Squirrels Destroy Garden

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 697 Comments

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.

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.

Honey Bee’s Liverpool

May 18, 2016 by MERSEYPEST 16 Comments

Liverpool Bees.

Now is the time of massively increased bee activity across the country. Bumble bees are nesting under sheds, tree bees are finding nooks in trees and roofs, and honey bees hives are growing and splitting.

Most of the trees, shrubs, flowers and crops have been pollinated by bees. They are the most important insect when it comes to global pollination by far. They should be protected where possible.

In domestic and commercial properties they can still be a threat to the people who live or work there. They tend to be fairly harmless unless provoked but those with small children or/and animals would rather them be removed.

The picture above shows a honey bee hive in a pub. The upstairs rooms of the pub are also filling with bees regularly.

When bee’s become a nuisance to the property owner we can provide solutions to have them removed.

Rats Pest Control Liverpool

May 13, 2016 by MERSEYPEST 100 Comments

In Liverpool rats are one of the most common pests that we are plagued with. There frequency shows how high the population numbers are and how close they are to us at most times. Particularly in Liverpool city centre and in some of the higher population areas.

Any food source left outside can be quickly found by rats. In some areas birds can be fed outside for years without a problem. In others throwing bread out could be the start of an infestation in days.

An obvious way to avoid this kind of infestation is to not feed the birds, don’t keep livestock animals outside and keep all waste well sealed in wheelie bins.

But what if you get them anyway???

Another common place for rats to come from is from the drains. There is plenty of food down the drains which is washed off our plates and in to the drain systems. Rats are quite happy eating this in the sewers.

They are happy at least until its time to breed. When they want to raise a family these drain rats will approach the surface as drier, warmer places can be found. All it takes is an uncapped drain or redundant connection and they can be in to a buildings foundations.

The place we deal with them most is in extensions. A drain will be moved for the new building and the old drain capped with sandbags. This leaves an incredibly easy way in for rats. A few chews on a sandbag at the bottom and it will empty the sand. Then the rat is up the cavity or ducting and in to the extension roof space.

This picture shows the inside of an extension roof space. Rats are coming through an uncapped drain, climbing the ducting and living in the roof. This is the 3rd time its happened in this particular case. The drain needs fixing to shut the door to the rats.

We can fix these problems for you. We can kill the rats and solve your drain issues. Phone us for our permanent solutions on rat control in Liverpool.

Fruitfly in an Extractor Hood

October 6, 2015 by MERSEYPEST 55 Comments

A customer with a severe fruitfly infestation called us in after she couldn’t find the source of the problem.

After the inspection we found the flies breeding site up in the extractor hood. The customer cooks soups for her business on her home hob causing a large amount of deposit on the extractor. When the deposit/fly breeding site was cleaned the problem was sorted.

Fruit Fly Spray Liverpool

September 20, 2015 by MERSEYPEST 176 Comments

Pest Control Liverpool – MerseyPest

A morning spray for fruit fly. Even the smallest drops of spilt liquids can create fruit fly infestations. They are particularly fond of wines, lagers and syrups. Common places in bars for infestation is under the lines. Small amounts of liquids trickle down the line to create drips. The drips form a crust and the flies breed inside the drip.

Early starts are the only way to get this type of job done.

Chemicals can’t be sprayed when staff or customers are in.

A Very Large and Explosive Nest in Seaforth

September 16, 2015 by MERSEYPEST 86 Comments

When treating a wasp nest it is never known how explosive the reaction will be. Most nests will react strongly with a small number of extremely aggressive individuals. Some nests like this one literally explode with all the individuals highly aggressive.

It is probably due to factors such as ambient temperature and dust penetration/nest destruction.

If you ever attempt doing wasp nests yourself it is best to do them in the night time. Make sure you know exactly where the entrance hole is and treat using a dust. Wasps are cold in the night and don’t see well in the dark so there is practically no reaction.

If you wish to have us do it for you follow the links below.
