Castleford, where the Aire and Calder meet, has terraces and large estates plus buildings from its coal and glass past. We fit humane proofing to all of them.
Large estates have a particular pattern: hundreds of similar houses, so a flock that learns one roofline can easily work along the whole street. In Castleford the pigeons seen in gardens and on car roofs often come from just a few favourite roosts. Finding and proofing those, rather than every house, is sometimes the most sensible plan, and we say so when it is.
Terraces and former coal and glass industrial buildings add ledges, open roofs and loading bays near the river junction. Water and open space nearby help flocks feel at home. We only fit humane, lawful deterrents because pigeons are protected, and we look after active nests with care. Price depends on the area covered, how high the work is, and whether a clean-up must come first.
Not necessarily. Often a few buildings act as the main roost. We try to identify them, and can quote for your own house, being honest about what a single property can achieve. If neighbours share the problem, a joint scheme can still be worth discussing with them.
Yes. Free surveys for homes and businesses apply, and commercial service contracts are available where a site needs ongoing checks of netting, wire and spikes. We survey the roof, the yard and the entrances, then quote for the work required on the unit.
Pigeon Proofing across Leeds and Yorkshire · Pest control in Castleford
One bird on a ledge is not a problem, but a settled flock is. Here is how to recognise a roost, a nesting site and a feeding habit, and what each one means for the building.
Read the advice →Pigeons rarely leave because you ask them to. They leave when a ledge, roof or sill stops being a comfortable place to land. This guide covers what works and what does not.
Read the advice →Pigeon proofing can range from a short job on a single ledge to a full scaffold project on a large building. This guide explains why, so you can judge a quote properly.
Read the advice →Pigeons are a nuisance long before they are a serious hazard, but a settled flock can cause blocked drainage, soiled entrances and hygiene concerns. Here is how to weigh the risks sensibly.
Read the advice →It is far easier to stop pigeons settling than to move a flock that has made itself at home. These are the steps that matter, in the order that tends to help most.
Read the advice →A householder can sort out a small ledge with the right materials, but larger buildings bring height, legal and hygiene issues. This guide explains where the line falls.

A typical job begins with watching how the birds use the building, then fitting the system that fits that pattern.

Thank you Sean and Zack for your speedy and efficient response to our wasp problem. We originally thought we had 2 wasps nests but on the end had 4. After our initial call they came out the next day and even came out a few days later when another next was discovered. Thank you, we will definitely recommend you.Mrs Carter8 August 2018
