I can kill any insects on my property, can’t I?

This is a complex area and is governed by a wide range of legislation including the Food and Environment Protection Act 1985 Part 3 [FEPA], the Control of Pesticide Regulations 1986 [COPR], the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations [COSHH], amongst others. If you’re unsure seek advice from a reputable pest control company like All Pest Services. Certain species such as honey bees, while not specifically protected, are becoming increasingly endangered and should not be destroyed apart from in extreme situations. In many cases a bee keeper will be able to remove them without causing any harm if it is absolutely necessary. Specific measures must be followed if control measures are required – please seek advice before you act!
