Bird Control

Unlike other pest species birds are mostly welcomed by ‘us humans’. They generally only become a pest when they encroach directly on our property whether that is an office block or a runway. Problems can be caused by birds entering buildings and / or by their foul build up which can carry many diseases and bacteria. Not to mention the unsightly impression bird foul on the side of a building can give.

There are a number of options designed for control against birds. All of these methods are humane and are based on preventing the situation occurring in the first place. They are all forms of proofing against or using specialist scare techniques to move the birds on to another location. Materials used are constructed from plastic or usually stainless steel to ensure an optimum life span.

Netting

By netting an area frequented by birds it completely denies access to them. This can be a small bit of netting over a window ledge to a complete roof being netted to prevent birds from landing on it. This method is nearly always used in highly populated areas. The netting can be supplied in a number of colour variations and will blend into the building surround so well that most of the time it will not even be noticed.

Spike Systems

This is a system mainly used to deter perching on surfaces like window ledges, gutters, signs and parapets etc. They are not designed to harm the birds in any way, they merely make it extremely difficult and annoying for them to land thus they are forced to move on to find an easier option.

Bird Wire

This system is for use on light infestation sites only. Again mainly for the use of ledges etc. Its advantage is that it is much more inconspicuous than the spike systems. The system consists of a thin, sprung wire between set posts at about 6 inches above the ledge.

Scaring Techniques

These are more specialist situations which included forced bird movement by amplified sound of relevant distress bird calls.

Bird Foul Removal

A number of diseases and bacteria can be found in bird foul. As part of our programme we can remove foul including any accessible nests and treat the cleaned area with specialist disinfectant, Px- Ornikil. All cleaning work is carried out with the correct personal protective equipment by our operators.
