Health risks from pest birds in Redditch
Were you aware pest bird droppings are really teeming with numerous pathogens?
Did you know dried pigeon guano carries salmonella, E. coli, and the agent behind ornithosis? This infection spreads through inhaling infected dust or handling contaminated surfaces!
In professional spaces affected by bird infestations, ornithosis represents a specific threat to occupational health.
Redditch food and hospitality operators face up to tight regulatory liability alongside the significant health and safety hazards of guano contamination.
Apart from spreading disease, guano quickly collects inside gutters, across roofing materials, and around drainage points.
Do you sometimes see birds congregating on ledges, parapets, and roof edges before resting? Their messy droppings actually accelerate stonework decay, obstruct gutters, and lead to slippery slip hazards on walkways below!
Ignoring avian pests at a Redditch premises results in worsening structural deterioration, rising guano accumulation, and remediation installations that become steadily more expensive over time.
Whichever winged species arrives, our bespoke systems guard your premises. Enjoy genuine peace of mind. We protect you and your neighbourhood from health hazards associated with birds.
Pest bird species in Redditch
Wild pigeons and seagulls cause the most conspicuous damage on Redditch commercial properties, finding permanent sanctuary upon their flat rooftops and ledges.
These birds pose a periodic hazard, entering roof voids through smaller openings than either species.
Our experts regularly clear guano and nest material ahead of installing fixings. Moved dry guano poses immediate health risks, and discarded nest material quickly attracts secondary infestations to the area.
Which wonderful feathered species do we look after every single day? Take a look!
Feral pigeons
Wild city pigeons gather in high densities across urban zones.
One pair of pigeons produces up to six annual broods. Pigeon populations increase quickly on any structure with quiet ledges or empty roof voids.
When dealing with this issue, we need to understand that pigeons consistently return to their chosen nesting spots, which means temporary dispersal tactics are unable to change their patterns.
How do we manage pigeon control in Redditch? Careful physical exclusion installations keep them perching at all, gently prompting them to find another place!
Seagulls and gulls
Herring gulls and lesser black-backed gulls alongside lesser black-backed gulls have effectively colonised inland areas, and becoming long-established breeding groups throughout Redditch and the greater Midlands.
Forming dense groups on level rooftops, these clamorous birds exhibit hostile behaviour during their reproductive season, which usually spans from April until August.
Having more mass than pigeons, gulls need robust post and wire systems or strong netting over the less robust deterrents employed for standard pigeon control.
We dedicatedly adapt the bird control systems for every single specific gull colony location!
We engineer bespoke solutions and guidance specified to your roof type and colony size in place of providing generic packages and bundles.
Starlings
These starlings frequently represent a annual avian problem within the Redditch region.
You will find they get into roof voids via smaller entry points than pigeons, taking advantage of open ridge tiles, faulty soffits, and damaged fascia boards.
Over the course of a year, starlings roosting within a roof void build up significant amounts of nesting material and droppings.
Bird control solutions in Redditch
How can we provide excellent outcomes? We tailor our entire suite of bird control options according to the specific species, your property type, and the size of the infestation!
We do not give recommendations before personally examining your premises and the specific problematic population.
Would you believe it? Our property surveys are entirely complimentary with absolutely no pressure whatsoever to commit!
Bird netting
As the most effective exclusion method, bird netting secures roof edges, open facades, plant rooms, and structural alcoves to stop birds access to nesting or roosting sites.
Our method pairs UV stable polyethylene net for the relevant species, using 10mm for starlings, 50mm for pigeons, and 75mm for gulls.
Using stainless steel anchor systems helps ensure these fixings are securely tensioned into masonry, steel, or timber.
Once accurately fitted, netting remains almost unseen from the street below, providing a highly subtle yet highly effective bird solution.
Bird spikes
To efficiently prevent birds a landing space, bird spikes are installed to raised edges, parapets, windowsills, pipes, and signage.
Rather than establishing a physical barrier, these systems work by creating the landing experience highly unwelcoming for the birds.
Opt for polycarbonate spikes for heritage and listed buildings to reduce the visual impact of the deterrent installation.
In industrial or business settings, stainless steel delivers outstanding durability, making it the perfect selection when enduring heavy dirt is favoured over aesthetic appeal.
We first uncover the distinctive story of your property, so that our eventual product recommendation is a genuinely perfect match.
Bird wire
By tightening stainless steel wire between sleek posts, bird wire systems smoothly convert exposed ledges, balconies, and roof ridges into extremely insecure landing surfaces.
As the most discreet deterrent, wire elegantly suits commercial and civic architecture where visual appeal is key, whilst also preserving historic facades where fixing to secure spike or netting systems remains highly unsuitable.
Wire provides a highly discreet deterrent for public and commercial buildings with an emphasis on visual appeal. It also safeguards heritage facades where drilling for spike or netting fixings is not acceptable.
Bird free gel
Served in a tidy dish, Bird Free gel remains unobtrusively on any surface in need of defence against unwanted avian intrusion.
Standing at a mere 8mm, who could ever spot it from the ground? Humans will entirely miss its presence, but your local bird population certainly won’t!
Birds see ultraviolet light, so this gel causes the building to look like it is ablaze.
We persuade the birds to move during small or medium infestations.
Bird proofing for vents and entry points
Starlings and small birds easily sneak into quiet roof spaces through gaps in ridge tiles, open soffits, and damaged fascias.
We seal these entry points using stainless steel mesh or correct vent covers, chosen to fit the specific bird species and opening size.
