Hawking Pest Control in Ashbourne

Ashbourne is one of Meath's fastest-growing commuter towns, with major retail parks on the M2/M50 junction. Bird-pressure is mainly pigeons around the M2/M50 retail parks and starling roosts in nearby business units, and we run scheduled programmes on the big-box retail roofs and the surrounding business units. The nearest landmark to most of our recent sites is the M2/M50 interchange and Ashbourne Town Park. Most of our residential work in Ashbourne 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 Ashbourne 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.
