Understanding Drugstore Beetles for Control

Drugstore beetles are small pests that feed on a wide variety of dried goods including flour, spices, and pet food. They reproduce quickly and can survive long periods without food, making early detection and professional treatment crucial.

Why Drugstore Beetle Infestations Require Expert Control

Understanding Drugstore Beetle Behavior:

Food contaminators – Infest dry stored foods and packaging
Hiding experts – Can live inside walls, cracks, and cupboards
Rapid breeders – Several generations per year, quick population growth
Resilient – Difficult to eradicate without professional treatments

Our Professional Solution:

Our BPCA-certified team provides thorough inspections and treatments to:

🔍 Locate all infestation sources including hidden sites
🛡️ Apply food-safe insecticides effective against larvae and adults
⚗️ Provide storage advice to prevent reinfestation
✂️ Conduct follow-up visits for ongoing protection

Your ideal pest control provider for Drugstore Beetle Wakefield.

Don't just take our word for it...

"We had a serious rat issue in our loft and didn’t know where to turn. I saw 'The Yorkshire Rat Catcher' in the local paper and decided to give him a ring. Within 24 hours, he’d sorted the problem. Genuine, professional, and knows his stuff."

Mark, Wakefield

Pest Control for Rats

"Top-class service! We had mice in the kitchen and within a day of calling, they were dealt with and we’ve had no issues since. The technician explained everything clearly and followed up a week later to make sure all was sorted. Real peace of mind."

Claire, Pudsey

Pest Control for Mice

"After seeing the guy dubbed The Yorkshire Rat Catcher in the paper last year, I saved his number just in case. When our warehouse had a rodent outbreak, he was the first person I called. No-nonsense, efficient, and left us totally pest-free."

Andy, Morley

Pest Control for Rats

"Brilliant from start to finish. We had a wasp nest right above our front door, and they were out the same day. Super friendly, clean job, and they even advised us on how to prevent it next year. Highly recommend these guys from Wakefield but cover many areas they said! Check them out"

Danielle, Castleford

Pest Control for Wasp Nests

"We’d tried two other pest companies who didn’t manage to stop the issue. One call to this team and it was sorted in under a week. They really live up to the hype — professional, punctual, and thorough. We have rubbish and food waste from the local takeaway and Kieran's team came and sorted the rats."

Trevor, Huddersfield

Pest Control for Rats

"Friendly, reliable and extremely knowledgeable. We had issues with rats in the back garden, we are right next to a farm. You can tell this isn’t just a job for them — they actually care. Thanks again to the whole team! Will be sharing your business with many! Best pest control in Garforth!"
