Bird Mites

Bird mites can quickly invade your living space, especially after birds have nested in your roof or nearby areas. These tiny pests can cause itching and discomfort, making them more than just a nuisance.

Recommended Treatment

We thoroughly treat infested areas, focusing on the roof void and areas where bird nests are present. To prevent recurrence, we recommend you bird-proof affected areas, ensuring that entry points are sealed.

Prevention Tips

  • Regularly check and clear bird nests from gutters, eaves, and roofs.
  • Use bird-proofing measures like netting or spikes.
  • Seal gaps around windows, doors, and roof spaces to prevent entry.

Carpet Beetles

Carpet beetles may be small, but they can cause significant damage to natural fibres like wool, silk, and leather. Infestations often go unnoticed until the damage is done.

Recommended Treatment

Our treatment focuses on the infested areas of your carpets, particularly in low-traffic zones and near windows where beetles tend to enter. We apply a safe and effective solution, ensuring minimal disruption to your home, and we provide guidance on how to prevent future infestations.

Prevention Tips

  • Vacuum carpets, rugs, and furniture regularly, especially in low-traffic areas.
  • Store fabrics in sealed containers, especially natural fibres.
  • Inspect windows and door frames for gaps where beetles could enter.

Clothes Moths

Clothes moths thrive in dark, undisturbed areas like wardrobes and storage spaces. Left unchecked, they can damage your clothing and other fabrics.

Recommended Treatment

We treat storage areas where clothes are kept, paying special attention to the cracks and corners where moths hide. Our methods ensure thorough protection without directly treating your clothes, keeping your items safe while eliminating the problem.

Prevention Tips

  • Store clothes in airtight containers or vacuum-sealed bags.
  • Regularly clean and air out wardrobes and storage areas.
  • Use natural deterrents like cedar wood or lavender sachets to repel moths.

Flies

Flies can be more than just annoying—they spread bacteria and contaminate food, especially in kitchens and dining areas.

Recommended Treatment

We treat both indoor and outdoor areas where flies are commonly found.

As part of a comprehensive fly control plan, we focus on eliminating breeding sites and fly resting areas to minimise the problem.

Prevention Tips

  • Keep doors and windows closed or use fly screens.
  • Dispose of rubbish regularly and keep bins tightly sealed.
  • Clean up food spills promptly, especially in kitchens and outdoor areas.
