I have been catching moles for 15 years and are very experienced in the control of them. Moles do not hibernate, and eat two-thirds of their bodyweight in worms every day.
A mole can devastate a lawn and garden within days, and their elusive, subterranean lifestyle makes them very difficult to control. Contact us to arrange for mole control in Devon.
Autumn time is when you start to notice wasp and hornet nests. The nests will have been there since the spring, but it is towards September when they start to forage for themselves, not the collective hive. This is a natural event, which happens every year, only the new queens will survive the winter to start the process over. We use powder chemicals with an air pressure system from a remote distance for safety. This can reach to a height of 10 metres from the ground which covers almost any situation. Please do not ask us to work from ladders – we recommend not to do this, even if you have a beekeeping suit.
This involves releasing bugs to eat other bugs. It is eco-friendly, releasing natural predators such as ladybirds to kill aphids and smaller bug pests. We offer a wide range of biological controls, including nematodes that can be used to control a variety of unwanted garden pests such as leather jackets, chafer grubs, vine weevils and slugs. We can supply and apply these controls to your garden which are a pet friendly, Natural England-safe product to use.
Biological controls are more environmentally friendly. They have minimal effects on non-target organisms, beneficial insects, wildlife, and the ecosystem as a whole.
Unlike pesticides, which can persist in the environment and potentially harm wildlife, biological controls have a more targeted impact on specific pest populations.
Biological controls specifically target the pest species of concern. Ladybirds, for example, are natural predators of aphids and other soft-bodied pests.
They actively seek out and consume these pests, helping to naturally regulate their populations. Pesticides, on the other hand, are often broad-spectrum and can affect a wide range of insects, including beneficial ones, such as bees.
Using ladybirds reduces the reliance on synthetic chemicals.
This is particularly beneficial in situations where there are concerns about human health, such as in residential areas, schools, hospitals, or gardens where chemical residues can pose risks to children, guests, or the surrounding environment.
