Simple Solutions To Your Pest Problem

We often associate pests with dingy and dirty
properties that haven't had a clean in a long
time; this however is not always the case. Any
home or organisation could be hit at any point
by creepy crawlies and critters; and we should
constantly be on the look out to see if we've
been hit.

Both inside and outside areas can fall victim to
unwanted visitors; from overflowing bins outside,
to crumbs and mess inside, no environment is
closed off from the perspective of the pest. The
most common pests include mice and rats, ants and
other bugs, and even though they might not be
thought of one; birds can also cause great
problems in terms of damage and contamination.

Carrying tonnes of bacteria and diseases, it's
no wonder why we don't want pests invading our
homes and businesses. Not only do we want to
protect ourselves, but we also want to provide a
good impression to visitors and clients; taking
this into consideration, it's best to spot a
problem early before it gets out of control. So
what should we be looking out for?

Although mice and rats tend to come out later at
night, the most common sign for spotting that
you've had visitors in the evening is droppings.
They're usually easy to spot and identify, and
can be used by specialists to tell how serious
the infestation is, and the type of problem they
may be dealing with. With this knowledge at hand,
they'll be able to deal with the issue more
efficiently.

Another one of the major pests, and this usually
focuses around summer time, but can be any time
in the year, is bugs such as ants, beetles,
slugs and snails. Nobody likes coming into
contact with these, and it can leave you with a
slimy or itchy feeling when you know the problem
is still there. To combat this, there are many
different actions you can take depending on the
pest. However in some cases of extreme
infestations, it's best to get in the experts.

Finally, one of the least thought of pests are
birds; although we may have them nesting outside
of our windows, and waking us up in the morning;
the common pigeon is seen as less harmful. This
however isn't true; holding lots of different
types of bacteria and disease, they really do
earn their nickname 'rats with wings' in terms
of how harmful they can be to our health. Birds
are often trickier to handle; hiding up in high
up places, or burrowing themselves in lofts and
small spaces, they can be difficult to get rid
of; however luckily for us, there are lots of
specialists out there that can help us with any
issues.
