Did you know? Rats reproduce six litters a year of 5-10 pups and a population can swell from two rats to around 1,250 in one year. Use #Selontra for your rodenticide bait needs to control the spread of rats within as few as 7 days

Around 500 bees will surround the invader, trapping them in a bee ball, and start vibrating their muscles. This creates heat, raising the temperature to over 115 degrees. One hour later, the hornet will be dead. #Wednesdaywisdom

Morning all, it's #WorldBeeDay. We have over 250 species of wild bee in the UK, lots of wonderful pollinators, without which we would not enjoy flowers, or crops of fruit and veg. We love the bees. 🐝 😍

This month we are taking a closer look at a sweet friend, the honeybee. In the summer months, bees will live for as little as six weeks. However, in the winter bees can live for six months and will survive from autumn through to the following spring. #FriendOfTheMonth #Honeybees
