Rat Removal
Professional rat eradication using humane traps and exclusion techniques. Our certified technicians identify entry points, eliminate infestations, and implement proofing measures to prevent recurrence. Treatments follow CRRU guidelines for safety and effectiveness.
Wasp Nest Removal
Safe nest treatment with insecticidal dusts and removal services. We assess nest location, apply treatments at optimal times, and guarantee return visits if needed. Emergency callouts available for dangerous infestations.
Pigeon Proofing
Custom bird deterrent installations including netting, spikes, and anti-perch devices. Our solutions prevent property damage while complying with wildlife protection laws, with mesh systems specifically designed for solar panels.
Squirrel Control
Humane squirrel trapping combined with roofline proofing. We use one-way valves to remove squirrels from lofts, repair damage, and install metal guards to prevent re-entry through vulnerable roof areas.
Solar Panel Proofing
Specialist bird mesh installation beneath solar panels. Our discreet stainless-steel mesh prevents pigeon nesting while maintaining panel efficiency, with all work complying with building regulations and manufacturer warranties.

We had a wasp infestation at my elderly parents house which was restricting disability access. Graham was sympathetic and turned up within hours of being called. He identified and treated two nests, gave sound recommendations on the building and how to avoid in the future with a follow up visit due in two weeks. Cheaper than what the Local Authority used to offer and far more comprehensive. Absolutely fantastic service! - Ash

Graham is fantastic at what he does. Such a nice chap, who is knowledgeable and got rid of the unwanted visitors in my home over the course of few weeks. Very personable and easy to get on with, and was on hand whenever we had queries. Couldnt recommend him any more.
