Top Five Most Asked Questions
About Bird Control
01 Are bird control methods harmful to the birds?
All our bird abatement methods are humane. The products used are specifically designed to deter birds from nesting, perching, or roosting on your building, or exclude them from areas of the building entirely. We do not trap, poison, shoot or otherwise harm the pest birds on the buildings we treat for bird control problems when we use the highest industry standard products to effectively keep birds away from your building.
02 Why remove the birds-are they dangerous?
Bird droppings carry several diseases that are harmful to employees and customers alike. A bird infestation is unsightly and bad for business, and it's also a serious problem for the structural integrity of your building; bird droppings are highly acidic and corrode away paintwork, stone, and metal, and carry airborne pathogens that are highly unsafe to breathe in. Nesting materials can also be a safety hazard if birds have made a home around HVAC, electrical wires, or solar panels.
03 Is your work guaranteed?
We offer a five year performance guarantee on all Bird Barrier installations. Most bird control installations, if left undisturbed, will last ten years or more. Our bird control product suppliers guarantee their products for a minimum of five years and we offer an installation warranty to ensure your confidence in that guarantee. Our bird control products are stuck on buildings, exposed to the elements 365 days a year–sun, wind and rain–with zero maintenance required.
04 Are the products invisible?
All our bird abatement installations are low in visibility. Our goal is to provide effective bird control with minimal impact on the aesthetics of the structure that we are treating. When done right, a bird abatement installation goes entirely unnoticed by the general public. Did you know that the balcony overlooking the Washington Monument on the US Capitol Building in Washington DC has a large panel of bird netting covering it? This balcony, featured on the news almost every night, underneath the Capitol dome, was treated a few years ago for sparrow and starlings by Nation Wide Bird Control. A 100’ x 50’ panel of ¾” mesh bird net was installed over the entire face of the area. Very few people, even tourists close to the building, notice the net.
05 When should I hire a professional?
Minor pest bird problems can grow quickly. Consider hiring professional bird control experts before the problem has grown into an infestation, especially if the birds are nesting in hard to reach places. Birds are clever and can nest in any high up, small space, so most DIY methods will only last for so long.
