Pestforce - Bird Spikes

Bird spikes are an effective and relatively simple way of stopping birds from landing on your property. They also prevent them from roosting. They are also a humane method of dealing with bird problems, as they don't actually harm or kill the bird; they just prevent it from perching, and thus are approved by the RSPB (Royal Society for the Protection of Birds) and PICAS (The Pigeon Control Advisory Service). Because of this they are used nationwide and on many of the nation's most famous buildings, as well as ordinary houses and businesses up and down the country.

Pigeon spikes are attached in strips to your property – whether that is window sills, ledges, roofs, pipes, gutters, walls, balconies, signs, CCTV cameras or aerials. They are hard to see, and thus not an unsightly addition to your property.

BIRD PROOFING

Most people wouldn't have the same reaction to seeing a pigeon as they would to seeing a rat, and for that reason problems with birds can often not be dealt with, allowing them to grow. However, birds can be just as much of a pest as rats, in particular carrying a number of diseases which can affect both humans and animals. Whilst most people will have heard of bird flu due to recent news stories, there are in fact more than 60 other diseases which pigeons, starlings, sparrows and geese can transmit to humans. Many birds are protected under the 1981 Countryside and Wildlife Act, which is why it is always best to call in a professional to deal with them. An appropriate and properly installed bird proofing system can provide complete protection and control for a long period. Pestforce have over 35 years of knowledge and experience, and each job will be uniquely tailored according to your individual needs.
