Bedbugs
Bed bugs can be brought into your home in travel bags, clothing and purchase of second-hand clothing and furniture. A low level infestation can be difficult to detect as they’re elusive, transient and nocturnal, leaving little or no trace other than bites. They hide in cracks and crevices in bed frames and furniture, ironing boards, sofas, curtains, behind wallpaper, inside electrical equipment such as TVs, electric sockets, air vents, smoke detectors, light fittings and items kept under beds such as soft toys, slippers, shoes, spare bedding and tablecloths etc.
The most effective treatments are professional use insecticides and extreme heat.
Home remedies are unlikely to to be effective when treating bed bugs due to the nature of the insect.
We offer a Heat treatment programme followed by a professional use only insecticidal spray. With proper aftercare (provided by us), this a guaranteed treatment to kill all bedbugs.

Flies & Insects
The most common types of flies we deal with are house flies, fruit flies, drain flies, blowflies, bluebottles, greenbottles & cluster flies.
We can carry out the following treatment depending on the cause:
- Apply a residual insecticide to the interior walls and ceilings which kills all types of flies when they land on the treated surfaces. This can from last 1 to 3-months.
- A specialised insecticide is applied to drains which are being used as a breeding site by filters flies, sewage flies and drain flies.
- ULV - Fogging is the best way to get rid of cluster flies as it allows the insecticide to penetrate into the cracks where flies may be hibernating.

Rodent Control
Rats

Rats
Rats communicate and mark their territory by urinating everywhere they go, presenting a significant public health risk.
They can carry many nasty diseases, which can spread to humans, normally through rats’ urine or body coming into contact with food preparation areas.
How do we deal with rats?
A three part treatment for rodent control is usually recommended.
This includes a full inspection of the area to identify the root cause and install products as required. We can can use rodent proofing material to block the access point and prevent further access.
Two further follow-ups will be carried out within a timely manner.
Droppings will be removed where possible and disinfectant carried out at the end of the treatment

What can I do about pigeons nesting?
Birds such as Pigeons carry a variety of diseases such as Ornithosis, Listeria and E-coli that can be transmitted to humans not only from the droppings but also the birds themselves.
Pigeon droppings are acidic and can corrode/erode metals, stonework and brickwork. Nesting materials from birds can block chimneys, flues and guttering, causing possible issues with carbon monoxide and damage to buildings as water overflows from blocked gutters.

How to get rid of moles?
Although moles are very cute, they can cause a serious mess if left to roam your garden/land.
We find trapping to be the best option for moles. Trapping moles requires a general understanding of the complex tunnelling system and learning how to use the right trap effectively.
The obvious sign of activity is large mounds of dirt rising to the surface of ground. Not only does this look unsightly, it can cause damage to machinery/equipment e.g. lawnmowers.
Moles are solitary, which means they live alone. It is not uncommon for one mole to leave its tunnels and another to move in.
