Pest Control in the North West has seen a lively and brisk this year which is somewhat surprising given the relatively cold winter of 2009/10.
Pest and Vermin controllers were kept occupied with the usual city centre rodent infestations all thoughout the winter of 2009/10, but the relatively cold early spring has already brought some ant infestation coming in.
The fairly wet summers of 2008 and 2009 were not to the liking of the hymenoptera (wasps, bees and ants) but 2010 looks like it will turn out to be a busy year for ant calls.
Often ants make nests under the floors of houses and inside cavity walls causing a large number of foraging ants to enter kitchens and food cupboards.
However it is at their mating time when they can be most annoying as they release winged queens and males which then mate on the wing.
The emergence of thousands of these winged ants inside homes can be traumatic indeed.
A somewhat new pest was especially numerous in the Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire area last year, the Varied Carpet Beetle (Anthrenus verbasci).
It was not common for pest controllers in Lancashire, Manchester and Cheshire to encounter these pests until lately but they seemed to appear from nowhere in 2008 and already this March 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 all fabrics. They are a difficult and tricky pest to get rid of.
Bed Bugs are carrying on their return in the Manchester, Cheshire and Lancashire area, regularly arriving as hitch-hikers in the suitcases of returning travellers.
Often the first reaction of unlucky people who realise that they are infested with these hideous,blood-sucking insects is to get rid of the old beds and get.
This is an unneccesary mistake as despite their name bed bugs do not just stay in beds and in an infested bedroom will be found everywhere within about five metres of the bed, in cupboards, drawers etc, even in electrical and telephone sockets and the new beds become instantly re-infested.
Many people mix up 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 regularly associate bed bugs with unhygienic conditions but nothing could be less true, they do not need grime, they eat you!
