Global facilities management firm Servest has acquired Dundee based pest control specialist Pro-Check Environmental Services Northern Limited as it steps into the growing pest control market.

Pro-Check offer pest control, cleaning, hygiene services and environmental solutions, and has been providing specialist services to local businesses and councils since 2000.

Operating mainly throughout Scotland, Pro-Check offer Servest the chance to further grow its geographical coverage. The growing pest control market was also a key value driver for Servest, and marks their third acquisition in four months.

The proximity of the company to Arthur McKay’s head office, who were acquired by Servest in late 2016, provides further opportunities for the division to offer pest control services to its client base.

The Pro-Check Environmental Services Northern team will be joining the Servest family and founder, Jim Devaney, will take on the role of area manager Scotland.

Rob Legge, Servest CEO, added: “We welcome a very professional and experienced Pro-Check team to Servest, which will allow us to offer additional pest services and expertise to clients. The move forms a part of Servest’s growth strategy and will help develop our already successful pest control division. The acquisition marks an exciting start to the year as we continue to grow.”
