These ants generally live outside under patios, in lawns and trees, but sometimes, usually whist foraging for food ants enter into schools, kitchens, buildings and often into our homes; accessing our property through doorways, windows or even cracks in the walls. Occasionally, an ant nest can inadvertently find its way into the brickwork of a building, specifically around fireplaces where the 'worker' ants forage for food inside the property. In late July, as the humidity rises, black ants undergo change; newly designated queens and chosen males develop wings transforming into 'flying ants'.
Wasps are also attracted to light, so it is quite common for wasps to be attracted to a light source, within 500 meters of their nest, especially at dusk, when it is starting to get dark. Unfortunately unless a wasp nest is located, i.e. the wasps are continuously going in and out of a hole, either in the wall, under tiles/floor boards, or in the ground, there is very little we can do to resolve the problem. Wasps tend to make their nests in garden sheds, roofs, loft spaces (accessible from the outside) and chimmys.

There are over 3,000 varieties of cockroaches worldwide, thankfully there are only 3 known cockroaches in the UK, these are the German Cockroach, the Oriental Cockroach and the American Cockroach. Cockroaches are a high risk pest to have in homes, schools and kitchens which is why DRE Pest Control in Cambridge provide effective pest management solutions for homeowners, businesses, restaurants, hotels and pubs to reduce the risk of diseases spread by cockroach infestations. If you suspect a cockroach infestation in your home or business and want to get rid of cockroaches and other insects, contact DRE Pest Control in Cambridge.
Ants are more nuisance pests rather than disease carriers, but it is impossible to know where they last fed so that you can determine what's attracting the ants into your home and kitchen. There are 250 different types of bee in England, of those 25% are on the endangered species list. Cluster flies are individual nuisance pests particularly in the autumn and spring when they arrive or leave their winter roost. Fleas are a constant worry for pet owners. However much is spent on flea treatments, the pest always seems to appear.
