In agriculture, the control of rats and mice is essential to ensure the health of animals such as cattle, pigs and horses. Proper farm hygiene is essential to effectively control the population of rodents. By regularly cleaning barns and sanitising potential breeding sites, farmers not only reduce the risk of disease transmission but also minimise direct pest infestation. Timely and regular rat control in stables and yards protects your animals and secures the economic yield of your farm.
Regular inspections and maintenance: Inspection and maintenance of building structures to block access for rodents.
Use of rodenticides: Careful and targeted use of baits and traps to control rodent populations.
Waste management: Consistent management of feed stores and waste areas to minimise food access for rodents.

Flies are common hygiene pests on farms that can spread disease and affect animal welfare. A comprehensive hygiene strategy, including regular barn cleaning and adequate ventilation, is crucial to reduce fly infestations. Whitewashing walls and ceilings can also help to keep flies away. It is particularly important to take early action to control flies in pigsties, cattle and horses.
- Use of insecticides: Application of specific insecticides aimed at controlling flies, taking into account environmental and health standards.
- Biological control methods: Use of natural enemies such as parasitic wasps that control fly larvae in their developmental stage.
- Structural measures: Installation of fly screens and UV light traps to repel and trap flies.
