Highland Pest Control in February 2025

Highland Pest Control provides competitive and qualified Pest Control to  Inverness and the surrounding areas

The colder months are generally quieter for Pest Control Companies but there are always customers with immediate issues, and they are varied. This is a list of some of the work carried out in February.

Cockroaches

This is not a pest that is very common in the North of Scotland but it is here and I dealt with an infestation in a domestic flat in the City they are generally brought into a property in white goods or sometime food goods, if allowed to get established a Cockroach infestation can quickly become out of Control, I used Cockroach Gel and Monitor traps as well as final Insecticidal spray

Cluster Flies

These are quite common in the UK and because they live for a couple of years, we have a problem with them hibernating in homes in the Autumn and coming out of Hibernation in the Spring. They are generally found in Skylights and window frames on the sunny side of the house with rooms closer to the roof. The window frames need to ne treated with insecticide and sometimes we need to fog the loft area where they inhabit.

Bedbug

Bedbugs can be found all year around and are usually brought back from holidays ,they are a difficult pest to remove and can make a home uninhabitable, the removal of some furniture and a mixture of steam and Insecticide and other chemicals is the best solution

Rodents

Rats and Mice are still a common problem in the area the cold weather tends to be a reason for rodents to invade homes, a mixture of Traps and Rodenticide with some recommendations in relation to structural issues is the solution.

Bird Spikes

Placing bird spikes on properties to deny birds nesting over doors and windows before the springtime brings the breeding birds.
