🐝 This impressive nest was discovered tucked away in a loft space, where the colony had been able to grow undisturbed...

➡️ Wasp nests often begin very small in spring but can expand rapidly throughout the summer, sometimes containing thousands of wasps by the time they are noticed.

Common signs include:

• Regular wasp activity around roof tiles, vents or gaps
• Wasps repeatedly entering and leaving the same point
• Scratching or buzzing sounds inside walls or ceilings
• Increased numbers appearing inside the property

🐝 Treat a nest as soon as you discover it, before the problem gets too big 🐝

⚠️ Never attempt to disturb or remove an active nest yourself, especially one of this size! Wasps can become highly defensive when their nest is threatened.

❗️ If you have noticed wasp activity around your home or business, Rat King Pest Control can safely assess the situation and treat (with free re-treatment included if the nest remains active after 7-10 days!)

🪰 The customer called us for a fly treatment… but the flies weren’t the real problem! 🐁

🔎 On arrival, we carried out a full survey before reaching for any insecticide.

🐁 The investigation led us to a dead rodent inside a wall cavity, along with the entry point it had used to get in!

Instead of simply treating the visible flies and hoping for the best, we:

🔎 Identified the true source
🧤 Removed the dead rodent
🛠️ Proofed the access point
🌿 Avoided unnecessary chemical treatment

Problem solved at the source, with steps taken to help prevent it happening again 🙌

This is exactly why surveys and Integrated Pest Management are so important. Treating what you can see may provide temporary relief, but finding out why it is happening is what creates an effective, lasting solution.

Professional pest control should never be about using chemicals automatically. It should be about investigation, prevention and choosing the safest, most appropriate treatment for the situation.

🧳 Travelling This Summer? Don’t Bring Bed Bugs Home! 🛏️

⚠️ With the summer holidays approaching and more families heading away, bed bugs are more likely to hitch a lift in luggage, clothing and personal belongings.

➡️ Bed bugs are not linked to poor hygiene and can be found anywhere people stay, including hotels, holiday parks, hostels and holiday rentals.

🔎 When you arrive, carry out a quick check:

✅️Keep luggage off the bed and soft furnishings while you inspect the room
✅️ Check mattress seams, labels and piping, particularly around the head of the bed
✅️ Look behind the headboard and around the bed frame
✅️ Check nearby bedside furniture and upholstered chairs
✅️ Watch for live insects, pale shed skins, tiny white eggs, dark spotting or small blood marks on bedding

⚠️ Think you’ve found signs of bed bugs?

➡️ Avoid unpacking your belongings or moving them around the room. Take clear photographs, notify the accommodation provider immediately and request a different room well away from the affected area, not directly next door, above or below it.

🏠 Before bringing your luggage back inside your home:

✅️ Inspect suitcases and bags carefully, paying close attention to seams, pockets and zips
✅️ Unpack away from bedrooms and soft furnishings where possible
✅️ Place washable clothing directly into sealed bags before taking it to the washing machine
✅️ Wash and tumbledry items using the hottest settings permitted by the care label
✅️ Vacuum luggage thoroughly and immediately empty the vacuum contents into a sealed outdoor bin
✅️ Store suitcases away from bedrooms once checked and cleaned

Bed bugs can be extremely difficult to eradicate without the correct knowledge, equipment and treatment plan. We do not recommend attempting to treat an infestation using shop bought sprays, smoke bombs or other home insecticide products. These can scatter the bed bugs into other areas, interfere with professional treatments and expose occupants and pets to unnecessary insecticides.

➡️ If you discover or suspect bed bugs at home, please contact a qualified pest professional for advice. Early identification and a carefully planned treatment programme provide the best chance of safe and effective eradication 🙏

🐝 Wasp call-outs are increasing by the day! 🐝

☀️ As the warmer weather continues, we’re seeing more and more active wasp nests being reported. Wasps can become aggressive when they feel their nest is threatened, so it’s important to stay vigilant and avoid disturbing any suspected nesting areas.

⚠️ Signs to look out for:
➡️Wasps repeatedly flying in and out of the same spot
➡️ Activity around rooflines, sheds, air bricks, bushes or loft spaces
➡️ Increased wasp numbers around your garden or home

❗️If you suspect a nest, it’s always best to deal with it early. A small problem can quickly become a much bigger one as the nest grows and activity increases.

🐀 👑 At Rat King Pest Control, we offer professional wasp nest treatments within Eastbourne and the surrounding areas for just:
🔥 £79 + FREE re-treatment if the nest is still active after 10 days 🔥

✅️ BPCA Member
✅️ TrustMark Registered
✅️ CRRU Supporter
✅️ Carer's Card Accepted
✅️ Safe, Professional Service

Rub-a-dub-dub… there’s a rat in the tub 🐀🛁

🎉📷 Picture of the month! 📷🎉

This picture of an unexpected bath guest was sent to us by a client after appearing in their bathtub...

⚠️ Our survey showed it had gained access via the drainage system, travelled into the loft space, and then dropped into the bath!

➡️ A full Rodent Eradication Programme has been put in place, and multiple drain valves are on order ready for installation by the end of the week.
It’s a good reminder that rodents do not always come in through obvious gaps. Sometimes the issue starts below ground, through the drains.

❗️If you suspect rodent activity, getting the entry points identified is just as important as dealing with the rodents themselves❗️

A little behind the scenes of what goes into preparing new site contracts 🐀👑

Before we even arrive on site, we spend time getting everything ready so the set up runs smoothly for our clients.

This weekend, we’ve been busy:

📍 Labelling monitoring boxes
🔗 Tethering boxes ready to meet auditing standards
📁 Preparing site master files
📝 Putting together compliance paperwork
🗺️ Setting up visit logs, bait maps and service records

➡️ Doing this ahead of time means less disruption on site, more time to involve our clients in the set up process and a clear, organised system from day one.

✅️ For commercial sites, especially those working to auditing requirements, good pest control is about much more than just putting boxes down. It’s about traceability, documentation, prevention and working together to keep the site protected.
