The 1981 Wildlife and Countryside Act provides a statutory regulatory embrace around every wild bird in the UK.
Did you know that interfering with roosts, removing nests, or using harmful deterrents is an offence under the Act? Fortunately, this completely does not leave you unprotected against pest bird populations!
In the calm skies of Chelmsley Wood, Birmingham Pest Control Co. offers reliable bird control, employing effective deterrent and exclusion methods that make sure protected birds are never harmed.

Health risks from pest birds in Chelmsley Wood
Unwanted bird excrement usually carries a wide selection of harmful pathogens.
Desiccated pigeon guano harbours salmonella, E. coli, and the pathogen triggering ornithosis, a respiratory illness caught by inhaling contaminated dust or touching tainted surfaces.
Ornithosis represents a significant occupational health hazard within occupational environments affected by avian infestations.
Chelmsley Wood food and hospitality operators face up to strict regulatory risk together with the serious health and safety dangers of guano contamination.
Health risks aside, guano builds up fast in guttering, on roof coverings, and around drainage outlets.
Before getting to roost, birds collect along ledging, parapets, and roof edges. Below them, accumulating debris silently hastens decay in the stonework, blocks gutters, and transforms the walkways below into dangerously slick hazards.
Neglecting avian pests at a Chelmsley Wood premises causes compounding structural deterioration, rising guano accumulation, and remediation installations that become steadily more expensive over time.
Whatever winged species turns up, our bespoke systems shield your premises. Enjoy real peace of mind. We safeguard you and your community from health hazards linked to birds.
Pest bird species in Chelmsley Wood
Which birds deface Chelmsley Wood’s commercial premises the most? Seagulls are to blame, utilising flat roofs and ledges for perfect, all-year-round roosting shelter!
Returning seasonally, starlings penetrate roof voids through gaps far narrower than either species requires.
Prior to securing any specialist fixings, our technicians thoroughly cleanse the area of all guano and nest material. Safety is our first priority. Disturbed dry droppings create severe health risks, whilst abandoned nests quickly invite secondary infestations to thrive.
Here is a representative range of the varied avian species we look after every day.
Feral pigeons
Feral pigeons congregate in high concentrations in city zones.
Did you realise pigeon pairs can hatch up to 6 broods each year? Their numbers increase incredibly fast on any property with undisturbed shelves or roof voids!
When dealing with this issue, we need to understand that pigeons consistently return to their chosen nesting sites, meaning brief displacement measures are unable to alter their habits.
How do we tackle pigeon control in Chelmsley Wood? Careful physical exclusion installations keep them settling at all, effectively nudging them to look for another home!
Seagulls and gulls
Did you notice that herring gulls and lesser black-backed gulls have come inland? They are currently nesting well across Chelmsley Wood and the wider Midlands!
Gathered in thick colonies atop flat roofs, these clamorous birds turn extremely hostile during their breeding season, a turbulent period running from April until August.
With their significant weight, gulls require formidable post-and-wire systems or heavy duty netting. Lighter pigeon deterrents simply just fall short here.
We thoughtfully tailor our bird control systems for gull colonies to suit each particular setting.
Why choose standard packages? We carefully customise our advice and your best solution to match your precise roof type and colony size!
Starlings
With the changing seasons, starlings reappear to Chelmsley Wood as nuisance pest birds.
They slip into roof voids through even smaller gaps than pigeons can, swiftly using open ridge tiles, damaged soffits, and broken fascia boards!
Over the course of a year, starlings roosting within a roof void accumulate significant amounts of nesting material and droppings.
Bird control solutions in Chelmsley Wood
We methodically pick from our extensive range of bird control procedures, customising each solution to the target species, the building structure, and the size of the infestation.
We only give specialist guidance after personally examining your actual site and the particular group.
Each of our site surveys is entirely complimentary and carries totally no commitment to proceed.
Bird netting
To provide total exclusion, bird netting blankets roof perimeters, open facades, plant rooms, and building recesses. This protects everything, successfully denying access to nesting and nesting sites.
We secure spaces using ultraviolet resistant polyethylene mesh, made to set dimensions, applying 10mm mesh for starlings, 50mm for pigeons, and 75mm for gulls.
Durable stainless steel anchor systems safely tighten these fixings into stonework, metal, or wooden frames.
Once correctly fitted, the netting remains practically hard to see from the street, providing a extremely subtle and effective bird deterrent.
Bird spikes
To fully deny landing surfaces, bird spikes are expertly fitted on ledges parapets and similar features, windowsills, pipes and signage, and signage.
Instead of physically barricading the avian guests, they simply make the landing experience extremely disagreeable.
How do you protect valuable heritage and listed buildings discreetly? Outstanding polycarbonate spikes are the ideal solution for a fully invisible defence!
Stainless steel delivers superior durability, making it well suited for industrial and commercial or commercial sites where lifespan under heavy dirt is emphasised over aesthetics.
To assist you in making the most suitable choice, we thoroughly evaluate your specific space before recommending the most appropriate product.
Bird wire
By making use of tensioned stainless steel wire secured among posts, bird wire systems establish a structurally unstable landing surface across level ledges, balconies, and roof ridges.
As the most subtle deterrent, wire seamlessly suits business and civic architecture where appearance is key, whilst also preserving historic facades where fixing to secure spike or netting systems remains particularly unsuitable.
Offering an almost invisible defence, wire elegantly maintains the character of notable civic and business properties. It effectively protects historic facades where drilling for spike or netting installations is simply not feasible.
Bird free gel
To halt unwanted bird activity, just position the brilliant Bird Free gel dish on any area you want to protect!
Standing at a mere 8mm in height, it stays virtually unnoticeable from ground level whilst being clearly perceived by the local bird population.
Because wild birds perceive ultraviolet wavelengths, this specialised gel causes the surface appear to be aflame.
In cases of moderate avian activity, we utilise gentle discouragement to encourage their departure.
Bird proofing for vents and entry points
Starlings and sparrow birds get access to roof spaces via open soffits, broken fascias, and spaces in ridge tiles.
We close off these entry points using stainless steel mesh or correct vent covers, picked to match the relevant bird species and opening size.
To guarantee full adherence with the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, you should properly schedule any exclusion work outside the active nesting period.
