Vermin can describe several different types of pests. While there is no legal classification for vermin, the phrase is commonly considered to make reference to rodents such as mice, rats and grey squirrels as well as insects like ants, wasps, bed bugs and cockroaches. Vermin are generally nuisance pests which can spread disease or cause other health and safety issues such as contaminating food products. If you suspect there might be a vermin infestation on your premises, it’s important to speak to a specialist pest control company immediately as pests could breed rapidly and create more problems.
The approach to pest control for vermin will change depending on the species. While rodents tend to be caught using traps, insects are typically controlled by using an insecticide delivered either as a spray or as a powder. In addition, it’s critical to eliminate the access to food and shelter. Most animals will only venture into homes or other properties where it’s possible for them to do so, meaning that if you take steps to protect your home they will not try and force their way in. Eliminating their access to food may involve covering pet food and correctly storing all dried foodstuffs. Removing the access to shelter may require properly securing basements and roof spaces by blocking up any spaces, and making certain external walls do not have any small spaces for them to enter through.
Specialist pest control companies can inform you of the best way to deal with a vermin problem. This will usually involve a treatment of the area coupled with help and advice on how to prevent the pests from returning.
