Professional Farm Pest Control Services
Bawcro provides specialist farm pest control across Yorkshire, helping farmers protect livestock, crops, animal feed, stored grain and farm buildings from pests and wildlife.
Pest problems on a working farm can quickly become costly. Rats and mice can contaminate feed and damage buildings, pigeons and crows can create problems around livestock and grain stores and wildlife such as rabbits and deer can cause significant damage to crops and land.
Our experienced pest controllers understand the challenges of working farm environments and provide practical pest control for farms tailored to the site, the pest and the level of activity.
Specialist Pest Control for Yorkshire Farms
No two farms are the same and pest pressures can vary considerably depending on livestock, crops, buildings, storage and the surrounding land.
Bawcro can assess your farm, identify current pest activity and areas of increased risk and recommend an appropriate farm pest management programme.
Our farm pest control services can cover:
- Livestock buildings
- Barns and agricultural sheds
- Grain stores
- Animal feed stores
- Farmyards
- Machinery and storage buildings
- Crop fields
- Farm boundaries and surrounding land
Whether you have an immediate pest problem or require regular monitoring and an ongoing farm pest control contract, we can tailor our approach to your farm.
Red Tractor Pest Control for Farms
Effective pest management is particularly important for farms operating under Red Tractor standards.
Rodents, birds and other pests can present contamination risks around livestock, animal feed and stored products, making appropriate prevention, monitoring and record keeping an important part of farm management.
Bawcro can provide ongoing pest control and monitoring for farms, helping identify activity and areas of risk before problems become more difficult to manage.
Where required, this can include regular site visits, pest monitoring, appropriate control measures and practical recommendations to reduce future pest activity.
Rat and Mouse Control on Farms
Rats and mice are among the most common pest problems found on working farms.
Livestock buildings, feed stores, grain stores and farm buildings can provide rodents with readily available food, water and shelter.
If populations become established, rodents can:
- Contaminate animal feed and stored grain
- Spread disease
- Damage packaging and stored products
- Gnaw electrical cables and equipment
- Damage buildings and insulation
- Create potential fire risks
- Reproduce rapidly
Bawcro provides professional rat control and mouse control for farms throughout Yorkshire.
Our approach isn't simply about dealing with visible rodents. We look at where activity is occurring, what may be attracting them and practical steps that can help reduce future problems.
Bird Control on Farms
Farm buildings, barns, livestock units and grain stores can provide pest birds with shelter, nesting opportunities and access to food.
Pigeons can contaminate buildings, animal feed, grain and machinery with droppings, feathers and nesting material.
Crows can also cause significant problems around crops, livestock and farm buildings where numbers become difficult to manage.
Bawcro provides professional pigeon control and crow pest control for farms across Yorkshire.
Depending on the site and circumstances, control may include appropriate deterrents, proofing, habitat management and other lawful management methods.
Grain Store Pest Control
Stored grain is a valuable crop and preventing contamination during storage is an important part of farm pest management.
Rodents, birds and stored-product insects can all create problems within grain stores and surrounding buildings.
Bawcro provides dedicated grain store management alongside our wider farm pest control services, helping farmers protect stored grain and identify pest activity before it becomes established.
Protecting Crops and Farmland from Wildlife
Farm pest control doesn't stop at the buildings.
Deer and rabbits can cause considerable damage to crops, young plants, trees and other vegetation. Foxes can present problems around livestock and poultry while mole activity can damage pasture.
Bawcro provides:
Our approach considers the individual farm, the extent of the activity and the wider environment before determining the most appropriate management method.
For larger areas of farmland and more complex wildlife issues, see our land and wildlife management services.
Farm Pest Proofing and Prevention
Good farm pest control isn't only about responding when an infestation has already become established.
Where practical, we look at the conditions contributing to pest activity, including potential entry points, food sources, storage practices and areas providing harbourage.
Practical proofing and preventative measures can then form part of the wider pest management programme.

Ongoing Farm Pest Control Contracts
For many working farms, regular pest management provides better protection than waiting for a problem to develop.
Bawcro can provide ongoing farm pest control contracts with scheduled visits and monitoring tailored to the requirements of the site.
Regular visits allow our pest controllers to monitor activity, identify changes and take appropriate action before an emerging problem becomes established.
This can be particularly valuable around livestock buildings, feed stores, grain stores and other areas where pest activity could result in contamination, damage or disruption.
