Bird Proofing
Although most people find birds attractive and pleasant, they can present serious problems when not controlled. Bird droppings are particularly unpleasant, being infested with disease-causing organisms and creating slip hazards. In addition, the droppings are unsightly and can cause serious structural damage to buildings. Nesting materials and feathers often contain many insects which can lead to secondary infestations of properties. Birds cooing and screeching cries such as those of the seagull, cause major unrest in both inland and urban areas and also seaside towns. In addition, birds such as sparrows, starling and pigeons can cause economic losses to food related businesses by fouling and eating the food products being made or stored.

Bird Netting
Once applied correctly nets are virtually invisible from ground level. For more information on Bird Netting, please call or email. Examples of our workThis was a large scale bird proofing job for pigeon proofing on a four storey building. Before any insulation of netting and spiking we had to clean and neutralise bird droppings on the ledges which was approximately one inch thick. Once this was cleaned then we could fix the netting and spiking around the building.

Spike Systems are designed for window ledges, roof ridges, gutters, gable ends and other architectural features. They comprise of a plastic often polycarbonated base into which are fixed stainless steel upright spring wires we stock several different styles which ensures that there is a configuration suitable for every job, the bases can be plugged into the masonry or stuck with a silicone glue where drilling is unsuitable. How the spike system works is as the bird attempts to land or perch they are repelled by the spiking and this prevents them gaining a firm footage and usually fly away and find somewhere else.
This is designed to keep birds from landing on chimney pots and perching it is made from black painted steel and fits on most standard sized chimney pots.
We use bird netting in what we call heavy pressure of birds using parts of buildings used for nesting and night roosting and who are determined to get back in this area. When first called out to a job we carry out a survey and use quality materials and ensured the correctly trained technicians to carry out the installation of netting. The netting can be fitted horizontally to stop birds in open areas such as court yards and also fitted vertically ie: frontage of building etc. We use different size mesh (netting) for different bird species for example for sparrows 19mm, starling 28mm, pigeon 50mm and gull 75mm, and it comes in a number of colours including black, stone and translucent we can also install zips on the netting so you can gain access behind the netting if you require.
