Vermin can describe a number of types of pests. While there is no legal definition for vermin, the phrase is normally thought 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 typically nuisance pests which can spread disease or cause other health and safety issues such as contaminating food. If you believe there might be a vermin infestation on your premises, it’s important to speak to a specialist pest control company immediately as pests might breed very quickly and cause more problems.
The method of pest control for vermin will vary depending on the species. While rodents tend to be caught using traps, insects are usually controlled by using an insecticide delivered either as a spray or as a powder. Additionally, it’s important to remove the access to food and shelter. Most pets will only venture into homes or other structures where it is possible for them to do so, meaning that if you take steps to protect your property they usually do not try and force their way in. Getting rid of their access to food may require covering pet food and appropriately storing all dried foodstuffs. Getting rid of the access to shelter may require correctly securing basements and roof spaces by blocking up any spaces, and making sure external walls do not have any small gaps for them to enter through.
Professional 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.
