Bawcro Pest & Vermin Control – Professional Pest Control Across Yorkshire

At Bawcro we do more than keep your site safe in winter. Through our sister company, Bawcro Pest & Vermin Control, we deliver fast, discreet and professional pest control services across Yorkshire. Our team offers tailored solutions for farms, estates, commercial properties and homes. We help with rodents, insects, birds and larger wildlife using safe, responsible methods that focus on prevention and conservation.

Pests can quickly cause costly damage to buildings, crops and stored goods. They can also spread disease and threaten hygiene standards in workplaces. That is why we act quickly and effectively to remove infestations and help you keep control all year round. If you see signs of rats in a feed store, a wasp nest in the roof, or birds nesting in the wrong place, our skilled technicians can help.

At Bawcro, we use both old pest control methods and new monitoring systems. This gives you long-term protection, not just quick fixes. Our team quickly and quietly handles pests. This includes rodents near farm buildings, birds nesting in warehouses, and seasonal infestations at construction sites. We focus on restoring hygiene and safety while finding the main cause of the problem.

Who We Help

We provide year-round pest management services tailored to each type of site and setting. Every location presents its own challenges, so our team always begins with a detailed inspection and consultation.

Farms and Agricultural Sites

We provide complete pest control for farms, stables, grain stores and agricultural land. Our work includes rodent management, insect treatments, bird control, mole and rabbit control and crop protection. We understand the importance of maintaining biosecurity and operate to strict industry standards supported by organisations such as CRRU and BASIS Registration.

Commercial Properties

We work with offices, warehouses, retail parks, food production sites, restaurants, care homes and schools. Our service is discreet. It helps to protect your reputation. It also ensures that you follow Health and Safety Executive (HSE) rules and environmental laws. We provide both one-off treatments and routine pest prevention contracts to maintain long-term protection.

Estates and Rural Land

Our wildlife and estate management services include humane pest control, deer management and bird control. We are trained and licensed for specialist culling when required and always follow best practice guidance from professional bodies such as the British Deer Society (BDS) and the British Association for Shooting and Conservation (BASC).

Homes and Domestic Settings

We offer fast, reliable help for homeowners dealing with rats, mice, wasps, ants and other common household pests. We also provide pest proofing to prevent future problems and offer seasonal advice to help protect your home all year.

Our Pest Control Process

Every site we visit starts with a full inspection to identify activity levels, access points and potential food sources. We create a treatment plan using safe methods that fit your site. This can include traps, baiting systems, proofing, or changes to the environment. Once the infestation is under control, we focus on prevention. We will have regular monitoring visits and detailed reports. This way, you can stay compliant with health, safety, and environmental standards.

Our Pest Control Services

Types of Pests We Manage

We deal with all common UK pests including rats, mice, squirrels, moles and rabbits, as well as wasps, ants and other insect infestations. For farms and rural sites, we also manage crows, pigeons and other nuisance birds using humane deterrents. Each species requires a different approach, and our technicians are trained to identify signs early, treat effectively and protect your premises from re-infestation.

Tailored Pest Control Plans

Every site is different, which is why we carry out a full survey before deciding on the best treatment. We create a custom plan to solve the problem quickly and safely. We also aim to reduce disruption to your property or business.

Pest Proofing and Prevention

The best way to deal with pests is to stop them gaining access in the first place. We identify and seal entry points, install deterrents and give clear, practical advice to reduce ongoing risk. Prevention measures save time, cost and disruption in the long run.

Wildlife and Estate Management

Our trained team provides humane control for rabbits, moles, squirrels, crows, foxes and deer. We are fully licensed, insured and committed to working responsibly to protect livestock, crops and the wider environment.

Rodent and Insect Control

Rodents and insects can cause significant damage if not dealt with quickly. Our technicians are trained in the safe use of baits, traps and environmentally responsible control techniques. We have the Lantra Level 2 Award in Rodent Management. We follow all current legislation on pest control and wildlife management.

Bird Control and Proofing

Birds such as pigeons and gulls can create health and structural issues for buildings. We provide netting, spikes, visual deterrents, and expert cleaning. This helps keep your property safe, clean, and in line with DEFRA and local authority rules.
