Pest Control in Cheshire, Lancashire and Manchester has seen a lively start (2010) which is somewhat unexpected given the relatively cold (weather of this last winter|winter of 2009/10}.
Pest controllers were kept working with the usual city centre rats and mice problems all thoughout the winter of 2009/10, but the relatively cold early part of the year has already provided some ant infestations reported.
The damp summers of 2008 and 2009 were not to the liking of the hymenoptera (sawflies, wasps, ants & bees) but 2010 looks like being a active year for flying ant work.
Usually ants make their nests under the floors of buildings and inside cavity walls causing a large number of foraging ants to infest food store areas.
However it is at mating time when they can be most distressing as they release winged males and queens which then fly off to mate.
The emergence of thousands of these flying ants inside your house can be traumatic in the extreme.
A fairly new pest was especially numerous in the Lancashire, Manchester and Cheshire area last season, the Varied Carpet Beetle (Anthrenus verbasci).
It was unusual for pest controllers in Lancashire, Manchester and Cheshire to meet these pests until recent times but they seemed to appear from nowhere in recent times and already this season has seen sightings of these insects in unprecedented numbers.
They 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 all fabrics. They can be a difficult and tricky pest to remove.

This is an expensive error 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 yards of the bed, in cupboards, drawers etc, even in electrical wall sockets and the new beds become quickly re-infested.
