There are lots of species of moths but generally fall into two categories; those that eat textiles and those that eat food.

In this case they consume keratin in natural fibres, wool in clothes and carpet, feathers in cushions, fur coats, linen, flax etc. the best way for fast knockdown of animals it to wash everything natural that can be washed at 60oC. If item is too delicate it can be frozen for 48 hours, or washed at 40. If possible items should be thrown away.

Moth treatment is applied to carpet and floors. This is because it is where the larvae are found. Larvae damage the natural fibres (adults do not).

Professional bedbug treatment to eliminate infestations. Our service includes a thorough inspection, targeted application of insecticides, and follow-up visit to ensure complete eradication. We use safe and effective methods to protect your home and family.

Bedbugs are probably the hardest pest to deal with here in the UK. We currently have 100% success rate on infestations with a two part visit. We spray coarse insecticide into all cracks and crevices on the property. We focus heavily on the bed, bed frame, slats, headboard, bolts and joints in the bed which is typical harbourage locations for bedbugs. We also use smoke generator to flush the bedbugs out of harbourage locations and into the insecticide. On heavy infestations we will also use diatomaceous earth as a barrier. We use bedbug traps to monitor activity between visits.

The cost of treatment is £221 per visit. So two part treatment is £442. This includes one smoke generator and traps. Additional generators can be used if needed.

Squirrels usualy enter at high level into loft spaces. We will inspect loft areas to find evidence of squirrel activity. We will then lay traps for squirrels (which is the only approved method of their control).

As squirrels are unpredictable we will follow up free of charge after two weeks. We will use a camera during this time to monitor squirrel activity.

After this we will return in two weeks for the final visit to remove the traps and squirrels as well as proof their entry holes and provide recommendations to discourage their activity in the future.

There are many different factors with rodent infestation which require a bespoke approach to each infestation. Because of this we offer a free of charge survey. We will come to the property and assess the infestation. We are looking to identity the pest, how it entered, how to stop it entering and how to solve the issue for the customer long term. Typically we will check external perimeter of the property, garden, roof void, kitchen, drainage and any other locations with activity.

In regards to treatment we prefer not to use poison, trapping instead as it is more humane, efficient and the customer knows the issue is resolved. It will also prevent bad smells from decaying animals inside walls of the property.
