A Harris hawk used by Cinque Ports Pest Control for humane bird deterrence

A little different

Humane bird control with our Harris hawks

Gulls and pigeons on a roof or around a business do not always call for spikes and netting. We also offer eco friendly falconry, using trained Harris hawks to move birds on naturally and keep them away.

  • A natural deterrent that birds respect
  • Ideal for rooftops, yards and commercial sites
  • Paired with netting, spikes and proofing where needed

John responded to my enquiry promptly and very graciously with detailed information. I couldn’t use their services this time, but Cinque Ports is definitely on my shortlist for next time.

From the moment John arrived, he was professional, knowledgeable, and clearly experienced in what he does. He carefully assessed our property and quickly got to work bird-proofing our chimney, which had become a nesting spot for jackdaws. The solution he installed is solid, and most importantly—effective. He also fitted several pest proofing air brick mesh vent covers, which has given us real peace of mind. It’s rare these days to find someone who takes so much pride in their work and delivers this level of service. I’ll definitely be calling him for any future pest control needs—he’s now my go-to expert. Highly recommended!

Very professional. Thanks John for dealing with a bird problem which was causing us a real concern. Arrived when promised and solved the problem. Highly recommended.

Incredibly knowledgeable. John identified that field mice were coming in through the air bricks and was able to trap them and stop the problem by sealing all their entry point without environmental harm. So impressed at his knowledge, professionalism and going the extra mile always. Such a contrast from previous experiences with larger companies which failed to stop issues. No problems since then and mice can live in peace outside.

John came out on the day of contact. Was very friendly and honest and got to work to clear rats in the loft. John also filled in the hole with cement where they were gaining entry. Very happy with this service and would totally recommend.

My go to pest control company on Romney Marsh. John visited within a few hours of me phoning to inspect what I thought was a wasps nest. He found they were honey bees so put me in touch with his beekeeper friend who was happy to remove the bees & rehome them.
