Hawking Pest Control in Castlecomer
Near Castlecomer Discovery Park and the colliery heritage
Castlecomer's heritage cluster — Discovery Park, the colliery terraces, the Castlecomer Estate — sits in a rural farming context. Bird-pressure is split: rook and jackdaw pressure around the Discovery Park and pigeon roosts in the colliery cottages, and the right approach varies street by street. The nearest landmark to most of our recent sites is Castlecomer Discovery Park and the colliery heritage. Most of our residential work in Castlecomer is small-scale proofing — chimney mesh, dormer-roof spikes, gutter-edge wire and concealed netting on inset balconies.

Learn moreWhere pigeons or gulls have established a strong roost, we'll add a short course of weekly Harris Hawk visits to break the cycle, then return for a follow-up inspection. Every system is fully reversible, weatherproofed for Irish conditions, and discreet — most installations are invisible from street level. We don't use lethal methods on any site, residential or commercial. Commercial work in Castlecomer usually starts with a free site assessment — we walk the roofline, identify the active roost points, photograph fouling patterns and species-identify what's actually on site.
From there we propose a layered plan: scheduled hawking visits at a frequency that matches the pressure, plus targeted proofing (mesh, netting, post-and-wire, stainless spikes or gull-spiders) on the structures the birds are using. Every commercial visit comes with a written method statement, RAMS, insurance certs and a service report. Most clients are on an annual integrated programme inside the first year.
Castlecomer Discovery Park and the colliery heritage
For a typical Castlecomer site we recommend the integrated bird programme pathway: an initial site assessment, a short course of weekly Harris Hawk flights, and concealed proofing tuned to the species and structure. Conservation-grade fixings are used on every protected or listed building. We provide written documentation for HSE, food-safety auditors and local-authority planning where needed.
