Responsible Wildlife Control

Wildlife can cause significant damage to properties, gardens, and agricultural land. Moles tunnel through lawns, rabbits destroy crops, foxes threaten livestock, and birds create mess and structural damage to buildings.

We believe in humane, responsible wildlife management. Our approach focuses on effective control while respecting animal welfare and complying with Irish wildlife legislation. Where possible, we use deterrent and exclusion methods rather than lethal control.

Based in rural Laois, we understand the balance between protecting your property and respecting the natural environment. Our LANTRA certification ensures we use approved, ethical methods for all wildlife management.

Bird Proofing & Control

Pigeons, gulls, and other birds can cause significant problems for buildings and businesses. Their droppings are corrosive, unsightly, and carry disease. Nesting can block gutters and damage roofing.

We install professional bird deterrent systems that prevent roosting and nesting without harming the birds. Our solutions are discreet, long-lasting, and suitable for all building types from historic properties to modern warehouses.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our wildlife and bird management services.

Is wildlife control legal in Ireland?
Yes, but it's regulated. Certain species are protected under the Wildlife Act, and control methods must be humane and legal. We're fully trained in wildlife legislation and only use approved methods. Some activities require permits - we advise on this during our assessment.
How do you control moles humanely?
We use traditional and modern trapping methods that are the most effective and humane approach for mole control. Traps are placed in active runs and checked regularly. This is more effective than deterrent devices, which rarely work and simply move moles elsewhere.
Do bird proofing methods harm the birds?
No. Our bird deterrent systems - spikes, netting, and electric systems - are designed to prevent landing and nesting without injuring birds. They simply encourage birds to roost elsewhere. The systems are discreet and approved for use on listed buildings.
Can you remove a fox that's killing my chickens?
We focus on prevention and deterrence for foxes. This includes advising on secure housing, electric fencing, and other measures to protect your poultry. We work within wildlife legislation, which regulates how foxes can be managed.
How long do bird proofing systems last?
Quality bird proofing systems last 10-15 years or more with minimal maintenance. We use UV-stabilised netting and stainless steel spikes that withstand Irish weather conditions. We can provide maintenance contracts for larger installations.
Do you handle bees and wasps?
Wasps yes - we safely remove wasp nests from homes and businesses. For bees, we take a different approach. Honeybee swarms are referred to local beekeepers for safe relocation. Bumblebee nests are usually left alone as they're rarely aggressive and naturally die off by autumn.
