Manchester Bumble Bee Removal- Bumble Bee Nest Treatment

Often Copied, never matched! eMail:manchesterpest@gmail.com

Its important to remember that the bumble bees you will encounter in Manchester and Cheshire are not dangerous as such as individuals. A sole bee will be easy to shoo away and shouldn’t be more than a minor annoyance for a brief time. However, if their nest is threatened, bumble bees can and will swarm and become aggressive, as you would expect. Another important thing to remember is that while only the female can sting (male drones are pleasing to look at on flowers and plant life in a hairy, droning, bumbling way), but they are able to sting multiple times each – unlike other bee species. For anyone allergic to bee stings, this can of course be very dangerous. We Can Treat you pest Problems with Bees and We Cover Manchester Stockport And Cheshire Areas

If you do find a bumble bee nest in a problematic location in your property, anywhere in Manchester or Stockport, don’t attempt to deal with it yourself or without the correct equipment. Bees are a vital part of our ecosystem and are not a pest as such, therefore elimination should always be a last resort and relocation is the preferred method of control. Call Manchester Pest Services and our technicians will visit you and provide expert advice on how best to deal with the situation.

Fleas: All you need to know, to know you don’t want them!

A Pulicosis (flea bite!) is an irritating troublesome thing much like the insects themselves. Despite flea’s being about 2.5 mm long, they can prove a challenge to remove from a property. With the increase in popularity of furry pets, there is a resulting increase in flea infestations but Manchester Pest Control can deal with flea problems quickly and efficiently, as well as advising on future prevention.

How dangerous is a flea?

Flea bites are very itchy and can be quite painful. A flea bite can transfer tapeworms, and commonly cause severe allergic reactions in our pets. Reports are showing these dermatitis type reactions are now occurring in people. On a much rarer note, fleas have been shown to act as a carrier of the bubonic plague, as well as bacterial diseases from infected rats to humans.

Whilst a flea bite is not the most lethal of insect bites, and there is no immediate need to seek Doctor’s advice, the itchy can become intense, and careful monitoring is required in case more serious reactions occur. Flea’s live for around 3.5 months, with each female laying around 2000 eggs in that time, so quickly become overwhelming. They have often been feeding and breeding for up to 2 months before you will become aware of their existence.

Flea’s feed on blood as their sole source of nutrition and can take up to 15 times their own body weight in blood! Their legs are like grippers and once on a host with warm fresh blood, their legs latch onto the skin and pierce through the outer layer to the blood. They inject some of their saliva into the host first, which acts as a numbing agent – this is why you rarely feel the bite itself. The saliva contains over a dozen different substances and it’s these that can set of severe reactions in pets and humans.  Once a female has mated, she will breed for the rest of her lifetime and needs fresh blood at least twice a day, hence recurrent bites even from a small population.

Can I see fleas? How do I know they are there?

Fleas can be present on hosts or in the environment such as soft furnishings, at varying times. They are also very agile, and whilst they cannot fly, they are able to leap up to 8” (like a human being able to jump as high as a skyscraper!) so movement between hosts is not a problem.  They are covered in tiny hairs that allow them to move easily between fur and fibres.  They are so small, you rarely see them on humans, but the hard, red-brown shiny shell can be seen on pets on examination at advanced stages of infestation. Unfortunately their shells make them rather difficult to squish and kill.  You will become aware of their presence by their bites – small red lumps – typically around your arms if you stroke/cuddle your pet a lot or your legs as the pet rubs against you.  However, if soft furnishings, such as a throw over a bed or couch are infected, you can get bites occurring anywhere on the body. You or your pet will also be itchy significantly.

Fleas lay eggs in the safety of fur, but the eggs are small white and slippery and will slide off onto the ground. These won’t be visible to the human eye. Larvae hatch from the eggs around a week later but these are only measure 1 to 2 mm in length and white so still difficult to see.  Mature larvae develop into pupa – a small silky cocoon and while stay like this for between 3 weeks to a year depending on conditions. These may appear as specks of dust along skirting boards for example.  Vibrations through the floor are picked up within the cocoon, letting the adult flea know to emerge as there is likely to be a host about.  They wait for you or the pet to wander past and jump on to ensure they get life-sustaining blood to keep their life cycle going.  Whilst you may see the odd flea there will be hundreds that you can’t, in varying stages of life.

Good news for humans we are their least favourite type of host, and they avoid us if they can. There are different species of fleas, with cat fleas the most prolific, followed by dog and bird fleas and the rarer human fleas, so they tend to stick to the primary type of hosts where possible.  Even responsible pet owners with good flea management routines can still experience fleas from time to time due to the easy spread and large numbers of them, and even non-pet owners can experience fleas by a visitor forgetting their hat when they leave, that is one of their cats favourite cuddle spots, or borrowing a chair or textiles from an infested property.

Once they are present, the only way to get rid of fleas involves the use of pesticides. Whilst some home flea treatments are available over the counter in various shops, these are often ineffective and weak in strength.  If you think you have fleas, call Manchester Pest Control and we can remove these unwanted guests safely and professionally.

Mouse in the house in Manchester? Mice in the Workplace? Manchester pest control are experts in dealing with mice

While an unwanted mouse population may spiral out of control, our costs for extermination won’t. If you become infested with mice, we offer a fixed cost service, as we know how invasive vermin can be.

Whether you are a business or a home owner, we never charge for site surveys. To maximise the advantage in the battle against your furry pests,  we still aim for a fast, efficient 24 hour service for pest control treatment to fully commence.

