Control of Booklice (Psocids)

Booklice-kirt

Norfolk & Norwich Pest Control can effectively control Booklice. We provide inspection methods to investigate where Booklice are living and breeding. Problems we have uncounted are Booklice feeding from moulds from new kitchens within homes, older properties and damp storage warehouses. Although not a major pest they can build up to large numbers and spread across a home or industrial unit.
