Controlling Ants

Controlling Ants

Ants are one of the more difficult household pests to control. Damage to dwellings from ants is caused over a long period of time through soil removal from paving and foundations. To effectively treat the problem, the ants need to carry the ant bait back to the nest, so that the queen ant feeds on it and the reproduction cycle is halted. Treatment is a combination of barrier “spray/drenching”, with granular or gel treatment. Ant treatment is normally a once off with a follow-up if necessary.

Controlling Birds

Controlling Birds

Bird proofing ensures the humane control of problem birds which can cause destruction to property and spread diseases if allowed to nest freely in a domestic or industrial setting. Bird proofing is normally a combination of bird spikes, a repellent gel and proofing using wire screens or mesh.

Controlling cockroaches

Controlling Cockroaches

Cockroaches breed in a six week cycle and need to be treated early to prevent infestation. Treatment is normally a spray and/or gel treatment, with fumigation only in cases of bad infestation. There is no need to vacate premises for standard treatment. Cockroaches can be treated as a once off , but in commercial or industrial premises you should have an on-going service.

Controlling rodents

Controlling Rodents

Rodents breed in a six week cycle. If children or pets are on the premises then rodent bait should be placed in tamper proof rodent bait boxes. Rodent treatment can be once off for short-term results, but preferably is ongoing.

Controlling Flies

Controlling Flies

Fly control generally need a combination of treatments to control, using a combination of surface spray repellents, insect light traps, insecticidal aerosol spray dispensers or granular treatments. Fly control needs to be ongoing, particularly in summer.

Controlling Termites

Controlling Termites

The main species here are drywood termites, that live within the wood (e.g. skirting boards) and have no contact with soil, or the subterranean termite, which is identified by a “mudpack” above ground level. It is often found in the bottom of kitchen or bathroom cupboards, attracted by the moisture and the cellulose in the wood which they feed off. Subterranean Termite treatment is a onceoff, with a guarantee of two to five years.

Controlling Harvester Termites

The harvester termite is a pest of lawns or other grassy areas. The nest is underground. While mainly feeding off the cellulose in grass, they can be found in non-woody materials containing cellulose, such as thatch, paper, clothing and ceiling cornices. Harvester termite treatment on lawns could require followup after the initial treatment.
