Pest Control

There are many reasons why we need to control pests. Complying with the law, preventing the spread of disease, avoiding damage to property and reducing the chances of contamination are just some of them. Pests have the potential to cause a lot of damage to your business and can end up costing you a lot of money. That’s why you need to stop them in their tracks – BEFORE the damage is done. At APC we focus on prevention rather than remediation. Our aim is to provide an ongoing pest control service where pests are kept in check and your property is protected from damage throughout the year. Find out more about our pest prevention contracts and the benefits of having one by visiting APC online.

Bird Control

Feral pigeons are more than just an annoyance – they can be a danger to public safety. Bird fouling on stairs and pavements is a common cause of slips and falls; it can also spread diseases such as Ornithosis, Chlamydia Psittaci and Salmonella. Added to this, a bird’s nest and its droppings will provide a breeding ground for insects and cause damage to a building’s facade. For all these reasons and more, it is essential to control birds. We offer a number of feral bird control solutions, including netting and spikes for light wells, balconies, pitched roofs and ledges, etc. For more information, please visit APC online.

Wildlife Management

APC also offers a specialist wildlife management service aimed at controlling invasive or destructive species such as squirrels, moles, rabbits and deer. We use several different methods of control, including long netting, trapping, ferreting, shooting and gassing. APC recommends having a wildlife management contract whereby numbers are controlled on regular site visits rather than on one specific visit. This is because wildlife species such as squirrels and rabbits are highly likely to return after a period of time and therefore need to be dealt with on a recurring basis.

Woodworm Treatment

If you’re having problems with woodworm, speak to the team at APC. The introduction of Sovereign’s FLX Micro Emulsions has allowed for a safer, more effective form of treatment than that offered by conventional insecticides. FLX prevents the exoskeleton of the insect from developing rather than attacking its central nervous system – this means it will not harm humans and mammals and can therefore be applied more easily.
