Pest and vermin control in Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire has seen a lively start in 2010 which is very surprising given the somewhat colder (weather of this last winter|winter of 2009/10}.

Pest and Vermin controllers were kept busy with the usual city centre rodent infestations during the winter of 2009/10, but the relatively cold late winter has already provided some ant infestation coming in.

The wet summers of 2008 and 2009 were not to the benefit of the hymenoptera (wasps, bees and ants) but this year looks like it will turn out to be a busy year for ant problems.

Regularly ants make their nests under the floors of buildings and inside cavity walls causing an army of foraging ants to infest food store areas.

However it is at the annual mating time when they are at their most troublesome as they create winged queens and males which then fly off to mate.

The appearance of several thousands of these winged ants inside your home can be horrific indeed.

A somewhat new pest was very troublesome in the Lancashire, Manchester and Cheshire area last season, the Varied Carpet Beetle (Anthrenus verbasci).
