Crop protection & land management

Professional Pigeon and Grey Squirrel Control Across North West England

Discreet, dependable crop and wildlife control for farms, private estates, golf courses and rural landowners.

DISCREET • CONFIDENTIAL • RISK ASSESSED • LANDOWNER AUTHORISED

The problem

Are pigeons and grey squirrels damaging your crops, woodland or estate?

Sustained pigeon activity can set back emerging crops and leave vulnerable fields patchy and uneven, particularly where flocks return to the same ground day after day. Grey squirrels can strip bark from young and semi-mature trees, damage woodland regeneration, and cause problems in buildings and managed grounds.

The scale varies enormously from site to site, which is why we assess before we advise. We do not make claims about what a season of damage will cost you, and we do not promise eradication.

Our services

Two services, planned around your land

Pigeon Crop Control

We watch the ground before we work it: pigeon numbers, flightlines and the fields taking the damage. Where it is safe, lawful and agreed with you, we use decoying and carefully planned shooting positions chosen well away from roads, footpaths, buildings and livestock.

Grey Squirrel Control

Site-specific grey squirrel control for woodland, estates, farms, buildings and golf courses. Only grey squirrels are included in this service. Every location is assessed individually and the method follows the site and its surrounding risks.

More about who we work with

How it works

Four straightforward stages

  1. 1

    Tell us about the problem

    A short enquiry with your location, the species involved and the damage you are seeing.

  2. 2

    We assess the site and surrounding risks

    Boundaries, roads, footpaths, houses, livestock and safe shooting areas.

  3. 3

    We agree a safe and appropriate control plan

    Methods, timings, access and how we will keep you informed.

  4. 4

    Our team attends and leaves the site tidy

    Clear communication on arrival and departure, and honest feedback afterwards.

Our working standard

A trusted presence on your land

Allowing anyone onto private land requires confidence in how they will behave. We work to agreed access and attendance arrangements, remain accountable to a nominated contact and treat each client’s identity, location and circumstances with discretion.

  • Client identities, locations and access arrangements treated confidentially
  • Attendance agreed in advance with the landowner or nominated contact
  • No client names, photographs, locations or details of work publicised without explicit permission
  • Respect for crops, livestock, residents, members, staff and other land users
  • Gates, tracks and working areas left as they were found
  • Cartridges, equipment and other materials removed after attendance
  • Clear feedback provided privately to the nominated contact

Our aim is to become a dependable long-term partner—not simply someone who attends once and disappears.
