fears of a
Pest Attack
Peace of mind is precious
A Pest Attack can mean:
- Unpleasantness or fear
The milder weather we are experiencing all the year round has increased the likelihood of pests invading the home. Pests are prime causes of disease and food poisoning, including salmonella. Wasp stings can be dangerous, especially to children. Apart from being unpleasant, pests present a serious risk to anyone who wants to keep their home clean, hygienic and safe.
- A desperate search for a reliable pest controller
Getting experts quickly may not be easy. There are lists of pest controllers in directories, but legally no qualifications are required, so how can one tell who is experienced and trustworthy? Local Authorities may respond in some areas of the country, but are often ill-equipped to provide help quickly.
- Unexpected costs
A single visit by a pest controller could cost anything from £50 to £150, plus more for return visits which are normally required for rats or mice. Councils will charge up to £100 for removal of a wasp nest, even if they are prepared to come. More complex problems involving a serious infestation could cost £300 or more, not counting damage to the structure.
Did you know...
Rats
Living in sewers and other places rats often have direct access into the home. With weak bladders, they urinate and defecate everywhere. Among the many diseases rats carry are salmonella and Weils disease which may be fatal.
Mice
Although smaller in size, mice present a similar problem to rats. Mice can produce 2,000 young a year; more than enough to overrun a house. They can also gnaw through good, electrical cables (one of the root causes of house fires) and pipe work.
Wasps
Wasps build nests everywhere and if left undisturbed can easily achieve populations of 25,000. Apart from carrying diseases similar to house flies, wasps carry the risk of anaphylactic shock, which can be fatal.
