Pest Control Review in Rochdale, Oldham, Middleton and Bury Spring & Summer 2010

July 24th, 2010

Pest Control in Manchester, Cheshire and Lancashire has seen a relatively early start this year which is somewhat surprising given the very colder (weather of this last winter|winter of 2009/10}.

Pest controllers were kept working with the usual city centre rats and mice problems during the winter of course, but the relatively cold early spring has already seen ant calls reported.

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

Usually ants make nests under the floors of homes and inside cavity walls causing a lot of foraging ants to visit kitchens and food cupboards.

However it is at their mating time when they are at their most troublesome as they produce winged males and queens which then mate on the wing.

The emergence of thousands of these flying ants inside homes can be horrific indeed.

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

It was not common for pest controllers in the North West to encounter these pests until recently but they seemed to arrive from nowhere in recent years and already this season has seen reports of varied carpet beetle in large quantities.

They have a similar life cycle to moths their larvae, known as woolly bears can eat natural fibres and can do great damage to carpets and any fabrics. They can be a difficult and tricky pest to remove.

Those who work in in pest control note that Bed Bugs are carrying on their return in the Lancashire, Manchester and Cheshire area, frequently arriving as stowaways in the suitcases of home-coming travellers.

Often the first reaction of unlucky people who realise that they have been infested with these horrific,blood-sucking insects is to burn the old beds and buy new.

This is a costly mistake as despite their name bed bugs don’t just live in beds and in an infested room will be found anywhere within about five metres of the bed, in cupboards, drawers etc, even in electrical sockets and the new beds will be rapidly re-infested.

Many people mistake bed bugs with dust mites which cannot be seen by the naked eye. They both require a different form of pest control.

They dine exclusively on blood which they take from their sleeping hosts. People regularly associate bed bugs with dirty living conditions but nothing could be less true, they do not need squalor, they dine on you!

Until the end of April 2010 Stockport & Manchester Pest Control are offering a twenty-five percent discount on their three year guaranteed ant prevention treatment.
