Good evening, how is everyone?

Today, we treated this lovely looking wasp nest.

In the first picture, you can see how well it is camouflaged.

Unfortunately for the customer, they did not see it until too late cutting their hedge.

Got a wasp nest causing you a nuisance?

Cover someone in jam and let the wasps chase them around!

Only joking! Give us a call, and we can get this sorted for you.

Did you know that today is National Rat Catcher's Day?

Celebrating the ‘Pied Piper of Hamelin’ who rid a German town of all its rats just by playing his flute…or so they claimed.

Modern-day exterminators are a bit less musical, but probably just as effective so today, let’s celebrate them too!

Good morning, how is everyone?

Yesterday we needed some tyres for the van.

We popped into TyreFinders Penzance and they were able to fit us in straight away.

Thanks for the quick service and keeping us on the road.

Good evening, how is everyone?

Today, we carried out a bee removal at Hayle Rugby Club.

These bees have been in place for about 4 weeks.

Using the bee hoover, we were able to remove the bees.

You can see from the pictures and colour of the comb that they have been in there for a short time.

These bees will now be transferred to quarantine apiary to check for disease before being transferred to the main apiary.

Good evening, how is everyone?

We hope you are enjoying this beautiful weather we have got at the moment.

Today, we got a call for bees that had swarmed onto the Nao Victoria moored in Penzance.

Steve attended and collected them. These bees will now be removed and live a quiet life in the country.

Good morning, how is everyone?

Yesterday, we followed up a job where there were multiple ways the rats could be entering the premises.

Tracking gel was placed down for us to track the rats.
Yesterday, using a UV torch, we were able to confirm where the rats were entering the premises.

This allows us to tweak our treatment to get the best results for the job, using the tools of the trade.

Also, just a quick reminder we will be unavailable Monday and back to work on Tuesday.

Good evening, how was everyone's day?

Today, we took on a big bed bug job!

This infestation has been going on for a while, as you can see from the pictures.

Try not to itch looking at them!

Hopefully, with the first treatment carried out, we will get a good knockdown, we will find out more next week when we return.

Good morning, how is everyone?

​We’ve been busy lately with an influx of calls about rats showing up in gardens across the area. When we speak to customers, more often than not, there’s a bird feeder tucked away nearby.

​Now, we all love seeing the birds, but those dropped seeds are providing crib for the local rodents. If you want them to hop it, here is our best advice:

​Take the feeders down for two weeks.
If the buffet closes, most rats will pack their bags and find somewhere else to be.

​Don't waste your pennies.
If they’re still hanging around after a fortnight, they’ll be much hungrier and more curious, making our job a lot easier and more effective.

​Get bang for your buck.
We want to make sure you aren't paying for wasted visits. Clearing the food first means we can get the job done properly the first time!

If you have an ongoing issue please don't hesitate to get in touch.
