Romford Vermin Control

Vermin can describe a number of different types of pests. Since there is no legal classification for vermin, the phrase is typically thought to refer to rodents such as mice, rats and grey squirrels as well as insects like ants, wasps, bed bugs and cockroaches. Vermin are commonly nuisance pests which can spread disease or cause other health and safety issues such as contaminating food. If you suspect there might be a vermin infestation on your premises, it’s important to speak to a qualified pest control company immediately as pests might breed rapidly and cause more problems.

The method of pest control for vermin will change 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 vital to eliminate 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 generally do not try and force their way in. Eliminating their access to food may require covering pet food and correctly storing all dried foodstuffs. Removing the access to shelter may involve correctly securing basements and roof spaces by blocking up any spaces, and making certain external walls don’t have any small spaces for them to enter through.

Experienced pest control companies can help you with the best way to deal with a vermin problem. This will most likely involve a treatment of the region coupled with help and advice on how to prevent the pests from coming back.
