TDC Pest Control Questions & Answers

Moles

What are moles and what do they do?

Moles are burrowing mammals measuring at approximately 12-15cm in length, with a dark, brown-black fur covered body. These mammals are virtually blind and live underground, manoeuvring through and creating a network of tunnels. Consequently, they are known to leave mounds of earth on the surface, although are mainly considered as a pest if they cause damage to the property itself.

If I have more than one mole hill does this mean I have more than one mole?

Not necessarily, the number of mole hills does not reflect on the number of moles. It is likely that if you have a small garden, there is only one mole causing the damage.

Bees & Wasps

What are the differences between bees and wasps?

Bees – Masonry bees are the main pest subject to pest control, due to their ability to create cavities and potentially cause structural damage such as drilling holes in walls. The preferred method of dealing with the bees is via the Bee Keeping Association.

Wasps – Wasps infest during the warmer months of the year. Measuring at approximately 2cm in length, with smooth, black and yellow striped bodies. Wasps tend to build nests in dark and dry corners, forming colonies and causing a nuisance in your home.

What are the different types of bees?

There are three different species of bees that may cause customers to contact us:

• Honey bees have a fluffy head with a smooth body. They are black and yellow-orange in colour and may build their nests anywhere.
• Bumble bees are the largest of the bee species. Fluffy all over, black with yellow bands and may their build nests anywhere.
• Masonry bees are the smallest of the bee species and are black and orange in colour. These bees drill into brick work to create cavities to build nests, potentially causing structural damage and considered to be a pest to your property.

Why is it necessary to wait at least 24 hours after discovering a bees or wasps nest to have it treated?

It is normally suggested that the customer should wait at least 24 hours before contacting a pest controller about a bees or wasps nest as generally they tend to move on during this time period. If they are still prominent after 24 hours, then it is suggested that the customer contacts the British Bee Keeping Association first, and then a pest controller after this.

Moths

What are moths and what do they do?

Moths are butterfly-like insects that vary in size and colour. Often feeding on fine, natural textiles such as cashmere and silk, moths have extremely good taste in quality materials and can ruin clothing if left untreated.

What types of moths are there?

There are commonly two types of moth that may require pest control treatment:

• Clothes Moths – Clothes moths infest clothing and moths. They most frequently occur in knitwear such as wool, cashmere or angora, as well as other natural fabrics such as silk and leather garments. Clothes moths hold three different forms, from their tiny 5mm eggs, to the moth larvae growing as they develop. Once adult form, clothes moths are usually around 1.5mm long. Although easier to spot in flight, due to their size they are able to fit into tight crevices in your wardrobe.
• Cereal Moths – Cereal moths infest cereals and cereal-based products. These pests can be present but often go unnoticed until they become abundant.

What can I do if I have tried to prevent moths and still have an infestation?

If you have taken precautions to prevent moths from infesting your home and still have an infestation, call in TDC Pest Control. Our fully certified pest controllers will ensure that the moth infestation is treated quickly and efficiently.
