    Pest control

    Requested Tue 15 May 2018
    Responded  Thu 24 May 2018

    Please would you tell me:

    1. The number of applications to the council for pest control in each postcode area (e.g. L1, M20) that you cover during the calendar years 2016, 2017 and 2018 to date (May 14 or whichever is closest).

    Please break this down by postcode area and type(s) of pest.


    Response

    Please see below the number of specific treatments.

    Rats = 1798

    Fleas = 204

    Mice = 34 

    Wasps = 106

    Cockroaches = 9

    Bedbugs = 28

    Bed bug assessments = 119

    NOTICE OF REFUSAL

    The information you have requested relating to a breakdown into the individual postcode areas would require us to manually check 4000 cases and would exceed the time limit set out by the Information Commissioner therefore under S12 of the Freedom of information Act 2000 provides an exemption from the obligation to comply with a request for information if the estimated costs of complying with that request would exceed the prescribed appropriate limit.

    We estimate that the costs of complying with your request would exceed the appropriate limit by a significant amount.

    For this reason we feel unable to comply with this request.
