-
Rodents
We most frequently deal with rodent-related pest problems. Especially common during the winter, rodents can cause problems all year round, whether it’s damaging your property or spreading disease. Dealing with rodent infestations of all sizes, your pest technician will provide professional advice on solutions ranging from rodenticide to humane trapping. Problematic rodents include:
Rats | Mice | Squirrels | Glis Glis
-
Wasps
Individual wasps can be a nuisance, but a swarm or nest can be formidable pests. Furthermore, some people are allergic to wasp stings, which poses a serious health and safety risk. Wasps are usually active between June and October and a single treatment outside of your property is usually enough to deal with an infestation. Please consult your pest technician for further details.
-
Birds
Our team are experienced in handling bird problems for domestic and commercial clients. Often, these problems are related to pigeons, whose guano and droppings are not only unsightly but also often carry disease, especially when dried out and turned to dust.
Furthermore, we deal with birds that have become trapped inside your property and cause problems such as setting off alarms and spoiling products in commercial properties. Even after birds’ nests have been vacated, they may also contain other pests, which is why you need to consult our team and arrange a professional survey.
-
Fleas
There are many types of fleas, but the most common are cat fleas. These pests can be brought into your home after contact with another infested animal or property. Fleas are particularly difficult to eradicate, which is why our pet technician may need to visit more than once to provide a complete solution.
-
Bedbugs
Particularly common in residences with multiple occupancies, this extremely irritating pest can easily be transferred to clothing and bedsheets, which is what makes them notoriously difficult to treat once they are established. It’s important to consult a professional pest technician in case of a bedbug infestation, as these insects are immune to most over-the-counter products.
-
Woodworm
Usually found in old, untreated furniture, woodworms are known for weakening the structure of wood as they infest it, which is particularly worrying if they spread to the structural beams in your property. Our experienced pest technicians will provide a spray treatment of all infected wood and any other wood in the surrounding areas.
-
Moles
More common in rural areas, moles excavate extensive tunnel systems that make the ground above unstable. While this usually just causes unsightly mounds of earth, it can also prove dangerous if an animal or human puts their weight on unstable ground and causes the tunnel to collapse. To help you avoid injury, we provide humane trapping services for moles.
-
Rabbits
As per the Pest Act of 1954, you are responsible for controlling rabbit populations on your property. If “your” rabbits damage a neighbour’s trees and plants by undermining the ground, you may be held liable. Providing professional advice and services, our pest technicians offer a range of legal treatments including trapping and shooting.
-
Moths
There are several pest species of moth. They are most destructive in their larval stage of growth when they feed on textiles such as carpets, rugs, and clothes. A single treatment with a residual insecticide will usually solve this problem, but please get in touch with our pest technicians with any further enquiries.
-
Beetles
It is important to identify which type of pest beetle you have so that we can administer the specific treatment required. Our pest technicians will identify the offending type with our initial survey and recommend one of our various treatments, whether it’s a targeted insecticide spray or broad-spectrum fogging.
-
Silverfish
These small wingless insects usually indicate the presence of damp in your property. Getting their name from their appearance and the way they move, silverfish tend to shy away from light and feed mainly off starch base material, including cardboard. Our pest technicians use spray or fogging treatments to address silverfish infestations.
-
Flies and Maggots
There are many types of pest flies, ranging from disease carriers to general nuisances. Furthermore, maggots may cause a more persistent problem by turning into flies, laying eggs, and establishing a cycle. When you have a fly or maggot infestation, our pest technicians are on hand to provide professional advice and a speedy resolution.
-
Cockroaches
Capable of hiding almost anywhere, cockroach infestations are extremely difficult to eradicate. All three species of cockroach in the UK have a reputation for spreading disease, which is why it’s important to have our professional pest technicians get rid of them for you. There are a variety of suitable programmed treatments to suit your property and requirements, ranging from traps to insecticides. We will also make recommendations on improving hygiene practices to prevent infestations.
-
Ants
With so many known varieties of ants, the difficulty of eradicating infestations may vary. For instance, pharaoh ants are especially difficult to get rid of, but ant infestations can require many treatments either way, especially in blocks of flats and other multiple-occupancy properties. Call on an experienced pest technician to discuss your next steps.
