Get Rabbit Control quotes today!
Rabbits are a very common pest in the countryside, although they can cause issues in cities and in domestic back gardens. Rabbits affect gardens and farmland as they eat many types of vegetation and berries. They also breed very rapidly, and so a tiny amount of rabbits will quickly turn into a sizeable infestation. In some areas, there can even be a legal obligation to keep rabbit numbers under control because of their quick breeding. This legislation is in place to protect farmland and other areas as these can easily be affected by rabbits on neighbouring land.
There are various different pest control methods which can be used to successfully control rabbit populations. Trapping, snaring, gun and dog, ferreting and gassing are all used. Different methods will be effective in different areas, and the kind of method used is usually chosen due to the geography of the area. For example, certain types of traps like drop traps are likely to be utilised in locations that are very accessible to the public, as rabbit control may need to be carried out discreetly.
Qualified pest control companies will be able to survey the area and locate the rabbit infestation, along with noting down any runs that are frequently used. By doing this, they will be able to carry out an effective method of managing the rabbit population in an area.
