Why Bird Proofing?
Bird Infestation Will Potentially Spread Diseases and Damage Your Property
Food Safety and Cross-contamination
- Food-borne or food-poisoning bacteria might be spread to humans through poor standards of personal hygiene after contacting droppings.
- Birds can contaminate human food or water directly with droppings or pecking etc
- Birds can spread airborne disease agents - pathogenic microorganisms and dust. Resulting illnesses, generally involving lung disease, can be severe and convalescence may take months, with death a possibility.
Pedestrian Safety
- Droppings are a slip hazard. Even with daily cleaning, pavements with nests above are only safe for a short while before the droppings accumulate again.
Stored Product Insects / Parasites
- Feathers, droppings and bodies can host a wide variety of stored product insects, carrion eaters and mould eaters.
- Bird parasites can bite humans e.g. Pigeon Bug (Cimex columbarius), Bed Bug etc.
Property Damage and Loss of Brand Reputation
- Birds nesting or falling on buildings can cause extensive damage and incur significant renovation and repair costs
- Fouling can smell unpleasant, appear unsightly and deter customers.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to prevent bird stay in my house?
Birds nesting in your home can be a nuisance as they can cause damage and unsanitary conditions. Here are some tips for preventing bird from your home without harming them:
- Appropriate placement of devices such as sequins that cause flashing: Flashing and movable objects can prevent birds from landing to some extent, but the effect may diminish over time.
- Seal Entrances: To prevent birds from returning, it is important to seal any entrances that birds may use to enter your home. This may include sealing cracks and crevices around windows and doors and installing screens or bird netting.
- DIY bird repellents or odorous sprays are not recommended, as they can be harmful to birds and will not significantly help keep birds from approaching your home.
- Seek Professional Help: If you are unable to remove nests or deter birds on your own, you may need to seek help from a professional bird pest control service provider.
What is a good bird deterrent?
A good bird repellent will not harm birds in the first place, and in Hong Kong, harming birds is not permitted by law. Therefore, bird prevention needs to be non-toxic, non-harmful, and highly efficient.
- Bird netting: This is a physical barrier that can be installed on balconies, roofs and eaves where birds may roost or nest. This is an effective way to keep birds out of these areas.
- Bird Repellent Gel: This is an adhesive gel that can be applied to surfaces where birds may land and roost. The gel is harmless to birds, but creates a sticky, unsightly effect on surfaces that birds will avoid.
- Visual deterrents: These include products such as reflective tape, scare balloons and predator lures. They work by creating a visual disturbance that birds find threatening or intimidating.
It is important to note that different species of birds may react differently to different types of deterrents. Therefore, it is recommended to consult a pest control professional to determine the best choice of bird deterrent products for your specific situation.
