The Team Behind Apex Pest Control
Tony Johnson — Founder and Senior Pest Technician
“I started working in pest control, forestry, and wildlife management over 40 years ago — across South Yorkshire’s farms, woodlands, and residential areas. In 2016 I used that experience to set up Apex PestControl because I saw how many people were being let down by unreliable services, hidden charges, and technicians who didn’t understand local pest problems.
Today our team of three qualified technicians has helped over 1,000 customers and manages 320 commercial contracts across Yorkshire. When you call Apex, you speak to me or one of our team directly not a call centre. I’ll give you honest information and a fixed-price quote before any work begins.”

Tom Johnson — Pest Technician
RSPH Level 2 qualified with Lantra-accredited advanced rodent control and CRRU-compliant Safe Use of Rodenticides training. Tom covers Leeds, Barnsley, and the wider Yorkshire region, leading on commercial pest management contracts bringing modern pest management techniques and technical expertise to every job.
Nathan Marshall — Pest Technician (Leeds)

Nathan is our dedicated Leeds pest technician, providing the same fixed-price, no call-out-fee service that Apex is known for across the Leeds postcodes and surrounding areas.

All contracts include full environmental health documentation for inspections, priority emergency call-outs, and a named technician responsible for your site from start to finish.

Customer Reviews
Tony came out to inspect my rat problem straight away, found the cause, explained the best treatment for the rat infestation and proofed my home against any return. Highly recommend Apex for 5-star customer service.
Contacted the Barnsley branch with a wasp nest problem. Tom arrived on time and sorted it within twenty minutes. Absolutely fantastic customer service and top drawer resolving the wasp issue.
Sheffield branch — ant infestation. Seriously friendly, effective and quick. Exactly what you need when black ants take over your home. Thanks indeed.
