Safe and compliant animal control

We use a range of bird control methods to encourage birds to move on. This can include bird spikes and pigeon spikes to prevent them from resting on particular surfaces. We can also install bird netting and mesh to prevent access to locations. We offer a free survey and quotation service, so you can fully understand the extent of the problem and the steps required to fix it.

Failure to manage a problem with birds can lead to health problems for building inhabitants, infestations, contamination, damage to gutters, damage to building exteriors, noise disturbances and accidents as the result of wet and slippery surfaces. Under the Food Safety Act 1990 you could also be fined if birds are found nesting in your property. You should never attempt to deal with a bird problem on your own, as any actions you take could be in violation of The Wildlife & Countryside Act 1981.

Why bird control is needed?

Vergo Pest Management can provide a range of solutions for bird and seagull control, including bird netting, pigeon netting, bird spikes, and pigeon spikes. Using bird netting and other bird proofing methods to control the infestation of birds in the building might prove costly and result in:

There is a risk of serious illnesses from pigeon droppings and gulls, including Ornithosis, Salmonella, and E. Col. Pigeon and Gull droppings often cause rot to a solar panel, water damage to a car, and corrosion to a building. It is possible that wet bird droppings on the pavement or fire escape create a slipping hazard. Occasionally, Pigeons and Gulls Irritating Noises will roost around your property which can disrupt your peace.

Birds damaging your solar panels?

Solar panels are great for the environment, but they can easily be damaged by birds. Unfortunately, solar panels make an attractive nesting site for birds. This can lead to damaged wires, debris on the panels and increased maintenance costs. Bird proofing your solar panels will encourage the birds to nest elsewhere in a completely humane way. Whatever stage you’re at in the installation process, we can help prevent birds from damaging your investment.
