Liverpool Pest Control
Pest and vermin control in The Merseyside Area has seen a lively and brisk start in 2010 which is somewhat surprising given the very colder (weather of this last winter|winter of 2009/10}.
Liverpool and Merseyside Pest and Vermin controllers were kept occupied with the standard city centre rodent calls all thoughout the winter of 2009/10, but the quite cold early spring has already provided some ant problems coming in.
The wet summers of the last few years were not to the benefit of the hymenoptera (bees, ants, sawflies and wasps) but this year looks like it will be a active year for ant problems.
Frequently ants nest under the floors of houses and inside cavity walls causing a lot of foraging ants to invade kitchens and food cupboards.
However it is at their mating time when they can be most troublesome as they produce winged queens and males which then mate on the wing.
The appearance of many thousands of these winged ants inside your house can be traumatic in the extreme.
A fairly new pest was quite numerous in the Merseyside area last year, the Varied Carpet Beetle (Anthrenus verbasci).
It was unusual for pest controllers in Liverpool and Merseyside to encounter these pests until recently but they seemed to appear from nowhere in 2008 and already this year has seen sightings of these insects in large numbers.
These beetles have a similar life cycle to moths their larvae, known as woolly bears eat natural fibres and can do substantial damage to carpets and natural fabrics. They are a difficult and persistent pest to get rid of.
We who work in in pest control Liverpool note that Bed Bugs are continuing their resurgence in the Cheshire, Lancashire and Manchester area, frequently arriving as unwanted guests in the suitcases of home-coming travellers.
Regularly the first reaction of unlucky people who realise that they have been infested with these horrific,blood-sucking pests is to burn the old beds and buy new.
This is a costly error as despite their name bed bugs don’t just live in beds and in an infested room will be found everywhere within about fifteen feet of the bed, in cupboards, drawers etc, even in electrical wall sockets and the new beds become rapidly re-infested.
Most people mistake bed bugs with dust mites which are not visible to the naked eye.They both a different form of pest control
They dine solely on blood which they syphon from their sleeping hosts. People regularly associate bed bugs with insanitary conditions but nothing could be less true, they do not require grime, they dine on you!
