TDC Pest Control Tips & Information

Bees and wasps: what are they and what do they do?

Species of bees that are subject to pest control

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

• Honey bees are black and yellow-orange in colour and may build their nests anywhere, with the appearance of a fluffy head and smooth body.

• 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.

• Bumble bees are the largest of the bee species. Fluffy all over, black with yellow bands and like honey bees, will their build nests anywhere.

Identifying a bee or wasp infestation

There are a few tell-tale signs to confirm if you have bees or wasps lurking in your home, from checking your attic or loft for a wasps nest, to the dark and dry corners of your property, as wasps prefer to build their nests here (unlike bees that are able to build their nests anywhere). Alternatively, if you notice structural damage to your property such as holes in the walls and damaged mortar between bricks, it is likely that you are suffering from a masonry bee infestation

Bed Bugs: What are they and what do they do?

Bed Bugs are small, oval parasites that feed on human blood. Measuring at approximately 5mm in length, these pests live around the seams of mattresses and headboards, however they also prefer to inhabit small, dark spaces, including the back of furniture, a chest of drawers and even a crack in the wall. The reddish-brown pest can leave bites all over the body, in which can cause great irritation, worsening when scratched.

Identifying a bed bug infestation

Some of the most effective ways of identifying if you have a bed bug problem can include:

• Appearance of black dirt on flooring, walls, around seams of mattresses and headboards
• Numerous irritating bites, all over the body
• Small, reddish-brown to black bugs in small spaces, for example a crack in the wall

How are bed bugs treated by a pest controller?

Bed Bugs can be treated by an expert pest controller by using a water-based insecticide spray. It is important that the treated premises is vacated for at least four hours after the treatment. Bed bugs can contaminate an entire property so it is very important that as much of the area as possible is treated.

Rodents: What are they and what do they do?

There are three types of rodents in which are commonly treated by TDC Pest Control, including rats, mice and squirrels. We have included some helpful tips on identifying the key signs that suggest you may have an infestation, and the steps you can take to ensure your domestic or commercial property is pest free in no time.

Identifying a rodent infestation

Whether you’re worried about mice infesting your home, or you own a commercial property and suspect you may be experiencing a problem with rats, the thought of these rodents in your property can be unbearable. However, this problem can easily be resolved by TDC Pest Control. There are a few ways to confirm if you have rats or mice lurking in your premises, including:

• Shredded papers and materials
• Smear marks on any skirting boards
• A strong smell of urine in various areas of your property
• Noises at night, as rats and mice are nocturnal