Particularly with businesses and the potential variations in size and environment, we will always carry out on site to assess the scale and particulars of the infestation, to ensure we can tackle the situation effectively with minimal disruption to your day to day routine. We will clarify numbers and locations of the mice, leaving you to earn a living!

We have summarized details of this service below but don’t hesitate to call us on 0161 448 1782 for clarification of any aspects, whether it’s cost or technical details, one of our professional specialists will discuss the process in full.

What happens during the treatment process?

A light to medium infestation can usually be remedied with a few visits carried out over a 3-4 week period.

Mouse bait boxes will be placed at strategic locations throughout the premises, each containing a rodenticide which is fatal to mice. Don’t worry as all boxes are locked by key and can’t be crushed either – they are specially designed so small children and most pets can’t access the contents in any way.  Stations can be placed discreetly such as under fixtures and fittings or behind furniture, inside cupboards and so on.  In larger commercial premises they can also be placed in basements or electrical cupboards, boiler rooms or even below raised floors.

For subsequent visits, the technician will assess station locations for effectiveness, and moving them if needed, as well as checking every station and refreshing the contents, safely removing any visible waste elements created by the process.

They will also carry out, as part of the standard service should you require the service  at a Extra cost, basic mouse proofing like blocking gaps around skirting boards or pipes. Furthermore the technician will look at housekeeping or hygiene arrangements that may be impacting on the situation, suggesting improvements if appropriate.

Please note, any food preparation areas, equipment or surfaces MUST be hot washed immediately before use, if mice are suspected. Bacteria from their urine can cause illness so stored food should be checked for signs of mouse activity regularly and disinfecting wiping carried out to control bacteria transfer.

 

House Mouse: Summary facts

The house mouse has a unique musky smell which can be the first indicator they are nearby, but they can be easily recognised by their large ears and eyes set in a relatively small head, and a long tail (as long as rest of the body and head put together).They can sometimes be confused for young brown rats but they will have small ears/eyes. House mice tend to be the same colour all over – normally brown or light grey, but fur colour does vary and can even appear very dark. Whilst mainly active at night, they can be seen during the day, especially if they are feeding a litter or are well established in the environment and food supplies are under pressure. Their agility is impressive – a house mouse can run up vertical surfaces with minimal texture, and along horizontal cables. A true acrobat and can jump from the floor onto a flat surface. In fact they can jump 30 cm straight into the air (in human terms, jump onto the roof of a house!).  Down isn’t a problem either as a mouse can jump down twelve foot safely (a human jumping off a ten storey building without injury).  So where do they get the energy from?

Mice will eat anything, but anything of a seed-like or grain natures are particular favourites, along with sweet items which smell particularly tasty. A fully grown mouse needs a minimum of 3g of food and 3ml of water to survive, and even with a full tummy an adult mouse will only weigh around 30 grams. Given a plentiful supply of food they will still forage and hide extra for future sustenance. Most of their water comes from the food itself so even with water supply cut off, mice are adept at survival.  Did you know a mouse can even go for a longer time without drinking than camels?  However, it does mean their bladders are poorly trained, so droplets of urine will be all around areas the mice inhabit.

What goes in must come out – found shiny black grains of rice lying about? These are recent faeces of a house mouse!  If these small grains of rice are dull black, the good news is the droppings are older in origin.

Mice typically gnaw small, clean holes about 3-4 centimetres in diameter, however if a biro pen can fit in a hole so can a house mouse! While they can nest outside in ground burrows or general rubbish, they use soft materials for their nests such as insulation, furniture stuffing or paper.  Common sites for nests include inside furniture or appliances, drawers or boxes, even inside ceiling voids or cavity walls.

Nice comfortable nests, and a food supply, are perfect breeding grounds, and it’s no surprise mice numbers multiply exponentially. A mouse can have as many as 8 litters in a year, with anything from 4 to 16 young in each.  Factor in each new born mouse becomes sexually mature by the time it is 12 weeks old, and you can understand why prompt action is crucial to get your unwanted furry visitors under control.

If you see a mouse, call us out, as there are likely to be many more mice you can’t see in the building.

Wasp nest Treatment Manchester Stockport Cheshire  £59.50

 

Manchester Pest Control is an independent pest control company offering exceptional and effective wasp nest treatment services. Sometimes however, treatment is not enough and the nest will need to be removed. This does incur extra costs.

 

Usually nests should be left once treated as they are never reused by wasps due to hygiene reasons. Read about the lifecycle of the wasp here.

 

But in some locations the nest needs to be removed. This is done after the usual treatment process, either later in that day or the next day. If a nest needs to be removed quickly, then there are rapid acting insecticides that kill the wasps inside the nest instantly, although wasps out foraging are unaffected.
Keep in mind that not all pest controllers have fast acting insecticides, so if you need an emergency wasp nest removal, check that the controllers are able to perform the task.

 

Most people will only have to deal with a wasp’s nest a few times in their lives. We usually encounter customers who have never had a nest on their property before. Their first response assumes removing the nest is a necessary course of action, but there are in fact good reasons for leaving the nest in place once it has been treated.

 

Typical insecticide dust is long lasting, and is not harmful to humans and other mammals. When a nest is treated the dust remains in the nest, which will contaminate any wasps from other colonies that attempt to raid the treated nest. These wasps will contaminate their nest too, resulting in another wasp colony destroyed. Treating one nest can therefore treat entire areas of wasp populations.
