Pest management for construction and industrial sites

Practical pest management for construction sites, warehouses and industrial premises across Somerset and Devon.

Practical pest management for busy sites

You may be dealing with rats around welfare facilities, waste areas or drainage systems. You may have pest activity near stock, loading bays or operational areas. You may simply need a contractor who can work safely on site, provide the required documentation and deal with the problem without creating more work for your site team.

Construction sites may need prompt help with a specific problem. Warehouses and industrial premises are more likely to need ongoing pest management to protect stock, meet customer requirements and maintain clear records.

When you contact Guardian, you’ll speak directly to people who understand these environments.

We’ll take the time to understand the site, explain the available options and recommend the most sensible way forward.

We’ll recommend only the work we believe is needed and explain why.

Why pest management matters on construction and industrial sites

Pest activity on a construction site can affect welfare conditions, site inspections and the progress of the work. As the site changes, food sources, shelter and pest activity can move with it. Control measures may need to be reviewed and adjusted as the project develops.
In warehouses and industrial premises, pest activity can damage stock, contaminate materials, disrupt operations, lead to complaints or make it harder for the site to meet customer requirements.

Risks may include:

Rats around welfare facilities, skips and drainage systems
Flies and wasps around canteens, bins and temporary buildings
Pest activity moving into new areas as the site develops
Mouse activity and damage to stored materials and stock
Bird activity around roofs, yards, loading bays and external storage
Incomplete records that do not meet customer, inspection or site requirements

How the service works

Step 1: Tell us about the site
Tell us about the site, what has been reported and who is responsible for arranging the work.
Step 2: We assess what is needed
A straightforward call out can often be priced from the information you provide. Planned services and larger or changing sites can have a free site survey before we prepare a proposal.
Step 3: Receive a quotation or proposal
We’ll explain our recommendations clearly and provide a written quotation or proposal. Prices are plus VAT.
Step 4: We carry out the work
We work to site rules, induction requirements and agreed safe systems of work. RAMS specific to the site can be provided where required.
Step 5: Reporting and follow up
Every visit produces a digital report. Planned contracts also receive an on site pest management folder unless the client asks otherwise. Recommendations, follow up actions and the current site status are recorded where appropriate.

Frequently asked questions

Do you work on live construction sites?

Yes. We work on changing construction sites and on established industrial premises.

Do your staff hold CSCS cards?

Yes. They also complete site induction and work to site rules.

Do you provide RAMS?

Yes. RAMS are produced for the job.

Who do you invoice?

The contracting company. We do not invoice individual site staff. Card payment can be arranged if the client needs it.

Is out-of-hours attendance included?

Only where it is written into the contract.

Do you treat a single welfare cabin?

Yes, as a priced call-out. A survey is normally associated with a planned contract or a large site rather than a single welfare cabin.
