Enfield Insect Pest Control

Although their sting can occasionally cause allergic reactions and anaphylactic shock, many people find their presence inoffensive, and often delay calling for professional help. A bee infestation inside a property can be difficult to maintain in the long run, however, and there is a constant risk of provoking a swarm.

Our technicians undertake special training to remove bee hives without damaging them or killing their inhabitants, which makes the removal of a nest one of our less intrusive and destructive operations, and thus a far easier proposition than it may seem.

Few people are prepared to live in close proximity to wasps, and wasps find humans just as difficult to live with, often attacking and stinging multiple times when they feel threatened. Enfield Wasp Control understand that removing wasp nests is often an urgent priority, especially when they have built their hive inside a house, and so we pursue a very direct course of action when dealing with them.

We use a substances called Bendiocarb, which is present in some commercially-available pesticides, and yet which only our technicians are qualified to use in the high concentrations needed to swiftly and completely knock out the population of a hive.

Hornets are the probably the largest and most venomous insect that we deal with, and with changing weather patterns it is expected that the considerably more poisonous and occasionally lethal Asian Hornet may migrate to Britain quite soon.

Hornet infestations are some of the most challenging jobs that we undertake, since failing to completely destroy a hive in one go will only cause the hornets to enter an aggressive swarm state. For this reason, we advise that you rely on professionals, as even our trained operators require high-end protective gear and powerful chemicals to deal with these infestations safely.

Cluster Flies do not lay their eggs on human food, and they pose little in the way of risks, but they do actively seek out human habitations to hibernate in and they can be very irritating. We will always recommend that you deal with cluster flies early, as when they are still in a state of hibernation they will cluster together, allowing our technician to get rid of them in one go with minimal problems.

If allowed to survive past their hibernation, they will often swarm throughout the house, making elimination slightly more tricky, although still just as possible.

Many people accept bed bugs as a fact of life, since they pose little danger and seem impossible to ever fully eliminate. Although they are mostly harmless, they are among the most difficult insects that we deal with at Enfield Insect Control, since they are able to survive many insecticides, and a single surviving bed bug can produce up to 4000 new young. While many people give up hope of getting rid of bed bugs, or turn to ineffectual temporary treatments.

Enfield Bed bug Control has developed a three-part treatment including of knock-down foggers, growth regulators and Diatomaceous Earth, and we offer a full programme of advice and recommendations to our customers to help protect them from repeated infestations.

Fleas are often considered little more than a nuisance, and as such people often don’t opt for a professional removal programme until an infestation is already very thoroughly established. In small-scale cases, store-bought products and general cleanliness will be enough, but some infestations are too severe to be removed without expert help.

Fleas’ ability to carry diseases is often underestimated, as is their ability to act as a host for tapeworm, and it is often more sanitary to depend on our Flea Control technicians when facing a serious problem, since normal anti-flea measures can only achieve long term effects when they work in tandem with a professional flea removal programme that targets the sources of infestation.

Silverfish are a prevalent pest throughout homes in Enfield, yet often go unnoticed, since people are unfamiliar with them, given their tendency to hide in small cracks and come out only at night. Most people only recognise their presence when they find holes in wallpaper, clothes and books – some of silverfishes’ favourite food items – and it is often best to use our consultation service if you begin to suspect that wear and tear on certain items may be caused by them.

Silverfish infestations are usually connected to larger issues with damp and moisture levels inside a house, and so in addition to a thorough extermination programme, our technicians can alert you to problems that you otherwise may not have noticed.

Many customers find cockroaches extremely unpleasant to live with, but in addition to their repellent appearance they also pose some very real dangers. The insects carry a number of diseases, and their attraction to unprotected human foodstuffs means those diseases will very often spread, as they leave eggs and droppings in what they have touched. It is often fruitless to go after cockroaches one-by-one using traps or other methods, and it is hard to realise how resilient they are without first-hand experience.

Our technicians favour the most immediate, aggressive options when dealing with cockroaches, using highly-localised, concentrated chemicals to strike at infestations at their source, going after cockroaches in the cracks and crevices they favour most.

At Enfield Spider Control, we realise we have a responsibility not only to deal with the spiders themselves, but also to deal with people’s worries and misunderstandings about spiders as well. Warnings of poisonous spiders in the UK have many people worried, and we are receiving more calls than ever asking us whether they may be at risk.

Our consultation service exists to give people the facts and help them to figure out what is true about poisonous spiders and what is just the result of media exaggeration. When the time comes to make a decision about dealing with a spider infestation, whether it is dangerous or merely irritating, our technicians will always provide reassurance and an undisruptive, thorough extermination treatment.

An ant infestation can seem minor at first, but once established, ants can swarm over kitchen surfaces in search of food, or even get caught in telephone and power-sockets, disrupting services.. The three most common species we deal with, Ghost, Pharaoh and Feral ants, specifically build their nests in human homes, especially in places that are hard to reach, and as such the potential for irritation is that much higher.

We are familiar with many species of ants, and while an untrained individual can have trouble locating a nest, let alone applying pesticide to it, our technicians have the necessary expertise to track down the most concentrated points of ant activity and rapidly exterminate them.
