Pest control in The Wirral, Liverpool and Widnes

Pest and vermin control in Liverpool and Wirral has seen a brisk start this year which is unexpected given the very cold (weather of this last winter|winter of 2009/10}.

Pest and vermin operatives were kept working with the usual city centre rodent problems all thoughout the winter of course, but the relatively cold late winter has already seen some ant infestations coming in.

The wet summers of the last few years were not to the liking of the hymenoptera (wasps, bees and ants) but 2010 looks like it will be a hectic year for flying ant problems.

Regularly ants nest under the floors of homes and inside cavity walls causing an army of foraging ants to invade kitchens and food cupboards.

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

The release of several thousands of these flying ants inside your home can be traumatic indeed.

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

It was not common for pest controllers in Cheshire, Lancashire and Manchester to deal with these pests until lately but they seemed to appear from nowhere in 2008 and already this spring has seen reports of these beetles in large numbers.

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

Those involved in pest control note that Bed Bugs are carrying on their renaissance in the Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire area, regularly arriving as hitch-hikers in the suitcases of home-coming holiday makers.

Very often the first reaction of unlucky people who realise that they are infested with these horrific,blood-sucking pests is to get rid of the old beds and buy new.

This is a costly mistake as despite their name bed bugs do not just hide in beds and in an infested bedroom will be found anywhere within up to five yards of the bed, in cupboards, drawers etc, even in electrical wall sockets and the new beds are quickly re-infested.

Many 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 exclusively on blood which they take from their sleeping hosts. People regularly associate bed bugs with insanitary conditions but nothing could be less accurate, they do not require grime, they eat you!
