Bird and Pigeon Control and Removal Services in Geraldton
Like most pests, birds hang around human habitats because of food and safety from predators. Most birds aren’t a pest as such until there are a lot of them, and their droppings and feathers start to become a health hazard. Some birds do carry dangerous diseases like toxoplasmosis, histoplasmosis and some others.
At CFPMS we can safely deter birds without killing them all only for others to return, by using our experience based on the bird problem you have, we will deter them by applying various prevention methods in combination if required until they are gone for good. Some birds are protected and killing them isn’t the best solution to an infestation anyway.
Bird and Pigeon Prevention Methods
CFPMS only use environmentally friendly prevention methods like the following:
- Bird Mesh or Netting - Made for polyethylene string and secured using steel hardware this works very well on balconies, windows, garden areas and HVAC units etc
- Stainless Steel Spikes - Perfect on ledges, lights and pipes that are harmless deterrents that just prevent birds from landing and they are discreet too
- Shock Tracks - These low-profile electrified tracks are nearly invisible and won’t kill the birds, merely prevent them from landing (birds have a good memory)
- Sonic Bird Chasers - Great for large outdoor areas these devices broadcast distress and predator calls that work on 22 different species of bird. Solar powered they are intended for orchards etc
- Repellent Spray - This targets the nervous system and doesn’t cause them harm, it frightens them away and is perfect for nests or loft areas
Bird Proofing Solar Panels
Birds can cause a great deal of damage to solar panels as well as prevent them from performing optimally. Their faeces are acidic and can damage the panel’s surface over time. We use a specific mesh designed for panels to prevent the birds from landing and damaging your panels.
Why is Bird Control Required?
- Birds can nest inside and outside and sit in multiple locations exciting faeces
- Carry some diseases as well trigger allergies and asthma
- Their droppings can cause damage to panels, signs, windows, balconies etc
- Droppings become a health hazard, especially to businesses
- Some birds can become hostile, especially when nesting near humans
Bird Management Process
Everything starts with an inspection by one of CFPMS’s experts to identify the problem fully. We will carry out a full damage-free inspection and remove any nests if possible. Then we will employ a combination of the above treatments above to manage the situation so that over time birds are minimised or effectively put off completely from your property or business. We’ll also leave you with a plan of prevention tips to help in the future and ensure a bird-free life.
