Coleraine Pests

There is a variety of pests in the United Kingdom. Typical household pests include cockroaches, ants, flies, moths, mice, rats and fleas. These pests all behave in different ways and will require different methods of treatment depending on both their species and the size and location of the infestation. Pests can cause damage to homes and property, contaminate food and may even spread diseases. In addition, pests are a nuisance, which means they affect your enjoyment of your home and cause stress to those impacted. Small infestations may be handled yourself, but sizeable infestations or those that could spread diseases should be treated by specialist pest control companies.

Qualified pest control companies can advise you on the most effective way to treat your pest infestation. This could include the use of poison bait, insecticides or traps to kill any moving pests, as well as prevention methods such as cleaning the environment and eliminating any entry routes that the pests are employing. When looking for a pest control company, pick one which is certified by the British Pest Control Association.

The key to an effective pest control treatment is correct identification of the species that is causing the infestation as various species will respond differently to treatments. It’s also critical to make sure that any food sources or access routes that the pests were making use of are removed and do not reoccur as it is likely that pests will reappear.
