Health risks from pest birds in Broadstone
Faeces from pest birds frequently harbour a diverse selection of harmful microorganisms.
Dehydrated pigeon guano harbours salmonella, E. coli, and the pathogen that causes ornithosis, a respiratory disease caught via breathing in tainted dust or physical contact with infected areas.
In professional spaces compromised by bird infestations, ornithosis represents a specific threat to professional wellbeing.
This adds a level of regulatory monitoring for food and hospitality establishments within Broadstone, worsening the significant health and safety hazards of guano contamination.
Apart from pathogenic hazards, guano swiftly collects within guttering, over roofing components, and around drainage exits.
Before nesting, avian species habitually gather upon architectural projections, parapets, and rooflines, dropping guano that directly accelerates the deterioration of stonework, obstructs drainage gutters, and produces dangerous slip hazards on the pedestrian footpaths below.
Ignoring bird issues at a Broadstone property worsens property damage, collects guano, and makes sure your installation job costs extra the longer you delay.
Pestered by birds? Regardless of the species, our expert bespoke systems reliably protect you, your property, and everyone onsite from nasty health risks caused by birds!
Pest bird species in Broadstone
Urban pigeons and gulls cause the most visible harm on Broadstone’s commercial buildings. Level rooftops and ledges give these pests with permanent roosting shelter.
Returning seasonally, starlings enter roof voids through gaps much narrower than both requires.
Our experts regularly clean away guano and nest material prior to fitting fixings. Moved dry guano creates immediate health risks, and discarded nest material rapidly invites secondary infestations to the area.
Here are some of the bird species we manage every day.
Feral pigeons
Wild pigeons absolutely love to assemble in huge flocks throughout busy city centres!
To start, a single breeding pair of pigeons can produce six clutches annually, which enables their population to increase quickly on properties with protected ledges or roof spaces.
Drawn by a powerful instinct, pigeons continually reclaim their chosen sanctuaries, meaning basic spreading tactics will never disrupt this deeply ingrained pattern.
How do we master pigeon control in Broadstone? Brilliant physical exclusion installations stop them perching at all, effectively nudging them to find another spot!
Seagulls and gulls
Herring gulls and lesser black-backed gulls have spread their presence inland, establishing permanent nesting colonies throughout the wider area of Broadstone and the wider Midlands.
Creating dense groups on level rooftops, these noisy birds exhibit aggressive behaviour during their reproductive season, which typically spans from April until August.
Since gulls are considerably heavier than pigeons, you have to implement post and wire systems or heavy duty netting rather than weaker pigeon control methods.
We enthusiastically tailor our bird control systems for every individual gull colony location!
Why settle for one-size-fits-all packages? We expertly customise our advice and the best solution to suit your precise roof type and colony size!
Starlings
Starlings surely rank as a troublesome time-of-year pest bird in Broadstone!
By exploiting open ridge tiles, deteriorated soffits, and broken fascia boards, they enter roof voids through gaps narrower than those utilised by pigeons.
Starlings roosting inside a roof space build up vast quantities of droppings and nesting materials over a single season.
Bird control solutions in Broadstone
How do we achieve outstanding results? We adapt our complete suite of bird control options based on the particular species, the property type, and the extent of the infestation!
We never provide advice prior to personally assessing your premises and the specific affected population.
We offer every site survey at no cost, with no pressure to proceed.
Bird netting
To achieve the highest level of protection, bird netting systematically secures roof perimeters, open facades, plant rooms, and building recesses, which successfully blocks access to nesting and roosting sites.
Our expert UV stable polyethylene net is meticulously sized for each species, fitting 10mm mesh for starlings, 50mm for pigeons, and 75mm for gulls.
Employing stainless steel anchor systems makes sure these fixings are securely tensioned into masonry, steel, or timber.
Correctly installed netting stays virtually unseen from the street, offering a low-profile and highly effective bird control solution.
Bird spikes
How do we prevent annoying landing spots? We fit bird spikes onto ledges, parapets, windowsills, pipes, and signage!
These function by causing the landing area feel uncomfortable, gently deterring the birds instead of physically obstructing them.
To preserve the delicate aesthetics of period and listed buildings, polycarbonate spikes offer the preferred choice for achieving an remarkably discreet deterrent setup.
For punishing industrial landscapes where withstanding relentless dirt takes precedence over aesthetic appeal, resilient stainless steel remains the most suitable choice. It just lasts.
To assist you in making the best choice, we thoroughly evaluate your specific space before recommending the most suitable product.
Bird wire
To readily deter unwanted pests, bird wire systems utilise tensioned stainless steel wire between posts, creating an unstable landing surface on horizontal ledges, balconies, and roof ridges.
Offering a very subtle profile, wire works well with prestigious civic and commercial buildings where aesthetics are paramount. It equally preserves delicate heritage architecture where drilling for spike or netting fixings remains totally improper.
This option provides the discreetest deterrent for civic and commercial buildings prioritising visual appeal. This also safeguards historic facades where drilling for spike or netting fixings is not acceptable.
Bird free gel
To prevent unwanted bird activity, simply and easily position the brilliant Bird Free gel dish upon whichever surface you want to protect!
Standing a modest eight millimetres in height, it is fully hidden from human eyes on the ground, yet your resident bird population will definitely notice its presence.
Because birds see ultraviolet light, this clever gel makes for the building appear as if it is completely on fire!
In instances of moderate avian presence, we use mild discouragement to prompt their departure.
Bird proofing for vents and entry points
Typically, starlings and sparrows access roof spaces through compromised ridge tiles, open soffits, and damaged fascias.
Safeguarding these ingress points from avian pests utilises stainless steel mesh or bespoke vent covers, picked according to the aperture dimensions and the specific species.
