Hawking Pest Control in New Ross

New Ross is a working port and heritage town. Bird-pressure is gulls around the Dunbrody Famine Ship and food sites along the Barrow, and pigeons on the steep market lanes, with concentrated activity around the Dunbrody Famine Ship and the Barrow quays. The nearest landmark to most of our recent sites is the Dunbrody Famine Ship and the Barrow bridge. Most of our residential work in New Ross 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 New Ross 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.
