Wasps are probably the most familiar and generally disliked of all British insects there bodies bear the characteristic black and yellow bands and have a narrow waist. In the body they vary in size from the worker which is 10 - 15mm in length to the queen which is 20mm long and they have two pairs of wings which lock together. The needle like sting is possessed only by the females and is concealed near the tip of the abdomen.
The main type of mouse in Britain which can become pests are the Common House Mouse the adult House Mouse may weigh up to 50 grams usually has brown fur or it is black and is Grey underneath it's ears are fairly large in relation to it's body and it's feet are small. The tail is the same length as the Head and Body but is much thinner than the tail of a young rat.
Flies are considered to be one of the most evolved insects known to man they rely heavily on sight for survival and are generally sensitive to movement most fly species are more of a nuisance than a pest. However flies such as mosquitoes which feed on blood can also cause painful skin reactions when they bite and can also transmit infectious diseases.
Cockroaches are insects which range in size from 10-23mm in length they have long whip like antennae and two pairs of wings the two species most commonly found are the Oriental and the German and they can be distinguished by there size and colour the Oriental cockroach being large and darker brown in colour the Oriental cockroach unlike the German variety is unable to climb smooth vertical surfaces.

The common Bedbug feeds on blood from people and normally emerges at night from cracks in furniture joints, bed frames, wallpaper and skirting boards. The main host of the Bedbug is people although other warm bodied animals such as domestic pets can be parasitized. Bedbugs leave a characteristic almond or mint like smell in rooms where they are active. Bites can be painful and cause a hard whitish swelling.
The adult flea is 2.7mm long and brownish in colour their bodies are compressed from side to side enabling them to move quickly through hairs and they have relatively large hind limbs which are used for jumping the three most common species cat flea dog and human. Cat fleas are by far the most common accounting for 75% of flea infestations.
Common clothes moths attack natural fibres. The adults rarely fly to lights as you would normally associate with moth species. Any flying Clothes Moths are usually male as females tend to just hop around on the floor in dark and uninterrupted locations in search of breeding sites. The period of egg larvae pupa and adult emerging can take about six weeks in favourable conditions.
