The 1981 Wildlife and Countryside Act legally safeguards every wild bird within the United Kingdom.
Although the relevant legislation firmly prohibits removing nests, interfering with roosting birds, or deploying dangerous deterrents, you still retain legal and reliable means of protecting your property from problem avian populations.
In the still skies of Gobowen, Birmingham Pest Control Co. provides reliable bird control, utilising effective deterrent and exclusion methods that ensure protected birds are never harmed.

Health risks from pest birds in Gobowen
Were you aware pest bird droppings are really teeming with diverse pathogens?
Desiccated pigeon guano harbours salmonella, E. coli, and the pathogen responsible for ornithosis, a respiratory illness acquired by breathing in contaminated dust or touching tainted surfaces.
Were you aware that ornithosis is a major workplace health risk wherever bird infestations are present?
This introduces a layer of official monitoring for food and hospitality establishments within Gobowen, intensifying the major safety and health hazards of guano contamination.
Disease aside, guano builds up at remarkable speed all along gutters, over roofing materials, and near drainage points!
First, the birds collect on ledges, parapets, and roof edges before settling. Consequently, their built-up waste speeds up stonework decay, obstructs gutters, and creates hazardous slip hazards on the paths below.
Neglecting a bird nuisance at a Gobowen property can invite increasing structural damage and building guano, meaning the essential installation job only becomes more expensive as time goes on.
Whatever the avian species, our customised plans help ensure that your property, staff, and occupants remain fully shielded against bird-borne health hazards.
Pest bird species in Gobowen
Relentless pigeons and seagulls create the most obvious destruction upon Gobowen’s commercial properties, claiming flat rooftops and ledges for lasting roosts.
Returning seasonally, starlings penetrate roof voids through openings far narrower than either one requires.
Our experts consistently clear guano and nest material before putting in fixings. Moved dry guano poses urgent health concerns, and discarded nest material quickly invites secondary infestations to the area.
Here is a typical selection of the wide-ranging avian species we handle every day.
Feral pigeons
Wild pigeons truly like to cluster in massive flocks throughout busy city downtown areas!
Rearing upwards of six annual clutches, a single pigeon partnership expands with surprising speed. They soon occupy any structure offering sheltered ledges or vacant roof spaces.
Driven by a strong instinct, pigeons relentlessly return to their chosen sanctuaries, meaning mere spreading tactics will never break this deeply ingrained pattern.
Proper pigeon management in Gobowen depends on physical exclusion systems that fully prohibit alighting, thereby encouraging these birds to find other habitats in another location.
Seagulls and gulls
Herring gulls and lesser black-backed gulls have expanded their presence inland, forming lasting nesting colonies throughout the wider area of Gobowen and the greater Midlands.
Did you realise these loud birds nest on level roofs in dense colonies? Take care, as they grow very hostile during breeding season from April to August!
Due to their higher mass relative to pigeons, gulls need post and wire systems or heavy duty netting rather than the lighter deterrents sufficient for pigeon management.
We accurately adapt our bird control systems for gull colonies to match each particular setting.
Rather than utilising a typical uniform formula, we carefully adapt our expert guidance and final resolution to match your particular roof type and colony size.
Starlings
Starlings definitely count as a annoying time-of-year pest bird in Gobowen!
They enter roof voids through narrower apertures than pigeons, utilising open ridge tiles, damaged soffits, and broken fascia boards.
Nestled quietly within a roof space, a starling roost collects vast, unwelcome quantities of droppings and nesting materials over the season.
Bird control solutions in Gobowen
How can we provide brilliant results? We adapt our entire suite of bird control options according to the specific species, the property type, and the size of the infestation!
We solely recommend solutions after inspecting your premises and reviewing the problem population.
We provide every site survey completely free of charge, with no pressure to go ahead.
Bird netting
As the final exclusion technique, bird netting secures roof edges, open facades, plant rooms, and structural alcoves to prevent birds access to nesting or roosting sites.
Need the ultimate protection? The UV stable polyethylene net offers tailored mesh sizes, with 10mm for starlings, 50mm for pigeons, and 75mm for gulls!
By using stainless steel anchor systems, you can tension fixings into masonry, steel, or timber.
When professionally fitted, netting remains effectively imperceptible from ground level, offering a very discreet yet practical avian deterrent.
Bird spikes
To fully deny landing surfaces, bird spikes are expertly fitted on ledges and similar surfaces parapets, windowsills and adjacent areas, pipes and nearby fixtures, and signage.
These operate by turning the landing surface extremely uncomfortable rather than putting up a solid barrier to the birds.
To safeguard the subtle appearance of period and listed buildings, polycarbonate spikes offer the premier choice for achieving an highly unobtrusive deterrent fitting.
Stainless steel material delivers enhanced durability, making it ideal for industrial and commercial or commercial sites where lifespan under heavy dirt is valued over aesthetics.
We carefully review the particular requirements of your premises prior to advising which relevant product will provide the optimal solution.
Bird wire
Bird wire systems stretch stainless steel wire between posts to form an unstable landing surface across horizontal ledges, balconies, and roof ridges.
Offering a very discreet profile, wire works well with prestigious civic and commercial buildings where aesthetics are of utmost importance. It equally protects delicate heritage architecture where drilling for spike or netting fixings remains completely unsuitable.
This option provides the discreetest deterrent for commercial and civic buildings that prioritise aesthetics. It also safeguards heritage facades where drilling for spike or netting fixings is unacceptable.
Bird free gel
To safeguard any specified surface from nuisance avian behaviour, Bird Free gel is placed within a small dish set on that area.
At only eight millimetres in height, it remains effectively invisible to people on the ground, yet your bird population will definitely notice it.
Birds can see ultraviolet light, which means this gel makes it appear the building appear like it is ablaze.
Where issues are minor or moderate, we use careful methods to encourage the birds to relocate.
Bird proofing for vents and entry points
Sparrows and starlings regularly enter roof voids by exploiting entry points in ridge tiles, uncovered soffits, and worn fascias.
Want these openings secured? We fit stainless steel mesh or purpose-made vent covers matched to the gap size and bird species!
