Pest Control

Using innovative methods and creative bespoke solutions, we eradicate pest issues. Your site technician will be supported by the Dealey team of committed and passionate pest controllers.

Dealey Pest Control

We are a team of pest control geeks. There is no doubt. We love it. We love learning new methods, creating bespoke solutions and finding out what new ways pests are challenging us. What we love most is when we put ourselves out of work by eradicating a pest issue for one of our clients.

Whatever the sector, we can help. We understand that each environment is unique and therefore needs an approach that is unique. We take our time to inspect and assess your site, and create the ideal solution for your environment and pest.  We hold several accreditations across the sectors and can perform audits to maintain standards and minimise the risk of infestation. 

Two of Dealey’s core values is Respect and Support. Not only do you have the on-site presence of a great pest controller at your disposal, but you also have the brains and experience of the whole team who are committed and passionate pest controllers, to keep your site pest-free. 

Pest Control Services

Dealey pest control services are provided throughout the country in a range of sectors. We love a challenge and will find a unique and creative solution to your pest control issue.

Pest control on farms is unique because farms are unique.

For us, unique pleasures of dealing with people on fair and equal terms are balanced by the unique challenges of trying to encourage inbound rodents to eat rat bait instead of the 500 tonnes of grain sitting in the grain store!

We love farmers; we love farming; most of us have links to the farming industry. We know farmers hate rats; we hate rats. Dealey Pest Control is a marvellous solution for the agricultural community because we ‘just get it.’ There’s none of the sterile and unimaginative pest control tried by the larger companies; we are set up to be responsive and to tailor a proper baiting plan which is specific to the pest problems of an agricultural site.

All our methods are ecologically sound. We have been refining them over sixty-plus years, and we can accurately bait for rodents without putting other wildlife, products or livestock at risk. We follow the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use Code of practice (http://www.thinkwildlife.org/) to make sure we have the most environmentally secure systems of baiting in place.

We happily guide you through the audit process for TASCC, ACCS, Red Tractor and the like. One less headache on a difficult audit day!

Whether it’s getting stores ready before harvest, debugging after an infestation or refilling during the storage season we’re on hand to make sure your stores are insect-free.

A wide range of chemicals is at your fingertips to suit your different needs.

A very cost-effective process.

Dealey uses the best equipment with the latest chemicals (DEFRA Approved, of course) to make sure that every inch of the store is treated.

The construction of the store is taken into account. If the store is made of wood, has grain handling machinery or has lots of nooks and crannies, Dealey will use the appropriate tools, to blast our insecticides into all of those out-of-sight and reach places, including the ceiling, where the bugs are hiding. 

Dealey will regularly rotate their active ingredients to make sure there are no cases of chemical resistance in the insects we are going after. 

Dealey Fumigation is a very open company full of technical experts. If you want to know more about grain storage, contact us for the answers.

Look after the profits from your year’s hard work with our Grain Care service.

The HGCA AHDB Good Storage Guide says you should check your grain weekly. Do you know what you are looking for? Do you want the reassurance of an expert to help you optimise your storage to make sure you stay bug-free? 

Our team have seen the results of misguided storage practices. The thing is, everyone thinks they are storing right until they get a problem, be it condensation, moisture absorption, insects or germination. We will help you swing the odds of storage so decisively in your favour that you’ll be able to sleep better at night knowing your grain is protected and don’t get an upsetting unplanned cost of a fumigation treatment or a rejection.

If you get a weighbridge claim, we will be there to fight your corner.

THE SOLUTION FOR LONG TERM STORAGE.

The longer you store grain, the higher the risk of infestation, it’s as simple as that.

We have come up with several novel methods of admixture which can be used to mitigate the risk of long term storage.

With grain markets going up and down like…(insert smut here)… there is often the need to keep grain for longer than planned even hanging on to grain for two years.

Just recently we carried out a grain admixture treatment on wheat from three harvests ago.

Organic grain? No problem! We have insecticide admix solutions for that too.

Don’t get rid of your grain at a bad price just because it’s too risky to hang on to it. Give us a call instead. We’ll provide you with long term storage options, free from the risk of infestation.

Commercial sites are a huge bracket of businesses which all have one thing in common – human activity. This activity will always lead to interest from our natural bedfellows, the pests.

Whether you need us for specific pest control issues or whether it’s just regular visits for peace of mind, we will have the correct contract for you. We will ensure the safety of your workers, customers and contractors with our cutting-edge materials, equipment and methods. All of our staff are RSPH Level 2 trained as a minimum, and every one of them has gone deep into pest biology and behaviour.

Couple this with a good experience of the sensitivity that is necessary to deal with pest issues on a commercial site and the provision of a technician who has the necessary front-of-house skills not to put your reputation at risk. 

