Pest control in Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire 2011

January 25th, 2012

Pest and vermin control in the North West has seen a brisk in 2010 which is somewhat surprising given the somewhat cold winter of 2009/10.

Pest and Vermin controllers were kept occupied with the usual city centre rodent calls throughout the winter of course, but the relatively cold early spring has already seen some ant problems reported.

The damp summers of 2008 and 2009 were not to the taste of the hymenoptera (bees, ants, sawflies and wasps) but 2010 looks like it will be a hectic year for ant problems.

Often ants build nests under the floors of buildings and inside cavity walls causing a large number of foraging ants to visit kitchens and food cupboards.

However it is at the mating time when they can be most troublesome as they release winged males and winged queens which then mate on the wing.

The release of thousands of these winged ants inside your home can be horrible indeed.

A fairly new pest was especially numerous in the Manchester, Cheshire and Lancashire area last year, the Varied Carpet Beetle (Anthrenus verbasci).

It was not common for pest controllers in Lancashire, Manchester and Cheshire to meet these pests until recent times but they seemed to appear from nowhere in 2008 and already this year has seen reports of these insects in unprecedented numbers.

These insects have a similar life cycle to moths their larvae, known as woolly bears eat natural fibres and can do great damage to carpets and some fabrics. They are a difficult and persistent pest to get rid of.

Bed Bugs are carrying on their return in the Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire area, frequently arriving as unwanted guests in the suitcases of returning travellers.

Often the first reaction of those unlucky ones who realise that they are infested with these horrific,blood-sucking pests is to get rid of the old beds and get.

This is an expensive mistake as despite their name bed bugs don’t just stay in beds and in an infested bedroom will be found anywhere within about five metres of the bed, in cupboards, drawers etc, even in electrical and telephone sockets and the new beds are quickly re-infested.

Most people mix up bed bugs with dust mites which are not visible to the naked eye.

They dine solely on blood which they drink from their sleeping victims. People often associate bed bugs with unhygienic conditions but nothing could be less accurate, they do not need squalor, their food is you!
