Honey bee swarms occur in both towns and the Newport countryside when bees are looking for a home new due to overcrowding, lack of food or water or persistent disturbance by humans or animals. Bee swarms do not always require bee removal and are not aggressive. However, bee swarms can be a health risk to those with allergies.

Gnawing squirrels risk damage to your Newport property, become aggressive if you try to remove them and require professional squirrel pest control. Squirrel pest control professionals can provide the best advice for discouraging squirrels from your Newport home or business, but their are few things you can consider. Reduce access, such as trimming back any tree branches that hang near your Newport property and moving other forms of bridges such as washing lines or cables if possible. Seal or fill any gaps into your Newport property, since squirrels are able to fit through holes as small as just 2 inches wide.

You can also deter them and prevent the need for squirrel pest control by replacing accessible food around your Newport property such as bird seeds with squirrel proof bird feeders, or even devices such as motion-activated lights, noise or ultrasonic sound. Bear in mind that these methods could affect your pets, so we'd recommend discussing your options with squirrel pest control professionals in this instance.

Flea Pest Control in Newport, Essex

Once fleas have taken hold of your pets and household soft furnishings, it’s very difficult to get rid of them and their eggs without specialist flea pest control treatment since they're able to live for months in Newport properties without food. Even though a Newport home or business that isn’t cleaned or vacuumed might be more likely to provide a better environment for fleas to thrive, it can be a common misconception that fleas are associated with dirty environments. Clean environments can also require professional flea pest control in Newport as they'll search for a warm-blooded host anywhere. 

Although, they don't necessarily pose a direct health risk, flea bites can cause intense itching and to both humans and pets, skin complaints, discomfort, allergic reactions, can give your cat or dog tapeworms and other diseases and in rare cases cause anemia in your pets. One of the first signs that you need flea pest control could be that pets are constantly licking, scratching or biting themselves or spotting flea droppings in their coat. Bites on members of your household, usually around legs and ankles, on your arms and spotting them jumping on soft furnishings will also be a sign of needing flea pest control in Newport. 

A female flea can produce more than 25 eggs a day once on a host, these eggs can develop into an adult flea in only 14 days, allowing them to spread quickly and the need for professional flea pest control in Newport more likely. In the UK, fleas are more common during summer time as their optimum temperatures are between 21-29⁰C. However, prevention is better than cure, treat your pets for fleas regularly and only give your pet treatments that have been recommended for them by your vet in Newport.

Rabbit Pest Control in Newport, Essex

On both domestic and agricultural Newport land, rabbits can cause damage to erosion-prone soil, compete with native fauna for food and habitat and livestock for pasture, as well as decimate acres of crops such as maize, barley and wheat due to their substantial breeding rate. As part of Section One of the Pests Act 1954, every Newport land owner is responsible for controlling wild rabbits on their land either by themselves, by hiring rabbit pest control professionals or have an ongoing obligation for taking steps to prevent rabbits from causing damage to nearby crops by putting up fencing for example. Some wildlife habitats and species can depend on rabbit grazing, so wildlife interests should also be considered when deciding on the type of fencing used in order to carry out rabbit pest control in Newport.

Other ways to prevent the need for rabbit pest control include making your land or garden in Newport less inviting, managing areas that provide cover from predators such as tall grasses, low-growing shrubs, in brush piles as well as blocking access points under sheds and porches. On your land in Newport, collars around the trunk of young trees to can also help prevent damage from rabbits as does adding a fence around any vegetable gardens. Other options include the use of scare tactics to prevent rabbits coming onto your Newport land and the eventual need for rabbit pest control, including scarecrows, owls and snakes, aluminium pie pans as well as ultrasonic devices - although these tactics and their effectiveness as a rabbit pest control prevention will wear off at some point as rabbits get used to them.

Cockroaches look for food and water, moving from drains and sewers into Newport homes and buildings where they contaminate anything they come into contact with including food, utensils, and preparation surfaces, leaving faeces along the way and can cause food poisoning posing a direct health risk to humans. Even though all Newport businesses are in danger from cockroaches, companies that are highly regulated and handle food and drink might face an increased risk from exposure to cockroaches. Newport businesses found to have a cockroach pest control problem could also face fines, with repeat issues at risk of facing legal action. Environmental Health Officers can issue enforcement notices to company owners for businesses in Newport that don't have sufficient cockroach pest control management procedures in place.

Cockroaches will be usually be found in inaccessible, dark and sheltered spaces, close to water and food, they cannot survive for more than a few days without water but can survive for several months without food and feed on almost anything, including faecal matter, rubbish and even other cockroaches particularly in kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms of Newport properties. Cockroaches are nocturnal so it's unlikely you'll see them during the day, however, other signs of their presence include droppings, egg cases, shed skins, damage to food and packaging and an unpleasant smell in your Newport property.

Infestations will usually require professional cockroach pest control because they are hard-wired to survive since they're adaptable, highly mobile, breed quickly and can become resistant to pesticides making cockroach pest control a difficult task for an untrained property owner in Newport.

Although often portrayed as cute and cuddly animals, the common mole can severely damage property in Newport by burrowing under the surface of lawns and paths etc. Evidence of a mole infestation includes fresh mounds of soil - mole hills, raised ridges around holes in the earth, uneven ground, disturbed plants, crops, roots and grassy areas of Newport land, all of which can point to the need for professional mole pest control. Even though they can aerate the soil, which can be good for growing plants and grass, mole pest control may be required for your garden as they can cause damage to mowing machines because of the stones brought to the surface. As well as the nuisance of mole hills, the ground becomes unstable with larger numbers, holes may appear and potentially damage the foundations of your Newport property.

Flies feed by vomiting saliva onto food found by flies in your Newport home, stamping their legs up and down in it and then sucking up the resulting liquid - the bacteria from its gut can then be transmitted to humans causing everything from food poisoning to cholera.

To avoid the need for professional pest control for flies, you can use natural fly repellent, homemade fly traps to kill them off before they start reproducing as well as plants such as mint, basil, rosemary, marigold and catnip in your Newport garden.
