BIRD CONTROL FOR FISH HATCHERIES & INDUSTRIAL PONDS

Proper bird control protection for your industrial water facility is vital for preventing costly shutdowns, fines for harming protected wildlife, and maintaining regulated operations

WHY BIRD CONTROL IS VITAL FOR INDUSTRIAL PONDS

​Industrial ponds such as fish hatcheries, aquaculture and wastewater treatment facilities face severe financial and operational threats from uncontrolled bird populations. Without proper bird control, facilities experience devastating losses that can threaten business viability. 

Annually, businesses experience 33-95% fish stock losses from bird predation, and $3,518-$4,060 in economic losses per acre. While many baitfish farmers spend around $250/acre annually attempting to scare off birds themselves, they still experience losses of up to $240,000 per farm in severe cases.

​​​

These industries can experience direct predation losses and face disease and contamination without bird control:

  • Parasitic diseases spread between facilities

  • Water quality degradation from bird waste

  • Up to 60 viral diseases and bacterial infections found in bird droppings

  • Fish consumption by pest birds such as herons, cormorants, and pelicans

  • Stress-induced mortality from bird harassment

  • Damaged broodstock that affects reproduction & disrupted feeding patterns reducing growth rates

Professional bird abatement can protect not only your profits and your product, but also your reputation, and is proven to be a more cost-effective solution longterm.
