Cockroaches -
There are two main pest species of cockroach in the UK. These are The Oriental Cockroach (Blatta orientalis) and The German Cockroach (Blattella germanica).
The Oriental Cockroach is a serious pest in heated buildings such as hotels, laundries and large blocks of flats. It carries pathogens and can foul and taint food.
The German cockroach is a mostly nocturnal pest and is found in warm, humid conditions. It too carries diseases and can spoil food.
Bed Bugs are becoming a very large scale problem within the UK infesting homes and businesses alike. These pests are not really choosy where they live or whom they feed from, but do require regular blood feeds that can cause dramatic skin reactions in their victims.
Whether it be a cat flea, dog flea or pigeon flea they all act in the same way and cause a major problem in the homes and businesses they infest. Their ability to live without a blood feed for up to one year allows them to hide away in vacant properties or homes alike until a warm blooded mammal enters the room. Many vacant premises are infested with these pests and require treating before inhabited by any warm blooded mammal.
