Deer Management for Farms and Estates

Red & Roe® provides practical, responsible red and roe deer management for landowners across North Devon and Exmoor, with the land and its long-term condition at the centre of every decision.

A land-led approach

Effective deer management begins with understanding the land, the deer using it and the damage or pressure being experienced. Field signs, thermal observation, trail-camera monitoring and local knowledge can help establish patterns of movement and activity before an appropriate response is discussed.

Management may include observation, population assessment and, where necessary, selective deer control undertaken safely, discreetly and within applicable legislation.

Working with rural businesses

We support farmers, landowners, estate managers and woodland owners where deer are affecting crops, pasture, young trees, habitats, fencing or other property. The aim is proportionate management that protects productive land while respecting deer welfare and the wider countryside.

Clear arrangements from the outset

Professional deer management for farms and estates is normally provided at no cost to the landowner. Every property and requirement is different, so access, objectives and any individual arrangements are discussed during the initial conversation.
