Farm Pest Control Blog (Wiltshire & Swindon)
This is the Stealth Pest Control blog — practical, plain-English guidance for farmers, smallholders and rural property owners dealing with persistent pest pressure around buildings, yards and working areas.
You’ll find straightforward posts on:
- Rats & mice (signs, risk, proofing, and what actually works on working farms)
- Grey squirrels (damage to buildings, wiring and trees — plus the wider wildlife impact)
- Pest birds (what’s legal in the UK, what’s ethical, and what “General Licences” really mean)
- Prevention checklists you can run in 30 minutes around barns, feed stores and yards
If you need help on-site in Wiltshire / Swindon and surrounding areas, head to Pest Control Services for what I do, or Contact to talk through your situation and get a clear plan.
