Is it safe around pets and livestock?

The short answer

Yes. Because no rodenticides or toxins are used, there is no secondary poisoning risk to dogs, cats, horses, poultry or wildlife. Each site is assessed first and the method is chosen to suit what lives there.

Secondary poisoning is the main hazard of conventional pest control: pets and predators eat poisoned rodents and take the dose themselves. Veterinary charities regularly treat dogs for rodenticide exposure, and birds of prey are routinely found carrying residues. Removing the poison removes that pathway entirely.

The remaining question is site safety, and that is handled by assessment. Before any work, the site is walked: where animals are housed, where children play, sight lines, backstops and access. The control method — and the timing, usually after dark when the site is quiet — is chosen around what lives there.

Work proceeds only where a safe, appropriate and lawful method exists for that specific site. If a site can’t be worked safely, you’ll be told so directly.
