Four reasons why you need to take control of that bird problem

Birds are not typically associated with dangerous pests but they can become problematic in the wrong location or in large numbers. Many business establishments grapple with bird control issues on a daily basis when pigeons or gulls begin to roost on their property in large numbers. Bird pests not only become a nuisance but they can cause serious damage to property, staff, customers and a business’ reputation.

Professional deterrent services can provide effective and discreet solutions to your bird problem, such as irritating bird sounds.

Why do you need to take control of your bird problem?

1. Structural damage to property

Bird debris such as feathers and nesting materials can block guttering and degrade roofing materials, which can lead to internal leaks and associated maintenance costs. Bird droppings are also particularly corrosive and can damage roofing, building materials and plant machinery.

2. Bird droppings are more than just unsightly

Bird droppings cause a host of problems apart from defacing property and vehicles. They can create serious slip and fall hazards for staff and customers. They also spread diseases such as salmonella and E coli.

3. Secondary insect infestations

Birds attract mites, fleas and ticks so a large population of birds on your property brings additional pest problems. Blocked guttering can also lead to mosquito infestation which carries its own health risks.

4. Territorial behavior

Bird populations do not have to be large to display aggressive behavior. Birds such as pigeons and black birds become very territorial when nesting and will attack any passers-by.
