Hawking Pest Control
in Lanesborough
Near the Shannon bridge and Lough Ree
Lanesborough sits on the Shannon at the Longford–Roscommon border and the bird-pressure here is unusual — gulls drawn upriver from the Shannon and starling roosts in former power-station outbuildings. We've adapted our Lakeland and Shannon-side programmes to suit. The nearest landmark to most of our recent sites is the Shannon bridge and Lough Ree. Most of our residential work in Lanesborough is small-scale proofing — chimney mesh, dormer-roof spikes, gutter-edge wire and concealed netting on inset balconies.

Where 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 Lanesborough 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.
Commercial premises in Lanesborough
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.
For a typical Lanesborough 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.
