Why is Bird-Proof important?

Effective bird-proofing solution denies Pigeons and small critters access to roof overhangs, solar panels, and other structures where they dwell, roost, or reproduce. During this time, bird droppings continue to accumulate. Bird droppings are acidic and will destroy roofing materials. Furthermore, bird droppings carry some 60 transmittable diseases hazardous to humans and pets.

In conclusion, an effective bird control system can help evict Pigeons from the roof and under solar panels. Additionally, bird-proofing prevents the spread of diseases and property damage.

What are some products installed to control birds?

When it comes to flat surfaces such as parapet walls, roof peaks and edges, and building signs, we suggest electric bird tracks or bird spikes. Similarly, if the problem exists on rooftops and under solar panels, Optical Gel and PVC-coated, Galvanized mesh are recommended.

Why Consider Bird Control Solutions?

• Bird droppings are acidic and can permanently stain and corrode building materials and vehicles.
• In warehouses and outside eating areas, birds can contaminate food production and inventory when they nest in these facilities.
• Routine disinfection and cleaning of bird droppings are costly to businesses.
• Nests can clog drains and pose a fire risk near lighting, ignition, or heating sources.
• Bird droppings left unattended can cause slips and falls and possible lawsuits.

Pigeons will develop sentimental attachments to your building if allowed to nest or roost on roofs and under solar panels. As a result, it becomes harder to get rid of them. 

Do you have a two-story home with overhangs or recently installed solar panels? 

These homes are ideal for Pigeon infestation. Avoid bird infestation by being proactive. Contact your bird-proofing installer as soon as possible, before droppings accumulate. Bird droppings clean-up can be costly due to the hazards of droppings.
