Our Methods Of Rabbit Control
When is Rabbit Control and Rabbit Eradication required?
Rabbit control and rabbit eradication is needed when the damage caused by them can no longer be tolerated or managed in the affected area. This can be for financial, safety or environmental reasons. Greatly reducing a population, and maintaining it at a low level, helps mange your rabbit problem and allows other wildlife to flourish, while still allowing a small population of rabbits to remain. Rabbit eradication will completely remove all the rabbits from the sensitive areas i.e. graveyards, train lines, archaeological sites...
​
Rabbits are one of few species that have a tendency to breed excessively, and can over graze in areas where population is out of control. Low levels of rabbits are also less susceptible to diseases such as myxomatosis and vhd.
DID YOU KNOW FOUR RABBITS CONSUME THE SAME AMOUNT OF GRASS AS A SHEEP EACH YEAR
If rabbit numbers are left unchecked the population increase can have many negative effects on an area. Grazing, chewing and digging combined with breeding are all characteristics that rabbits are famous for. You will know if you require rabbit control to reduce the rabbit population if you have experienced any of these common problems: crop damage, loss of habitat, electric wire damage, or missing flowers in gardens. To avoid such issues, it is often advisable to reduce a population.
Why We Don't Gas
While other rabbit control services will offer a gassing services, we believe its causes more problems than it solves; for the environment, and it is considerably more expensive than any other rabbit control method. When gassing, you drop the gas into the warrens covering all the holes behind you, in hope that it doesn't leak out; the result being 70% of the rabbits breath it in and die. BUT this method leaves the gas sitting in the warrens, killing all other life that comes into contact with it. Ultimately, having a large overall effect on biodiversity and wildlife in the surrounding area. We won't use any gas or poisons when doing our rabbit control.
One off visits - These visits are for small numbers of rabbits, and can usually be achieved in one or several days. The rabbits will be removed, and the holes, if accessible, filled in in an attempt to exclude them. All our contracts, whether industrial estate or a small garden, will come with a free quote and assessment, beating all other prices on the market!
​
Seasonal Contract - A constant rabbit control option, where rabbits are likely to keep coming back, either off land outside your curtilage, you can't access, or there is a huge number of rabbits that can't be controlled in a couple of days. We have seasonal contracts with large councils, schools and estates.