We could go into a huge amount of detail here suggesting why you should call us to deal with them, but the page would be longer than a convoy of rats in Hamelin. So here’s just a few of the most common:

Perennially attracted to the bins, wash down areas, service areas, rear of house, mess rooms, canteens, basically anywhere there is a source of food and water.

Leaving telltale signs after a weekend. When someone comes in to find droppings on their desk or their beloved biscuit drawer raided.

 

Perhaps a colleague has a philandering tomcat at home. Yes, cats bring fleas into the house but then they can travel to work on a woolly sock and bite everyone’s ankles. 

Not pleasant and not a good boost to productivityFleas need treating quickly and quietly to get the office back up to full speed ASAP. 

If you have a canteen where food is prepared, you should really have an electronic fly killer in place. Of course, this should be the right spec so that flies don’t explode into pieces and scatter into your sandwiches. Food-safe fly killers are our preference.

 

Starlings pooing in the car park? Pigeons roosting on the building? Seagulls raiding the bins? Angry birds attacking customers?! Yes, it’s gone a bit Hitchcock out thereBut fear not, we also have a specialist bird control department. With a preventative approach, we can stop birds roosting using different proofing systems or our falconry service to scare them away.  Check out our bird control tab for more info.

Mostly it’s garden ants that cause the issues. These are mostly preventable, and we don’t even need to spray insecticides for them. Whether they are black ants going for your food or pharaoh ants climbing up the building, we prefer to bait the ants and let them do our work for us. Controlling ants quickly is key.

 

Pest control for manufacturers, factories, processors, Oh, the nooks and crannies that come with industrial sites! Pests love the little unplanned areas that come with site expansions, alterations or additions. Even industrial sites that are the most inhospitable of environments can be ideal places for rats and mice because they are warm, full of hiding places and have no predators. All it takes is a bit of food and a drop of rain, and you’ve got a rodent haven.

Safety is always key for our dear industrial customers. We like to go into the nasty areas of the site. The places that are normally out of bounds. The places that… only a pest would go. But our thorough servicing will always be done with safety and sensitivity at the top of our list.

As a member of British Pest Control Association (BPCA), you can be assured that every member of our team is trained, insured and trusted. 

We operate to a vast array of customers’ bespoke auditing processes. We have the systems in place to ensure the excellence of service. We always rank very highly on Independent Audit checks.

Technical inspections can be carried out as part of the service on our larger sites to make sure your pest control service is delivering the maximum value. The technical reports will highlight any improvements required to ensure that your site, staff and processes stay safe from the risk of pest infestation. 

Worth a page all of its own, Food Manufacturing throws up some great challenges for a good pest controller. This is an area where we really come into our own because the key to successful pest control on food sites is knowledge and experience; we certainly have those.

All our food manufacturing customers are granted access to the online customer portal because we know how heavily they are audited. They need up-to-date information on compliance documents, audit trails, trend analysis data, service schedules and the like. It’s all available with the click of a mouse.

We service sites to all supermarket standards, including Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury’s and M & S. We love an audit.

We have a lot of BRC customers. This global standard is getting more and more popular, and we have helped many an existing customer prepare for their first BRC audit. We know how daunting this transition can be, and we can help walk you through it if you are thinking of conversion.

Auditors are great fans of our Electronic Reporting service because it is so transparent. All actions and accountabilities are readily available as well as compliance documents, training records and the like. Just give your auditor the Auditor Login details we provide and let them get on with it while you go about your busy day.

Most of our food manufacturing customers also go for the Gold E+ service which gives you an interactive site map of the pests on your site where you can assess numbers of insects present in traps, trends of pests, even trend analysis of pest activity in individual inspection points can be accessed with one click from the map. It is all so simple. Find out more about our electronic reporting here.

Go deeper with us, and you’ll get the Gold Partner service which provides all the benefits of a fully auditable electronic reporting service combined with access to the Insect 100 team. These guys practice ‘extreme’ integrated pest management as standard. Engineering controls, heat maps, drainage inspection cams, process building and more, are all integrated to really dig into your site and make it a hostile environment for pests.

We are proud to run a paperless reporting system for all our pest control customers.

  • Reduces the chances of lost reports because everything is emailed to all key contacts within your business.
  • Keeps everything in one place for compliance paperwork, including Safety Data Sheets, Insurance, and Training records.
  • Enables our technicians to take photos and make recommendations while servicing a site, eliminating guesswork from reports.
  • Keeps auditors happy. All you have to do is make them a coffee and let them get on with it.
  • Saves trees, of course!

All of our reports filter back through our accounts software and are reviewed alongside the bill you receive to make sure no one is overcharged.

Electronic reporting is carried out as standard at no extra charge. It makes our company more efficient and our customers happier. What’s not to like?!

All pest control treatments are carried out following the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU) guidelines.
All rodent control treatments are started with an Environmental Risk Assessment, and the hierarchy of risk governs the course of action.
