The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 offers a protective legal embrace around each and every wild bird in the UK.
Although the relevant legislation firmly prohibits damaging nests, disrupting roosting birds, or deploying harmful deterrents, you still retain lawful and reliable means of protecting your property from problem avian populations.
Birmingham Pest Control Co. deploys professional bird control in Moseley, using non-harmful deterrent and exclusion methods to safeguard protected birds from injury.

Health risks from pest birds in Moseley
Problematic bird excrement usually harbours a varied array of pathogens.
Dried pigeon guano can harbour salmonella, E. coli, and the harmful pathogen causing ornithosis, a respiratory illness contracted by inhaling tainted dust or touching compromised surfaces.
Initially, we need to recognise ornithosis as a significant occupational hazard in places with current bird infestations.
Did you know that food and hospitality sites, guano contamination triggers strict regulatory compliance on top of critical health and safety hazards?
Apart from carrying disease, guano quickly collects inside gutters, across roofing materials, and around drainage points.
Do you ever spot birds gathering on ledges, parapets, and roof edges before resting? Their messy droppings also speed up stonework decay, obstruct gutters, and lead to slippery slip hazards on walkways below!
Ignoring bird issues at a Moseley property increases property damage, accumulates guano, and means your installation job costs more the longer you wait.
Irrespective of the avian species, our bespoke plans help ensure that your premises, team, and tenants remain completely safeguarded against bird-borne health hazards.
Pest bird species in Moseley
Feral pigeons and seagulls inflict the most obvious harm on Moseley’s commercial buildings. Flat rooftops and ledging offer these pests with lasting roosting shelter.
Returning with the seasons, starlings enter roof voids through spaces far narrower than either one requires.
Before securing any specialist fixings, our technicians diligently cleanse the area of all guano and nest material. Safety is our first priority. Disturbed dry droppings pose severe health risks, whilst abandoned nests quickly attract secondary infestations to thrive.
Please view this selection of the avian species we routinely manage on a daily basis.
Feral pigeons
Wild pigeon populations regularly congregate in considerable concentrations across our city environments.
As a breeding pair of pigeons can rear up to six broods annually, their population multiplies rapidly upon any structure offering undisturbed ledges or unoccupied roof voids.
Did you know pigeons doggedly return to the same nesting and roosting spots? Standard dispersal tactics do nothing at all to disrupt that loop!
How do we master pigeon control in Moseley? Effective physical exclusion installations stop them perching at all, gently encouraging them to choose another place!
Seagulls and gulls
Expanding their territory far inland, herring gulls and lesser black-backed gulls have already become well-established nesters throughout Moseley and the wider Midlands.
Forming dense groups on level rooftops, these noisy birds exhibit hostile behaviour during their reproductive season, which typically spans from April until August.
Due because of their increased mass compared to pigeons, gulls necessitate post and wire systems or heavy duty netting rather than the less robust deterrents enough for pigeon management.
We enthusiastically tailor our bird control systems for each and every individual gull colony location!
We turn away generic, identical packages. In contrast, we adapt our support and your tailored solution around the specific architecture of your roof and the colony size.
Starlings
Starling birds constitute a occasional problem bird within Moseley.
By taking advantage of open ridge tiles, damaged soffits, and broken fascia boards, they access roof voids through spaces narrower than those taken advantage of by pigeons.
Located discreetly within a roof space, a starling roost builds up vast, unsightly quantities of droppings and nesting materials over the season.
Bird control solutions in Moseley
We implement a wide-ranging range of bird control systems, customising our method to the particular species, property design, and overall scale of the infestation.
No proper recommendation is ever suggested until we first of all inspect your site and evaluate the problem issue firsthand.
Guess what? Our property surveys are entirely complimentary with entirely no pressure whatsoever to proceed!
Bird netting
To achieve the most complete protection, bird netting carefully secures roof perimeters, open facades, plant rooms, and building recesses, which reliably blocks access to nesting and roosting sites.
We secure areas using ultraviolet resistant polyethylene mesh, woven to precise dimensions, with 10mm mesh for starlings, 50mm for pigeons, and 75mm for gulls.
Through using stainless steel anchor systems, the fixings are accurately tightened into masonry, steel, or timber.
Once accurately fitted, netting remains virtually unseen from the street below, providing a extremely discreet yet highly effective bird solution.
Bird spikes
To entirely deny landing surfaces, bird spikes are carefully fitted on ledges, parapets, windowsills, pipes, and signage parapets, windowsills and adjacent areas, pipes, and signage.
They deter birds by turning landing surfaces less comfortable instead of physically preventing them.
To protect the delicate visual character of heritage and listed buildings, polycarbonate spikes offer the ideal choice for achieving an highly unobtrusive deterrent installation.
Because of its exceptional resilience, stainless steel is the optimal choice for industrial and commercial or commercial settings where operational longevity amidst significant contamination takes precedence over aesthetic considerations.
What does your location truly need? We find those distinctive details at the outset, ensuring we suggest your completely perfect match!
Bird wire
By utilising tensioned stainless steel wire secured amid posts, bird wire systems establish a non-stable landing surface across level ledges, balconies, and roof ridges.
As the most subtle deterrent, wire elegantly suits commercial and civic architecture where looks is paramount, while also protecting historic facades where fixing to secure spike or netting systems remains highly unsuitable.
In need of the ideal discreet deterrent? Wire is ideal for attractive commercial and civic structures! It is ideal for historic buildings also, entirely avoiding the drilling required for spikes or netting.
Bird free gel
To halt unwanted bird activity, simply place the genius Bird Free gel dish on almost any area you want to protect!
At a mere eight millimetres in height, it is almost invisible to people on the ground, yet your bird population will certainly notice it.
For avian eyes perceiving UV wavelengths, this specialised gel makes the building look to be vividly ablaze.
To deal with slight infestations, we carefully encourage the birds to move to other locations.
Bird proofing for vents and entry points
Starlings and sparrow birds gain entry to roof spaces via open soffits, broken fascias, and spaces in ridge tiles.
Protecting such ingress points involves stainless steel mesh or bespoke vent covers, determined by the specific aperture dimensions and avian species.
To ensure compliance with the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, any exclusion work must be planned outside the active nesting period.
