WELCOME TO THE PEST IDENTIFICATION CENTRE 

 

  Challenge Services has designed this page for your pest identification purposes, it's essential to know what 

  type of pest(s) you have found before any treatment(s) can be carried out. Failure to identify a pest correctly

  will most certainly increase the risk of the treatment being unsuccessful and can be expensive to remedy.
