Drone Surveys in Wiltshire and Surrounding Areas

Wasps going in somewhere high on the roof, pigeons disappearing under the solar panels, a squirrel getting into the loft but no sign of how. Many pest problems start in places you can’t see from the ground, and scaffolding just to take a look is slow and expensive. Wiltshire Pest Services Ltd uses drones to inspect roofs, chimneys and hard-to-reach areas for homes, businesses and farms across Wiltshire and into the borders of Somerset, Dorset and Hampshire. Call us on 07711 259749 or use the form on this page to book a survey.

What Our Drone Surveys Are Used For

Finding Pest Entry Points on Roofs

Lifted tiles, gaps in soffits and fascias, damaged ridges and holes in the eaves are common ways in for squirrels, birds, rats and insects.

Locating Wasp and Hornet Nests

When wasps are using a gap high on the roof or chimney, the drone shows exactly where, so the nest can be treated safely.

Pigeons and Solar Panels

We check whether pigeons are nesting under solar panels or roosting on the roof, and how much mess and damage there is.

Chimneys, Gutters and Fascias

Blocked gutters, open chimney pots and damaged fascias can attract nesting birds, squirrels and bees. A drone checks them all in one flight.

Large Sites, Farms and Estates

On farms and estates, we can survey barns, large roofs and open land to find roosts, nests and problem areas.

Why Use a Drone?

No Scaffolding or Ladders

A drone reaches roofs, chimneys and high walls without the cost, time and disruption of scaffolding or cherry pickers.

Safer for Everyone

Nobody needs to climb onto a roof or near an active nest to see what’s going on.

Clear Photos and Video

You see exactly what we see, with photos and video of the problem areas.

Thermal Imaging

Thermal imaging can pick up the heat of animals and nests that are hard to spot by eye, such as birds tucked into roof spaces.

Who Our Drone Surveys Are For

Homeowners

Find out how pests are getting into your loft or roof, without paying for scaffolding first.

Businesses and Warehouses

Large roofs, loading bays and high structures can be checked quickly, with minimal disruption to the working day.

Historic and Listed Buildings

Roofs and stonework can be inspected without anything touching the building.

Home Buyers

A drone check of the roof can be part of a home buyer pest survey before you commit to a purchase.

How Our Drone Survey Works

Step 1: Get in Touch

Call us or use the form on this page. Tell us about the property and what you’re trying to find. If you call, we’ll take the details and send you a follow-up form through our booking system, then talk you through your options and what happens next.

Step 2: Planning and Pre-Flight Checks

We check the site, the weather, nearby buildings and any airspace restrictions, and agree when to fly.

Step 3: The Flight

We fly the drone around the roof, chimneys and problem areas, capturing photos and video, and using thermal imaging where it helps.

Step 4: Findings and Recommendations

We show you what we found and explain what it means, whether that’s an entry point to seal, a nest to treat or pigeons to deal with.

Step 5: Next Steps

If work is needed, we can carry out the treatment and proofing ourselves. For businesses, we can provide written reports and photos for your records.

What Affects the Cost of a Drone Survey

We price each survey once we understand the job. The main factors are the size of the building or site, how many areas need checking, whether thermal imaging is needed, and whether you need a written report. Get in touch for a clear quote.

Drone Survey FAQs

What is a drone survey for pest control?

It’s an inspection of roofs, chimneys and high areas using a drone with a camera, and thermal imaging where needed, to find pest entry points, nests and damage.

Do I need to be there during the survey?

Not always, but it helps if someone can give us access to the property and talk through the problem.

Is it legal to fly a drone over my property?

Yes, when it’s done in line with UK drone regulations and with the property owner’s permission. We plan every flight around the site and nearby buildings.

Can the drone see inside my loft?

No. The drone inspects the outside of the building. We combine it with an inspection inside the loft where needed.

Will I get photos of what you find?

Yes. We show you the photos and video, and can provide a written report with images for businesses and home buyers.

Can you check my solar panels for pigeons?

Yes. A drone is one of the quickest ways to check whether pigeons are nesting under solar panels and how much damage there is.

How much does a drone survey cost?

It depends on the size of the property, what needs checking and whether you need a written report. We give you a clear quote before we fly.
