Other type of pests and control
- Honeybee swarm
If you have a honeybee swarm, you can contact a beekeeper who can try and collect it. Children and pets should be kept at a safe distance from swarms. - Oak Processionary Moth
The oak processionary moth is a pest that has been identified within the borough. It lives on oak trees and poses a risk to human and animal health. Each year, the council employs specialists to treat oak trees to prevent the caterpillars from developing into a hazardous state, and to survey and remove nests.
For all other types of pest, the British Pest Control Association website has further useful information for residents and details of licenced companies that you can contact if you have a pest problem that the council does not treat.
