Pest control in Trafford, Manchester and Cheshire 2011

Pest and vermin control in Manchester, Cheshire and Lancashire has seen a relatively early this year which is unexpected given the relatively cold winter of 2009/10.

Pest and vermin operatives were kept busy with the usual city centre rodent calls throughout the winter of course, but the relatively cold early spring has already brought some ant infestations reported.

The wet summers of 2008 and 2009 were not to the taste of the hymenoptera (bees, ants, sawflies and wasps) but 2010 looks like being a active year for flying ant problems.

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

However it is at mating time when they can be most troublesome as they produce winged males and winged queens which then mate in flight.

The release of many thousands of these winged ants inside houses can be traumatic indeed.

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

It was unusual for pest controllers in Cheshire, Lancashire and Manchester to come across these pests until lately but they seemed to appear from nowhere in 2008 and already this year has seen reports of varied carpet beetle in unprecedented numbers.

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

Bed Bugs are carrying on their renaissance in the Lancashire, Manchester and Cheshire area, often arriving as stowaways in the suitcases of returning holiday makers.

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

This is an unneccesary mistake as despite their name bed bugs don’t just hide in beds and in an infested bedroom will be found anywhere within up to five metres of the bed, in cupboards, drawers etc, even in electrical wall sockets and the new beds become quickly re-infested.

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

They dine only on blood which they syphon from their sleeping hosts. People often associate bed bugs with unhygienic conditions but nothing could be less true, they do not need grime, they dine on you!

Until the end of April 2010 Harrier & Manchester Pest Control are offering a 25% reduction on their guaranteed ant treatment.
