What pests might you encounter this Easter?

The Christian holiday is celebrated every year and commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Easter is also a sign of better weather to come. The clocks have gone forward meaning lighter nights and with the recent sunshine and weather warming up, unfortunately pests are also starting to come out of hiding.

So, what pests might you encounter this Easter?

Wasps, Bees, Hornets are all out and about looking for a place to build their nests.

Early wasp signs are the Queen wasps emerging from hibernation ready to start their nest building.

Bees buzzing around starting to pollinate. Speaking of Bees remember the PGM & Son Pest Control mantra #LeaveThemBee

Bees are a vital part of our ever fragile eco system and it’s critical that we ensure their survival so leave them bee unless there is a clear and present danger to public health.

Ants – as the earth starts to warm up so do the ants!

It’s also the time of year to start seeing flying ants. Ants are attracted to sugary foods and with all the Easter Egg hunts planned across the country there’s plenty of the sweet stuff hiding outside for them. Learn more about our Ant Control Service.

Bed bugs - with schools out for Easter, many families will be starting out on a long Easter break away.

The pest you are most likely to experience on your travels is the hardy bedbug. Bedbugs are notorious hitch hikers and will travel from room to room and country to country so keep your eyes peeled. Learn more about our bed bug control service.
