Squirrel Footprints in the Roof

November 15, 2018 by MERSEYPEST Leave a Comment

A customer has been hearing noises in the roof space. There could be a few animals causing the noises. The most common are mice, rats, birds and squirrels.

An inspection of the roof space shows very obvious footprints in the dust. The size and shape show clearly it’s squirrels. To remove squirrels from roof spaces we use both traps and poisons.

They are placed and left for 2 weeks. The return visit will show the results. Squirrels can be tricky animals to control. Sometimes they will be killed by the traps, lured in by the peanut butter. Other times they won’t go near the traps but will take the poison. They are clever animals with distinct ‘personalities’ but control is still normally reached within 2 weeks.

We charge £85 for 2 visits

Rat in Roof Space

June 26, 2017 by MERSEYPEST Leave a Comment

Rat in Extension Roof

A rat has been heard in an extension roof space as a customer was working at his computer. It could be heard scrabbling up the internal Cavity of the wall and in to the roof. Once in the roof it could be heard hopping over the joists as it looked around.

On the initial inspection droppings and a hole leading in to the cavity were found. Bags of rodenticide were left. On the second visit the bait had been partly consumed and the bag pulled in to the insulation of the cavity. Smear marks of the red bait can be seen over the joists as the rat has tried to take as much bait as possible.

The outside of the property was carefully checked and no holes were found. Where there is no holes and rats are in the extension it often points to a problem in the drains letting the rats in.

A drain inspection is recommended to fix any flaws in the drain.

Roof Space Nuisance Squirrel

June 25, 2017 by MERSEYPEST Leave a Comment

Squirrels Liverpool

Squirrels can be one of the worst pests inside a house. They are large and noisy, with extremely sharp teeth that they chew on joists and pipes in the roof. They are extremely clever and if in a roof already they will already have a food source, so don’t except poisons well. Spring traps are the most effective way of getting rid of them.

This particular squirrel was caught on one of my favourite types that give an incredibly quick and clean kill.

A 2 visit treatment with this type of trap costs £85. It is incredibly effective getting rid of this hardy pest.

Phone to book a visit. See here for more information on squirrels.

Ants in Cavity Liverpool

June 24, 2017 by MERSEYPEST Leave a Comment

Ants in Cavity

Most ants nests start outside but the nest can expand under a wall of a house. Sometimes it can go unnoticed as the ants forage for food outside. The problems start when the nest starts to produce flying ants. The flying ants have one objective and that’s to fly in to the air to breed. The structure of a house provides a way the ants can try to get to as elevated position as possible. Often they erupt inside causing a huge issue for the homeowner.

We can easy treat such nests by treating in the cavity the ants are using by the use of either liquid insecticides or dust insecticides if there’s risk of electrics or damaging furnishings.

Sometimes the wall will need to be drilled to get the insecticide in to the nest.

Dead Mouse Smell

June 22, 2017 by MERSEYPEST Leave a Comment

Dead Mouse Smell

A business in town phoned to ask if we could identify where a dead mouse was in their premises. They have had a fairly recent infestation which they had dealt with using baits and sticky boards.

On inspection we discovered that they had forgot to remove one of the sticky boards and the mouse was in an advanced stage of decomposition.

Removing the sticky board instantly removed the smell and the staff could get back to business as normal.

Ants in Cavity Wall – Liverpool Pest Control

June 20, 2017 by MERSEYPEST Leave a Comment

Ants can be a huge problem over the summer months. One of the worst types of infestation is when they infest a cavity wall. This customer had ants in the cavity wall which had been there for a few years.

The solution for this is to drill the wall and apply the insecticide directly to the ants nest in the wall.

Squirrels Destroy Garden

June 20, 2017 by MERSEYPEST Leave a Comment

Pest control liverpool

Squirrels are commonly a pest in people’s roofs, chewing on wires and tearing up the insulation. They are normally seen as being non offensive when they are in the garden and not in the roof space.

This particular case was different for this customer. The squirrels have been pulling out any new plant in an otherwise pristine garden.

Traps were set around the garden for the offending animals to be removed. After 2 visits 4 squirrels were removed vastly improving the situation in the garden.

Rat Wirral

February 20, 2017 by MERSEYPEST Leave a Comment

Rat Wirral

Rats are always near by and will use any opportunity to exploit our houses. In this particular case on the Wirral rats have been in the drain and have dug a hole underneath the drain cover and under the flags.

The lower side of the drain cover and hole can be seen on the first photo. The second photo shows how the rats have dug under the flags and over to the edge of the house. Once against the house the rats had dug under an old door lintel and in to the house.

The customer had rats in her cavity walls on a few occasions until she called us to find and remove the problem.

The treatment process is relatively simple now the breach has been found. The flag was raised on house bricks (as seen on the second photo) to provide a baiting point for the rats. After 2 weeks a follow will be carried out. The bait will be eaten and the rats killed.

This is when we will dig along the wall to find the hole the rats are tunnelling too. The hole will be permanently blocked and the problem will be fixed for good.

If you have a problem with rats in Wirral, Liverpool or Warrington please phone us to to help you. We take pride in our work and want to help you solve your problems permanently.

A 2 visit rat treatment costs £85.

Bees Liverpool

Bees Liverpool.

Bumble bees in the last few years have become much more of a common problem for homeowners. They used to be a fairly uncommon call out. A nest under the shed or in an old rodent hole in the bottom of the garden.

Since the repopulation of the tree bee they are now an extremely common concern for owners. The tree bee nests in trees, bird boxes and roof spaces. The latter being the problem. Whilst the nests don’t cause to much of a problem in the house, the threat of stinging insects is always an issue to some folk. Removal and rehoming can be done in some circumstances whilst other times they have to be treated to solve the problem.

bees liverpool

At MerseyPest we guarantee we will solve your problem. A bee treatment costs £40. Rehoming is more complex and is priced per job (if even possible). A treatment is carried out using either an extending lance or by ladders and directly applying insecticide to the nest. The insecticide is blown in using a high pressure duster. The dust does not cause any problem to the building.

Phone now to book your bee treatment. Bee’s Liverpool.
