Treatment Of Textile Insect Pests
Once you know the signs to look for, it can be fairly simple to spot evidence of a textile pest infestation.
- Fleas – are very distressing and can be extremely difficult to get rid of without using professional insect pest control treatment there are over 120,000 species of flies worldwide. They are considered pests because they pose a health risk to humans, pets and livestock. Flies can infest your home or business and spread diseases like salmonella and E.coli. A few species may even bite humans and animals.
- Moths – the majority of moths in the UK are harmless, however a few are seen as pest due to the damage their larvae cause to materials, textiles and stored products. Unlike other pest, moths pose you no health risks. Once inside your home or business, moths can severely damage natural fibres in carpets, clothes, fabrics, and even leather. Moth caterpillars cause the damage by eating the protein (keratin) found in natural materials like wool, cotton and silk. Our targeted chemical treatments are also extremely effective, depending on your situation
- Bed bugs – if you have been unfortunate enough to experience bed bugs in your home, the only thing on your mind will be getting rid of them as quickly as possible. Bed bugs stay close to a food source, so are found where people tend to rest and sleep, hence the name bed bug. The frustration they can cause is not only due to the stress of dealing with parasites, but also the irritation of their bites and the potential for secondary infection from constant scratching.
