WHY DO WE CARRY OUT FARM PEST CONTROL?
- Farmers work hard year round to ensure their crops or livestock are the best quality. All of this hard work, however, can be quickly ruined by pests which can cause thousands of pounds worth of damage every year if they are not controlled. If pest control isn't implemented and sustained, then pests will continue to strike again and again, costing you, the farmer, money.
- Farm pest control can often be overlooked due to the cost and is seen as an easy way to reduce overheads. However, when crop damage from pests is eating away at your margins year on year, the costs will soon add up and the farm enterprise becomes a very difficult investment to manage. Some growers have estimated that wild rabbit damage on their arable farms equates to £25/acre over their entire cropped acreage! Combined with other pests like moles and rats and the cost of not using pest control can be huge!
- Pest damage to farms can come from a number of different animals, including wild rabbits, moles and rats. Prevention of damage from these pests will save you money in the long term and is something that the farmer should never overlook. Therefore, you need to minimize the damage caused by pests to your crops and there's no better way to achieve that than with farm pest control methodologies
