Animals, birds, rodents and insects are everywhere. They form an important part of the natural world; for example, without bees, the world would be a less colourful place with cross-pollination between flowers not happening if the bee cannot fly from flower to flower…
BUT, when these animals, insects etc. start to move in on our territory, it can make us very uncomfortable. Having fleas in our home embarrasses us, having rats in the garage make us feel distressed.
In many cases, pests are just that – a pest that can be easily got rid of. But, in some cases, pests can hurt us and cause ill-health. If you have a pest issue, even if you are unsure, call us sooner rather than later, for dealing with a pest issue in the early stages is much easier than those problems that have become established.
But, surely I can do it myself?
Many people try but, over-the-counter remedies are not as effective. You may also fall foul of the law; for example, ALL animals, birds and rodents are protected from ill treatment by law. Your pest eradication efforts could be construed as ill treatment, is the method you use causes suffering to the pest.
There are many other consideration to take into account, such as health and safety, as well as knowing the behaviour of some pests will also affect how pest to treat and eliminate them from an area.
The best course of action for any pest control issue – ants, bedbugs, fleas, flies, wasps, bees, cockroaches, carpet beetles, rabbits, moths, foxes, moles and more – is professional help:
