Bird Control is an Investment!

Bird Control?Why should we care about pest birds?It seems the latest issue concerning property management and building maintenance companies is Pest Birds.
Every year millions of dollars are spent cleaning up after and repairing the damage caused by pest birds such as pigeons, sea gulls, crows and other urban birds.
Not only are these problems unsightly; pest birds and their feces can spread 60 plus transmittable diseases.
Safety, sanitation and health hazards caused by bird droppings can pose serious liability risks, and left untreated, can lead to accidents and lawsuits.
Bird feces, bird nests and debris can also crate a bad public image with tenants and patrons.
Pest pigeons can cause thousands of dollars of damage a year to buildings, industrial facilities, equipment and machinery.
Individuals, companies and government agencies are tired of spending thousands of dollars a year cleaning up bird feces or repairing the damage that is caused by the birds and their droppings.
Instead they have decided to invest in an Integrated Bird Control Solution.
An Integrated Solution is one that may use several types of bird control products to eliminate the problem birds and their mess.
One product or solution will not always work to get rid of pest birds, especially on large buildings.
It may take several different products and methods to get rid of the pest birds.
Trapping and relocating may be done first to eliminate large infestations of pest birds; then a physical bird deterrent may be applied such as bird spikes, bird netting or electric track systems to keep the birds away.
It is common to have more than one type of product installed on a building.
Bird spikes may be used on ledges and bird netting used under overhangs.
The money saved in cleanup costs and damage repairs is well worth the investment in bird control products.
Most building managers find that they make up the cost within the first year after installation.
Urban Bird Control is becoming a big business in the United States.
Many companies are specializing in bird exclusion installations.
You can also contact a local pest control or animal control company and ask if they install bird control products.
A custom integrated bird control program, once installed can save companies millions in clean-up and maintenance dollars each year.
It will also enhance their public image, clean buildings make a much better impression on customers and patrons than do feces covered ones.
