What happens to the deer carcass?
We handle all aspects of deer carcass removal and disposal in accordance with all relevant Irish regulations and best practices, ensuring a discreet and responsible process.

Is deer management safe?
Safety is our top priority. Our operations are conducted by fully trained, insured and certified professionals, adhering strictly to safety protocols to ensure the well-being of our team, clients, and the public.
Why is active deer management necessary?
Unchecked deer populations can increase by up to 30% annually, leading to severe ecological damage and often, starvation for older deer as their teeth wear away. Without natural predators in Ireland, human intervention is crucial for maintaining a healthy and sustainable deer population and ecosystem balance.
Why choose us?
Our clients gain the benefit of professional, timely, and effective impact reduction. We operate with open and transparent communication regarding the problem and its potential resolution. We also understand that successful management sometimes requires involving neighbours, particularly when deer are moving from adjacent lands, and we can advise on these collaborative approaches. We carry out comprehensive risk assessments, beware of providers who do not conduct full due diligence in this respect, it is often a prerequisite of farm insurance.
We have the knowledge required to apply for National Parks and Wildlife service derogation licenses on behalf of landowners to allow for night shooting where populations are nocturnal and significantly impacting farm operations.
