Who we are
Acorn started out as a small family-run business which was formed in 1990. At first, Acorn only specialised in Pest Control. However, due to the Chairman’s drive and expertise, Acorn expanded its service offering cleaning and clearances, part of their daily routine. In October 2021 Acorn expanded into the water hygiene sector and has qualified operatives with over 25 years of experience in the industry.
Acorn has become a successful environmental service company; offering a great range of services to cover all areas, both internal and external for all types of industries, commercial, public and private clients within the North West and beyond, Acorn has more than 200 clients and employs 40 specialist staff members in their field.
Acorn is a family-orientated environmental service company who are happy to assist with any problem. Its target to make a difference to the environment drives its vision to REACT, COMMUNICATE and DELIVER the best service possible to its growing client portfolio.
Choose Acorn’s Professional Fly Exterminators
Flies are one of the most likely causes of reputational damage to a business. There are 120,000 species worldwide that pose a health risk to humans, pets, livestock, and goods. Flies can carry diseases such as Salmonella and E. coli — and a small fly problem can very quickly become an infestation. Such health risks can impact your customers, staff, productivity and cause reputational damage to your trade.
Take control of your fly problem
At Acorn, we employ several methods of eradicating infestations depending on species.
Usually the most effective treatment consists of a fogging treatment or fumigation.
We also use smoke treatments. Other methods include spray and powder chemical applications.
The Acorn team are highly qualified and accredited with company accreditations including SafeContractor, CHAS, Construction Line, NPTA and SSIP.
The majority of staff members also hold CSCS Cards, Atlas Citation Training certification and all works follow a site-specific risk and method statement (RAMS).
All chemicals used by Acorn Environment Services staff are COSHH risk assessed by our Health and Safety department and stored in a locked facility at our property.
Once the works are completed a detailed post-treatment report with photographic evidence will be provided.

Common flies around your property
Blue Bottle
Blue bottles are usually associated with rotting flesh or food. Often attracted to rubbish and bin stores. Dead rodents or other animals are also common food sources for blue bottle flies.
Cluster
Cluster flies are often found in attic spaces and cavity walls. They use these areas to hibernate in autumn and winter. Cluster flies are regularly seen around window frames. Cluster flies do not feed from dead animals or waste food. They lay their eggs in earthworm colonies.
Fruit fly
Fruit flies by name are normally associated with fruit. Usually fermenting fruit. The are also attracted to other sugary substances. Also their attraction to beer has led them to be branded with the nickname of ‘beer flies’.
Mosquitoes
Mosquitoes are a nuisance as they bite. They are often found near water, this midge like fly rarely cause more of a problem than an itchy bite in the UK. However because of this they are considered a pest.
