In the UK, the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 protects every wild bird.
Under the law, interfering with roosting birds, destroying nests, or applying harmful deterrents is an offence. Nevertheless, strong legal options still exist to protect your property against pest bird populations.
Within Bletchley, Birmingham Pest Control Co. offers professional bird control by using reliable deterrent and exclusion methods that guarantee no harm comes to protected birds.

Health risks from pest birds in Bletchley
Nuisance bird excrement typically contains a diverse array of pathogens.
Were you aware dried pigeon guano carries salmonella, E. coli, and the agent behind ornithosis? This respiratory illness is spread via inhalation of contaminated dust or touching contaminated surfaces!
Avian infestations leave workers subject to the significant occupational health hazard of ornithosis.
This adds a level of official oversight for food and hospitality establishments within Bletchley, compounding the serious safety and health hazards of guano contamination.
Health risks aside, guano accumulates rapidly in gutters, on roof surfaces, and around drainage outlets.
First, birds collect on ledges, parapets, and roof edges before settling. As a result, their accumulated waste speeds up stonework decay, clogs gutters, and causes dangerous slip hazards on the paths below.
Ignoring a bird nuisance at your Bletchley property? You risk further building damage, building up guano, and a vital installation job that becomes pricier the longer you leave it!
Pestered by birds? No matter the species, our excellent bespoke systems reliably protect you, your property, and everyone on site from nasty health risks caused by birds!
Pest bird species in Bletchley
Wild pigeons and seagulls inflict the clearest damage on Bletchley commercial properties, seeking permanent sanctuary upon their flat rooftops and edges.
Coming back with the seasons, starlings enter roof voids through spaces much narrower than either species requires.
Throughout each bird service, the technicians safely clean away guano and nest material before fitting any fixings. This vital preparation reduces the health hazards associated with disrupting dried guano, whilst helping ensure old nesting debris does not cause secondary infestations.
Please view this collection of the avian species we frequently help manage on a daily.
Feral pigeons
Feral pigeons absolutely like to assemble in massive groups throughout busy city downtown areas!
A lone breeding pair of pigeons can rear six broods annually, so populations increase rapidly on any site with sheltered ledges or unused loft spaces.
Driven by a strong instinct, pigeons continually return to their chosen sanctuaries, meaning basic scattering tactics will certainly not sever this deeply ingrained habit.
Definitive pigeon control in Bletchley relies upon physical exclusion systems that stop landing entirely, carefully leading these birds to choose alternative places to call home.
Seagulls and gulls
Spreading their territory far inland, herring gulls and lesser black-backed gulls have now become established nesters throughout Bletchley and the wider Midlands.
You will notice these vocal birds nesting in dense colonies on flat roofs, where they show hostile behaviour during their breeding cycle from April until August.
Due to their greater mass relative to pigeons, gulls require post and wire systems or heavy duty netting rather than the weaker deterrents enough for pigeon management.
Our bird control systems for gull colonies are meticulously tailored to meet the needs of each individual location.
We turn away generic, identical packages. Rather, we adapt our support and your tailored solution around the distinctive architecture of your roof and the colony size.
Starlings
Starling birds are a occasional problem bird within Bletchley.
They infiltrate roof voids through more limited apertures than pigeons, using open ridge tiles, damaged soffits, and broken fascia boards.
Throughout one season, starlings roosting inside a roof space will produce significant amounts of droppings and nesting material.
Bird control solutions in Bletchley
Every refuge requires protection. We design a range of bird control systems, customising each response to the relevant species, the unique structure, and the true scale of the infestation.
No answer is ever provided until we first of all assess your site and assess the troublesome presence directly.
We complete all site surveys free of charge with no commitment needed.
Bird netting
As the most thorough means of avian exclusion, bird netting efficiently shields roof perimeters, open façades, plant rooms, and building recesses to prevent birds access to roosting and nesting sites.
Our system combines UV stable polyethylene net with every species, with 10mm for starlings, 50mm for pigeons, and 75mm for gulls.
Stainless-steel anchor systems secure the fixings directly into masonry, steel or timber.
Correctly installed netting remains virtually hidden from street level, providing a discreet and highly effective bird control solution.
Bird spikes
To effectively stop birds a perching space, bird spikes are fitted to raised edges, parapets, windowsills, pipes, and signage.
Instead of establishing a physical barrier, these systems work by rendering the landing experience extremely inhospitable for the birds.
Choose polycarbonate spikes on heritage and listed buildings to minimise the visible impact of the deterrent installation.
For harsh industrial landscapes where surviving relentless dirt takes precedence over aesthetic elegance, resilient stainless steel remains the ideal choice. It simply endures.
What is your location truly need? We identify those distinctive details initially, ensuring we suggest your utterly perfect match!
Bird wire
To readily deter nuisance pests, bird wire systems employ tightened stainless steel wire between posts, forming an insecure landing surface on flat ledges, balconies, and roof ridges.
As the most discreet deterrent, wire stylishly suits business and civic architecture where looks is essential, whilst also safeguarding historic facades where drilling to secure spike or netting systems remains unsuitable.
First, wire delivers the least conspicuous solution for business and public properties where appearance is important. Secondly, this choice protects heritage sites where drilling for spike or netting installations is unacceptable.
Bird free gel
To discourage unwanted bird behaviour, Bird Free gel is deployed in a small container placed upon any location requiring focused protection.
Measuring a mere eight millimetres tall, it is entirely hidden from human eyes on the ground, yet your resident bird population will definitely notice its presence.
Due to bird sensitivity to ultraviolet light, this specialised gel causes the building to seem as though it were ablaze.
Are you dealing with minor bird issues? We will happily persuade them to relocate!
Bird proofing for vents and entry points
Sparrows and starlings frequently access roof voids by taking advantage of gaps in ridge tiles, open soffits, and damaged fascias.
Protecting the ingress points involves stainless steel mesh or bespoke vent covers, depending on the specific aperture dimensions and avian species.
How do we meet the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981? We time exclusion work outside active nesting seasons!
