Needle Removal Manchester – needle sweep and collection solutions
Did you know that Manchester Pest Control provides a safe and efficient needle sweep service to homes and businesses in Manchester, Stockport and Cheshire? That’s right, Needle Sweep Manchester is a subsidiary arm of our pest control business – because we realised over the years that in some (though we should emphasise, not all) of the places where we encounter vermin, there is often a variety of discarded waste in the vicinity. It’s likely that this is what attracted the unwelcome pests in the first place.
And in amongst some of that waste, we have observed an alarming range of used drug-taking equipment…
We’re talking about the kind of medical paraphernalia that gets used once or a limited number of times before losing its keenness and being discarded: sharps, needle-sticks, hypodermic syringes – all are associated with both legal (diabetes, self-managed drug program) and illegal (heroin and other opiates) drug-taking activities. There may also be razor blades, scalpels and knives lying about which are used in the preparation of certain drug compounds before use. If they’ve been placed loosely inside a bin liner (definitely NOT the correct method of disposal), they can end up sticking through or falling free on the ground.
Many of these items have the potential to cut or puncture the skin of adults, children and pets who come across them by accident. The dangers are evident, given the risk of exposure to blood traces potentially infected with pathogens as severe as Hepatitis and HIV. There are serious health implications that any infected individual may have to face up to in the short-term and for the rest of their life.
Town Councils in particular are mindful of their duty to protect members of the public who may encounter carelessly discarded hypodermics and other drug-taking equipment. Chaotic drug users may be so focused on getting their next high that they don’t even think about the consequences of discarding used needlesticks in parks, playgrounds, public toilets, or any secluded place where they can shoot up without much risk of being disturbed. This unfortunately may mean footpaths and alleys adjoining your home or business, or rooms within vacant premises that might have been broken into or end of tenancy properties.
If you find sharps, razor blades or any other medical waste in the area of your home or business, do not go any nearer than you have to – just the slightest pinprick or scratch can spread an infection to your central nervous system. It really isn’t worth the risk. Instead contact us here at Manchester Pest Control so that we can activate our safe and effective needle sweep service. Our people have the equipment and the know-how, and will operate to the latest UK Health and Safety requirements and in line with Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations.
Needle Sweep Manchester is a professional service available to , landlords and management agents acting on their behalf throughout Manchester, Stockport and Cheshire. We can also provide needle sweeps of affected business properties, educational establishments, public service providers, and private facilities at which drug users are provided sheltered accommodation or ongoing counselling support and treatment.

Bed bugs: A nightmare in homes
Here’s an unpleasant pest we’ve been itching to tell you about, and unfortunately you might have been itching too…
At Manchester Pest Control we do appreciate that this is no laughing matter. People will react to the presence of bed bugs in different ways, with some not experiencing much in the way of discomfort at all, so it can be hard to know when you have an infestation under your roof. Some family members or guests may have visible bites, which it is easy to confuse with being bitten by a mosquito, though a mosquito will bite at random. A series of bites in a straight line is more likely to be the work of a bed bug. This can cause unpleasant itching or a rash, which scratching could then cause to become infected.
We should stress that bed bugs aren’t dangerous, but this doesn’t make them any easier to live with. They’re not even a sign of a dirty home, but your home can feel dirty knowing they’re in it. And it’s understandable that you could be finding it difficult to sleep, either because you’re being bitten, worrying about being bitten, or just plain aware of their presence when you try and tuck down at night. It’s not something you want your family, house guests and pets being exposed to on a permanent basis either.
You can see bed bugs with the naked eye – adults are about half a centimetre long, rust-coloured, and have flat bodies which they can squeeze into tiny cracks and crevices, the seams of mattresses, and in and around headboards. You might find dead ones in your sheets if you have rolled onto them in the night. They don’t just confine their activity to the bedroom, however, and can quickly spread all over the home, to other furniture and carpets. A single female can lay up to 500 eggs in just a two month period. In a block of flats, it is very easy for them to spread from one flat to another.
Bed bugs may also enter your home on clothing or in luggage if you have been holidaying at a hotel or B&B where they are a problem. They can arrive in second-hand furniture or rugs. And once they are in your home, they can be very difficult to get rid of. Sometimes you might think the problem has gone away on its own or with a shop-bought remedy, but it is possible for a bed bug to survive almost a whole year without feeding. They have also become immune to an increasing number of insecticides – in fact, some insecticides used in close proximity to where you sleep may be more harmful to you than to the bed bugs!
Manchester Pest Control provides a safe, effective and discrete service to homes, hotels and B&Bs in the Manchester, Stockport and Cheshire areas. If you want the nightmare of bed bugs to be over, contact us today and we’ll ensure you sleep easy.
