I joined Luke at 8am and spent the whole day with him, until 4pm, and I was shocked that you can find cockroaches in Oldham. The discovery meant that another job opened up, and he had to then lay cockroach traps in the communal kitchen as well as the bedroom. “There was a sighting of a cockroach by a teacher four weeks ago, so we've treated it with gel and cockroach traps,” Luke said. “I'd still say rats and mice are the most common pest, but bedbugs have been a curveball this year. Finally, we drive to Boundary Park, the home of Oldham Athletic – where, as mentioned earlier, Northern Pest Management is the official pest partner.
