Do you use poison?
No — never. Control is by precision, no-poison methods: targeted shooting and trapping backed by thermal and night-vision equipment. That's exactly why it's safe around horses, poultry, dogs and children, and on food-adjacent sites where rodenticides are a liability.
Rodenticides work slowly and indiscriminately. A poisoned rat keeps moving for days — long enough to be caught by a dog, a barn cat, an owl or a fox, which then takes the dose second-hand. On yards, smallholdings and anywhere food is handled, bait boxes are a standing risk rather than a solution.
Precision control takes the opposite approach: find the activity with thermal and night-vision equipment, remove the problem animals directly, and recover every carcass for lawful disposal. Nothing toxic is left on site, nothing dies in a wall void, and non-target species are never exposed.
It also produces evidence. Because each animal is accounted for, every visit ends with a written report — what was found, what was done, activity counts and prevention advice — instead of a guess about what the bait box may have caught.
