Nick Palmer – Company Director
Since a very young age, the countryside has always interested me. At the age of 10, I would spend my weekend’s camping and studying the wildlife around my grandfather’s dairy farm. Up until the age of 15, my ambition was to become an agricultural vet – this coincided with the foot and mouth outbreak (2001) that claimed the lives of over 10 million livestock, leaving numerous farmers struggling to deal with such a loss. Many tragically took their own lives due to the devastating effects of the outbreak.
These events resulted in the mass eradication of specific pest species as they were proven to carry the disease. This is where my interest in pest control began, not gaining pleasure through killing pests but gaining an understanding of the effects that pests have on the various environments that humans have created.
I studied Wildlife & Countryside Management at Bishop Burton agricultural college for three years, where I gained further experience in land management and all that comes with it. Once leaving college I traveled the UK working on various farms and carrying out a variety of agricultural projects to further my knowledge. Once the traveling was over, I worked as a specialist pest technician at one of the leading pest control companies in the UK and it is here where I honed my pest control skills.
In 2012 I set out on my original goal of running my own specialist agricultural, domestic and commercial pest control company. With the practical experience accrued on the various farms and the professional training gained working as a specialist technician, I was armed with the knowledge to provide a premium service to farms, estates, commercial enterprises and domestic customers.
Pest and vermin control techniques vary depending on their locations. Rats, mice, squirrels and birds in urban locations will feed and behave differently to their rural relations and this is why a specialist rural pest controller is required to deal with rural and agricultural issues. This in turn can save you money and the relief of knowing your pest control-related problem is dealt with swiftly by someone who understands:
