Some common Insect Pests that our staff frequently deal with …

Beetles

There more than 4000 beetle species in the UK. Carpet Beetles, Hide Beetles and Larder Beetles are among some of the most common pests. Carpet beetles are a particular indoor pest. They are extremely destructive to woollen items, furs, leathers, fabric furniture and carpets, but can be effectively tackled with professional strength insecticides.

Moths

It’s not the moths themselves but their larvae which are the problem as they can feed on dry stored materials and fabric and can cause considerable (and costly) damage. There more than 2,000 UK moth species but four are a particular problem indoors– the brown house moth, the white shouldered clothes moth, the common clothes moth and the case bearing clothes moth. Can be tackled with traps, monitoring and heat.

Cluster Flies

Incredibly, there are thought to more than 7,000 fly species in the UK. Cluster flies are a particular pest as they cluster up indoors in their thousands in winter. We do however treat many types of fly problems including house fly and fruit fly infestations.

Spiders

There are some 650 spider species in the UK of which only about 12 are thought to bite, including the false widow spider (pictured). Common species found in and around the house include the house spider and daddy longlegs spider.

Mosquitos and Midges

Both of these kinds of biting insects are dependent on water and their presence indoors may mean some focus on proofing is required. It’s the females that eat your blood, but in the UK they are not believed to transmit serious disease.
