be sent with Royal Mail on a preferred recorded delivery service and bulk quantity / high value orders will be sent by way of pallet. Packages are always delivered within 1-2 working days. International delivery times depend on the destination, with delivery to continental Europe taking usually 3-5 working days. Although we offer a delivery service within 2-3 business days, we cannot guarantee or accept responsibility in the exceptional case where the goods do not reach you within 2-3 business days.

2.3   In the unlikely event that you have not received your goods within 3 business days of the order, please contact us and we will provide you with the necessary information to track your progress with DPD or the Royal Mail.

NB DPD can deliver you at any time during normal business hours (8 am to 6 pm).

2.6   If the carrier did not deliver to you either because you were not available at the address indicated when the carrier attempted to deliver your order, or because you did not collect the order timely, or because the address you provided is incorrect or does not exist and your order is returned to us, we will charge a fee of £ 9.95 to cover the costs we incur by sending your order and paying for its return with either DPD or Royal Mail. 
Where goods are shipped by way of pallet and delivery is not possible, the return costs increase to the cost price we incur for both outbound and return shipping, As these costs are variable, no cost be stated herewith, but proof of costs will be supplied, with the total amount we incur being deducted from the order value paid before refund is issued. 
Upon receipt of the returned goods, and upon request, we will reimburse you the amount remaining after the deduction of the aforementioned fees.

We regret that we cannot be held responsible if the carrier did not inform you of his attempt to deliver to the address indicated on your order. Please contact the carrier directly

Therefore an animal in such a trap is classed as protected, and if unnecessary suffering is caused, as a result of poor practice while using such a trap, through failure to release, or kill the animal in an appropriate manner, then it may be considered that an offence of causing unnecessary suffering under section 4 of this Act has been committed.
