Pests

---

Wasps are voracious predators and will certainly assit with the control of other pests such as aphids. With the growing incidence of severe allergic reactions to their sting though we understand the importance of controlling them when necessary. We offer a quick professional service for the treatment of wasps, utilising insecticides which do not aggravate the insects. 

Hornets are a member of the wasp family, the main difference being their larger size. They are normally quite docile in nature however they are more than capable of delivering a potenet sting. Identification of the species is important prior to treatment with insecticide as the UK now faces the threat of the Asian hornet, which is reportable to DEFRA for control and removal.

There are many different species of bee in the UK with their numbers in significant decline. Some species pose no threat to humans as they can not sting. If you have a swarm of bees we will happily relocate them but you will need to act quickly as when a swarm locate and enter a property they are very difficult to remove.

Ants don't actually pose a disease risk, however in the wrong place they do pose a contamination risk. There are many species of ant in the UK and identification is extremely important as utilising the wrong insecticide or delivery method can lead to an increase in ant numbers, it is also worth noting that many non professional poisons will not kill certain species.
