Horsham Pest & Vermin Control

At Horsham Pest Control, we use the traditional trapping method. We believe this is the most humane way of killing a mole and it guarantees removal of the problem. Mole catching is a skilled job and as professionals, we usually catch and dispatch of moles within two visits, but if we need to return in order to rid your pest problem then we will do.

Our Horsham mole catcher service has a no mole no fee guarantee!

At first sight, fleas may seem to be too small to be much of a threat to humans, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. If an infestation isn’t dealt with quickly and effectively, a colony of fleas can pass on a number of highly dangerous diseases, including typhus and plague, and they can even be a host for tapeworms.

If you even suspect their presence in the home, you need to call in the experts to get rid of fleas in Horsham. Our experts will be able to deal with such situations in a calm, methodical manner, helping to resolve the issue as quickly and as efficiently as possible. Expert help is only a phone call away.

Birds can be extremely hazardous to human health, because their faeces can build up if left undisturbed, and will lead to serious injuries in a relatively short space of time. One of the most dangerous of all pests in the UK, birds are capable of passing on dozens of diseases.

They include histoplasmosis, Cryptococcus and salmonella. Birds are also capable of infecting other creatures, such as mosquitoes, which then go on to infect humans later. Effective bird control in Horsham includes bird-proof spikes, netting and, when a fast solution is required, shooting.

Rabbits can be a problem for farmers and gardeners throughout the UK, but it should be noted that they can also pass on tularemia, a bacterial disease also known as rabbit fever. In addition to this, they carry diseases which can cause problems to domestic pets such as dogs and cats.

While we offer an effective proofing service for rabbit control in Horsham, we are also able to trap and kill rabbits on both domestic and commercial land. These creatures can breed at an exceptionally fast rate, so if you have an issue you need to make sure it’s dealt with as soon as possible.

At DCM Pest Control, we use two methods of catching rats. The more common method is baiting. We use bromadiolone and brodifacoum based poisons which act as an anticoagulant. Rats are what we call ‘neophobic’, which means they are weary of new objects. For this reason it will take up to a week for the pests to feed on the bait. Rats will need to feed on the poison several times before consuming a lethal dose. This method is chosen as it ensures the rats do not become suspicious of the bait and so the entire colony of rats can be dispatched. We also use mk 4 fenn traps in tunnels and snap break back traps when necessary.

Toxocariasis is a serious illness which can be passed on to humans via a tapeworm carried by foxes. There are a number of problems caused by foxes in our gardens and on our farms, including the sarcoptic mange mite and even rabies. Therefore, effective fox control in Horsham should be a top priority.

It should be noted that pet owners need to monitor the health of their cats and dogs if there are foxes in the local vicinity. Here at DCM Pest Control, we offer a number of solutions to fox problems, including culling, trapping and the installation of fox-proof fencing. We also offer helpful advice about remaining fox-free in the future.
