Tommy Saxondale an ex-roadie who runs a pest control business, is having his patience sorely tested. His business is threatened by staffing problems, animal rights protesters objecting to his latest assignment - a pigeon-cull using his pellet gun; and his own anger management issues.

Tommy fights for the right to uphold civil liberties, when Magz's shop is accused of selling obscene material. Tommy and Raymond are called to get rid of mice in the home of celebrity motoring journalist, where he gives advice to Raymond about dealing with famous clients.

An old roadie mate, Deggsy, comes to stay but while Tommy has embraced the calm suburban life, Deggsy has still got a taste for whisky and an eye for the ladies. Tommy reluctantly heads out to their old haunts; where Deggsy's plan involves two prostitutes and a bottle of economy vodka.

Despite anger-management classes, Tommy finds that his daughter's new boyfriend raises his volatile mood to yellow alert. At work, Tommy and Raymond head for a rough neighbourhood on a big cockroach job; where they meet a very weird, yet strangely familiar, character.

Tommy and Raymond attempt the humane removal of a squirrel from a woman's loft. Tommy's physical ineptitude on the job concerns him, so he goes to the local gym. Meanwhile Raymond's romantic life takes a turn for the better when he meets the newly divorced Tina.

In an escalating series of events, Tommy is convinced he has uncovered a flea-related scam, and takes on the mighty forces of corporate greed, armed only with his integrity and knowledge of old Rush lyrics. Meanwhile Raymond unwittingly stumbles on the secret of nylon tights.
