Flying insects

wasps

The "wasp" is a yellow and black hymenopteran insect carrying a sting. It proliferates in our regions from April onwards, most of them living in colonies, in nests.

Nuisances:

Wasps are known to be unwelcome, their stings are painful but are often benign. However, the SUVA records, each year, 3,000 bites that lead to accidents. In addition, they can cause damage to buildings, especially to the external insulation since they hollow it out, sometimes to set up their nests.

Solutions:

Most products on the market are not effective enough to reach and destroy the heart of the nest completely. We have the material, equipment and skills to get rid of wasp nests safely and permanently.

common and asian hornets

The "hornet", like the wasp is a yellow and black hymenopteran insect carrying a sting. There are several species of hornets, both native or invasive, such as the Asian hornet. It lives in a colony in a nest.

Nuisances:

Hornets are feared for their stings which are particularly painful. A single bite can kill an allergic person. Usually peaceful, the hornet becomes very aggressive when it is disturbed.

Solutions:

We strongly advise against trying to get rid of a hornet nest yourself. Specific equipment and special skills are required to handle a nest safely.

BEes

The "bee", like the wasp and the hornet, is a hymenopteran insect, yellow and black but hairy. It lives domesticated in a beehive or in the wild. It can also be installed in our gardens or around our buildings.

Nuisances:

Beneficial rather than harmful, bees are essential to our ecosystem, they are protected by a federal law on the protection of animals. However, they can settle in the wrong place and create a risk of stings.

Solutions:

We recommend that you approach a beekeeper or wildlife services in order to relocate the colony.

mosquitoes

The "mosquito" is a small insect called a diptera. It is very present on the Geneva Lake basin and in particular in wetlands because it develops in stagnant water.

Nuisances:

The mosquito is the deadliest animal in the world. It kills between 750,000 and 1,000,000 people each year because it is the vector of many diseases such as malaria and yellow fever. However, in our regions it mainly disturbs our sleep during the summer periods.

Solutions:

We offer the installation of mosquito nets for all your doors and windows.

FLIES

The "fly", like the mosquito, is a small dipterous insect. There is a multitude of species of flies, they all need a specific environment to develop. It is necessary to identify them precisely in order to determine the cause of their presence.

Nuisances:

The fly is a messy insect and vector of disease, it can easily contaminate your food. It causes disturbances and disruption of sleep.

Solutions:

As for the mosquito, we offer the installation of mosquito nets for all your doors and windows. An investigation is often necessary to determine the cause of their presence. Depending on the result, we can carry out targeted biocidal treatments.

mOTHS

The "Moths" are small lepidopteran insects. They are actually little butterflies. The different species have in common their nuisance for human activity.

Nuisances:

The nuisance is mainly caused by the food moth and the common clothing moth. The large distribution network is primarily responsible for the presence of moths in homes. Once at home, they will attack most of your grain stores. As for the common clothing moth, it feeds on the keratin contained in textiles of animal origin (wool, fur, carpets, leather, work of art).

Solutions:

Getting rid of these insects is investigative work. It is essential to precisely determine the causes of infestation and then to eliminate them in an appropriate manner.
