If you have found a pest and don't know what it is, or how to treat it, we may be able to identify this for you and provide you with advice on treatment options.

Ticks and Lyme disease
The native UK tick tends to live in places with damp vegetation and lots of small animals and birds they can feed on.
Ticks can be found in woodland, moors and even parks and gardens all over the UK. Some imported tickets from Europe can survive in houses.
