Feral pigeons have now become a very major problem in Christchurch since the earthquakes with a lot of vacant and damaged buildings giving them perfect homes to live and multiply in. Unfortunately a lot of our new buildings are being built with ledges and louvres which is also adding to the problems. There are a lot of options open to the Pest Control industry and a lot of them dont work because the wrong system is installed.
House borers are only 3–4 millimetres long and were introduced from Europe. People with old wooden houses and furniture know them all too well. Female beetles lay eggs in cracks, crevices, end-grain timbers, or old borer holes. The larvae hatch and eat the timber for two to three years, making unsightly holes and tunnels. Adults bore exit holes in the wood in summer, and fly away. Little piles of dust near holes indicate an infestation. Borer can be killed by spraying insecticide into the holes.
