Pest control in Liverpool, Wirral and Southport
Pest Control in Cheshire, Lancashire and Manchester has seen a lively and brisk start this year which is very surprising given the relatively cold (weather of this last winter|winter of 2009/10}.
Pest and Vermin controllers were kept working with the usual city centre rodent calls during the winter of course, but the relatively cold early part of the year has already seen ant infestation coming in.
The fairly wet summers of the last few years were not to the benefit of the hymenoptera (sawflies, wasps, ants & bees) but this year looks like it will be a active year for flying ant callouts.
Often ants build nests under the floors of buildings and inside cavity walls causing a lot of foraging ants to infest kitchens and food cupboards.
However it is at the annual mating time when they can be most troublesome as they create winged males and winged queens which then mate in flight.
The emergence of many thousands of these flying ants inside your home can be horrible in the extreme.
A relatively new pest was especially troublesome in the the North West area last year, the Varied Carpet Beetle (Anthrenus verbasci).
It was rare for pest operatives in Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire to encounter these pests until lately but they seemed to arrive from nowhere in 2008 and already this spring has seen reports of varied carpet beetle in unprecedented numbers.
These beetles have a similar life cycle to moths their larvae, called woolly bears eat natural fibres and can do substantial damage to carpets and natural fabrics. They can be a difficult and tricky pest to get rid of.
Those involved in pest control have noted that Bed Bugs are continuing their return in the Manchester, Cheshire and Lancashire area, often arriving as unwanted guests in the suitcases of returning holiday makers.
Very often the first reaction of those unlucky ones who realise that they are infested with these hideous,blood-sucking insects is to get rid of the old beds and buy new.
This is an unneccesary mistake as despite their name bed bugs do not just live in beds and in an infested room will be found everywhere within about five metres of the bed, in cupboards, drawers etc, even in electrical wall sockets and the new beds will be quickly re-infested.
Most people confuse bed bugs with dust mites which are not visible to the naked eye.They both require a different type of pest control
They dine exclusively on blood which they take from their sleeping victims. People often associate bed bugs with unhygienic conditions but nothing could be less accurate, they do not need grime, their food is you!
