Services
Wasp Nest Removal
Our technicians provide safe removal of wasp nests using insecticide powders or non-toxic alternatives. Treatments adapt to nest location, employing abrasive powders near water sources or vacuum extraction for ground nests. All procedures follow strict safety protocols to protect non-target wildlife.
Rat Control
Comprehensive rat control combines baiting systems with structural proofing. We install non-return drain valves and conduct CCTV surveys to identify entry points. Commercial contracts include ongoing monitoring with non-toxic blocks to maintain rodent-free environments while minimising chemical use.
Mole Catching
Traditional trapping methods eliminate mole infestations without chemicals. Our BMCR-registered catchers use humane traps, offering per-mole pricing or fixed-rate clearances. Services cover domestic lawns, golf courses, and farmland with guaranteed results.
Bird Proofing
Specialist mesh systems prevent bird nesting beneath solar panels. Non-invasive clips protect panel integrity, with galvanised wire options offering 10-year durability. Installations allow maintenance access while maintaining 100% exclusion effectiveness.
Mouse Control
Non-toxic trapping programs address mouse infestations with weekly follow-ups. Technicians identify entry points through thermal imaging and recommend structural modifications. Commercial contracts include ongoing monitoring to prevent reinfestation while avoiding chemical contamination risks.

Great customer service, very good communication and even better service! I was having issues with pigeons nesting underneath the solar panels, thus causing blockage of the drains and droppings within the garden. I called DKG and they were very professional and got the job done, they covered the edging of the solar panels, preventing birds from nesting! If you have solar panels, get DKG!!!
