Small rodent with grey/brown fur usually less than 90mm in total length and weighing less than 20 grams. Colour is generally uniform with the belly being slightly lighter and the tail typically about 75% of the length of the body.
Although now a familiar sight across much of the UK, the grey squirrel is non-native, having been first introduced from America in the late nineteenth century. It is largely blamed for the decline in populations of our native red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) although in truth, this also has as much to do with the disappearance of the red squirrel’s natural woodland habitat, as it does with competition. The introduced species is larger than the red squirrel, with largely grey/brown fur, and a white belly.
The rabbit was thought to have been introduced to Britain by the Normans, although early remains show that some may date back to Roman times. The rabbit is now found across almost all of Western Europe. Each individual can grow up to 40cm in length. Rabbits are distinguished from the hare by size (the hare is bigger), and the rabbit has a white tail when running, smaller hind legs and lacks the characteristic black tips found on the hare’s ears.
Moles are a common British mammal living almost exclusively underground, although they are capable of moving above ground and even swimming. As well as a means of transportation, the main purpose of the tunnel network is a trap for worms and other invertebrates to fall into. The mole rarely exceeds 20cm in length, including a short tail and has a very smooth dark fur which can flex in both directions. With very poor eye-sight, the mole navigates and finds food largely by picking up vibrations.
Honey bees consist of the Queen, the only reproductive female, the drone, which is the male and the worker bee, female non-reproductive bees.A Queen Bee has a larger abdomen and longer body than a worker bee. She has a smooth, curved stinger than she can use time and time again. A worker bee has a straight, barbed stinger that remains embedded in the flesh of its victim, once stung, and the bee consequently dies. Drone bees have no sting.
At about 9mm lang, the cluster fly is slightly larger than the common house fly. The thorax is dark olive grey, with fine golden hairs which can easily be rubbed off. There are no distinct lines or stripes behind the head and the abdomen has irregular light and dark grey areas.
Typical worker ants are 3-4mm long of a brown/black colour with elbowed antennae and biting mouthparts. The queen tends to be much larger at about 10mm.
Birds of all species are normally welcome in non-agricultural environments, as they are elsewhere. However, there are occasions when they cause problems.The accumulations of bird droppings can, for example, pose a risk to public safety and health, hygiene standards may be compromised in food premises, and paths and walkways may become slippery and unsafe. Birds may also sometimes act as a reservoir for disease. In deciding on the measures to take in response to such problems, it is important that all legal and practical implications are considered.
Bed bug adults are reddish-brown, oval, flattened insects from 4 to 5 mm long and 1.5 to 3mm wide before feeding. Engorged adults tend to be swollen and dull red. The eggs are white, oval, about 1mm long and covered in a sticky film which allows them to adhere to surfaces. A newly hatched nymph is almost colourless whereas engorged nymphs are reddish and swollen.
Adult fleas are 2-3mm in length and generally of a shiny brown appearance. They have a thin, laterally flattened body and large hind legs which allow them to jump onto passing hosts.
Usually dark reddish brown in colour, the adults are about 25mm long and the immature cockroaches, called nymphs resemble adults, except that they are wingless.
