Pest control in Sale, Timperley and Altrincham 2010
Pest and vermin control in Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire has seen a relatively early (2010) which is somewhat surprising given the somewhat cold winter of 2009/10.
Pest operatives were kept working with the usual town centre rodent infestations during the winter of 2009/10, but the relatively cold early part of the year has already brought some ant calls reported.
The damp summers of 2008 and 2009 were not to the benefit of the hymenoptera (sawflies, wasps, ants & bees) but 2010 looks like it will be a hectic 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 infest kitchens and food cupboards.
However it is at their mating time when they can be most troublesome as they create winged queens and males which then mate in flight.
The emergence of thousands of these winged ants inside your home can be horrible indeed.
A relatively new pest was quite numerous in the Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire area last season, the Varied Carpet Beetle (Anthrenus verbasci).
It was not common for pest controllers in Manchester, Cheshire and Lancashire to meet these pests until recently but they seemed to arrive from nowhere in 2008 and already this spring has seen reports of these beetles in unprecedented numbers.
These beetles 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 natural fabrics. They are a difficult and persistent pest to remove.
Bed Bugs are carrying on their return in the Cheshire, Lancashire and Manchester area, frequently arriving as stowaways in the suitcases of returning travellers.
Often the first reaction of those unfortunates who realise that they have been infested with these hideous,blood-sucking insects is to get rid of the old beds and get.
This is an unneccesary error as despite their name bed bugs do not just hide in beds and in an infested bedroom will be found anywhere within about five yards of the bed, in cupboards, drawers etc, even in electrical wall sockets and the new beds become rapidly re-infested.
A lot of people mistake bed bugs with dust mites which are not visible to the naked eye.
They dine only on blood which they drink from their sleeping hosts. People often associate bed bugs with dirty conditions but nothing could be further from the truth, they do not require grime, their food is you!
