Below is a list of the most common pests we treat.
If you have any questions or concerns, please call today as the quicker you react, the quicker the pest problem can be treated and usually it’s less expensive than leaving the problem to become a full infestation.
Ants
There are no ants that bite and sting here in the UK but ants parading across worktops and floors can be a nuisance. In sufficient numbers and if allowed to continue, they can contaminate food stuffs. A pest problem easily remedied when you know how.
Bed Bugs
A fast-growing nuisance and one that is not welcomed in any home. Breaking the lifecycle of the bedbug is the only way to get rid of them and that means focusing attention the eggs. Hard to spot and difficult to get rid of, seek professional pest control advice.
Fleas
Not just a problem associated with homes with pets! Fleas can hitch a ride on clothing, bags and so on and enjoying the warmth and humidity of your carpets, sofa, cushions, bedding and so on. A nuisance that you want rid of – and quickly.
Cockroaches
Feared by many – and with good reason. The cockroach doesn’t travel alone meaning there could be hundreds, if not thousands spreading salmonella and other nasty bacteria across your home. This is an infestation that does NOT go away on its own – act NOW and call us!
Wasps
A nasty sting in their tail that can be unpleasant, but for some people, cause anaphylaxis shock which can be fatal. Aggressive in late summer, but with the potential to turn nasty at any time of the year, the ONLY safe course of action is to call a professional pest controller.
Bees
Many pest controllers will try to re-locate the honeybee but again, the bee has a nasty sting. Unlike its wasp cousin, it can sting more than once. The only safe means of dealing with a bee’s nest is to leave it well alone – and get the professionals to deal with it.
Woodworm
Not a worm but a beetle, the woodworm can lay hidden for years – by which time, the damage is done! Enjoying humid wood, the wood-boring larvae will eat through wooden furniture and wooden structures in a building too.
Beetles
Carpet beetles leave tell-tale signs of perfectly round holes in carpets and so on. They can be confused with moths, two insects that require very different treatment. Not sure if its beetles or moths causing the damage? Call us for help and advice.
Flies
An unpleasant nuisance but they can spread disease too. Flies consume food as a liquid so they salivate on it then regurgitate it, then suck it up as a liquid. They will do this on dog faeces then fly into your home, land on the worktop, your food, you… deal with flies as soon as possible by identifying the source and getting rid of it.
Moths
Moths lay eggs on materials that contain natural fibres and it is the emerging larvae that causes the damage. For infestations, chemical treatment may be needed alongside deep cleaning. But, moths can be confused with other insects so before you treat, get it checked out by a pest controller.
Spiders
There are thousands of spider species across the world and although some spiders in the UK will bite, the good news is they are neither poisonous nor venomous. However, this doesn’t make you any less uncomfortable so if you are feeling under siege from spiders, call us.
Insects
Insects are a class of invertebrate that has a three-part body, three pairs of jointed legs, compound eyes and a pair on antennae. Insects and bugs are the biggest class of species with thousands of different insects found across the UK. Some are dangerous, some sting, some bite but the vast majority present no issues to humans. But that doesn’t mean you want to share your home or business with them…
Bugs
From ladybirds to bedbugs, our world is full of all kinds of weird and wonderful bugs. When various factors are in their favour, their population can explode leaving us feeling under siege by bugs. Most are harmless but some can bite, sting or spread disease so get the bug problem dealt with – and quickly.
