Bird Proofing Methods

There are various bird restriction methods available, so it is important to contact a professional who can advise on the most suitable technique for you. Normally, a combination of proofing, cleaning, culling and deterrents is required to control the situation effectively.

Our team has many years' experience and JG Pest Control is a fully certified specialist in this industry. Our surveyor will highlight areas of concern and propose the best method of control for your property.

Bird Netting and Mesh

  • Versatile - works for most building types and species
  • Used by ASDA, Sainsbury's and Tesco loading bays
  • Mesh prevents access beneath solar panels and AC units
  • Can be raised over a building for personnel access

Bird Spikes

  • Physical barrier preventing landing on ledges and signage
  • Not harmful - simply deters birds
  • Effective on shop fronts, window sills and protruding ledges
  • Can combine with other methods for stubborn sites

Pin and Wire Systems

  • A discreet alternative to spikes
  • Aesthetically pleasing for listed or sensitive buildings
  • Effective deterrent without harming birds
  • Suitable for railings and parapet walls

Floating Covers and Deterrent Balls

Floating covers and ball deterrent methods work by camouflaging water surfaces - including reservoirs and flood reliefs - to reduce bird activity in and around the area. These are specialist applications suited to large water bodies and industrial water treatment sites.
