PGH Bird Control and Prevention Products:
Avishock is an electric track bird deterrent system designed to protect buildings and properties from birds like pigeons and seagulls. It operates by delivering a harmless low voltage electric shock to the bird’s feet, similar to electric fences used for livestock. This method effectively deters birds from areas such as roofs, ledges, windows, parapets, signage, and metal beams and girders. Avishock is advantageous for its long-term effectiveness and can be installed on various surfaces. It’s also fast to install and requires low maintenance. Notably, it’s been proven harmless to birds, making it a humane bird control option
Hawking and falconry bird control is an innovative method for deterring large flocks of birds such as seagulls or pigeons from certain areas. This approach uses birds of prey like hawks or falcons, which are flown through the affected area multiple times over a prolonged period. This process teaches the local bird population that the area is unsafe, encouraging them to find alternative places to nest and feed. The birds of prey are trained to scare off species that are typically their prey. This method is particularly effective in areas where large numbers of people gather, like sports stadiums, which produce a lot of food waste that attracts birds, or at construction sites where birds might build nests and cause disruptions.
Bird Free Gel is a pigeon repellent gel that deters birds using a combination of visual, olfactory, and tactile stimuli. It contains pyranine, which fluoresces under UV light to appear like fire to birds, and peppermint oil, which affects the bird’s olfactory and trigeminal nerves, creating a strong aversion. The gel is also very sticky, deterring birds that touch it. This multi-sensory approach quickly teaches birds to avoid treated surfaces, proven effective with birds learning to stay away within a day of application.
Bird spikes are a physical deterrent used to prevent birds from perching or nesting on surfaces such as ledges, windowsills, and rooflines. They consist of long, needle-like rods attached to a base, which can be fixed to various surfaces. The spikes create an uneven and uncomfortable surface for birds, effectively preventing them from landing. This method is humane and non-intrusive, as it does not harm the birds but simply discourages them from settling in the treated areas. Bird spikes are widely used in urban environments to manage issues related to bird presence on buildings.
Post and wire systems are a bird deterrent method used to prevent birds from perching on ledges, beams, and similar surfaces. The system involves installing posts at regular intervals along the surface, with thin wires strung between them. When birds attempt to land, the instability and discomfort caused by the wires deter them from perching. This method is subtle and less visually intrusive than other deterrents, making it suitable for use on historic or aesthetically sensitive buildings. It’s an effective, humane way to discourage birds without harming them, widely used in urban settings to manage bird-related issues.
Bird netting is a preventative solution used to protect structures from birds. It involves installing a net over areas such as rooftops, balconies, and airways to prevent birds from accessing and nesting in these spaces. The netting acts as a physical barrier, effectively blocking birds without causing them harm. This method is particularly useful for large areas and is favored for its discreet appearance and versatility. Bird netting is widely adopted in both urban and rural settings to manage bird-related problems, offering a humane and effective way to deter birds from unwanted areas.
Bird guano removal is a crucial service for areas heavily affected by bird droppings. Accumulated bird guano can pose health risks, damage structures, and create unsightly and unhygienic conditions. Professional removal services use specialized cleaning methods and equipment to safely and effectively clean the affected areas. These services often include disinfecting the area to eliminate pathogens and odors. Regular guano removal is essential in urban areas with high bird populations, ensuring a clean, safe, and presentable environment for both residential and commercial properties.
Birdproofing solar panels is a specialized service aimed at protecting solar panel installations from bird nesting and the associated damages. Birds, particularly pigeons, often nest under solar panels, leading to debris accumulation, damage to wiring, and reduced efficiency of the panels. Birdproofing involves installing a mesh or similar barrier around the edges of the solar panels, preventing birds from accessing the area underneath. This solution is effective in maintaining the integrity and performance of solar panels, while also ensuring the area remains clean and free from bird-related debris and damage.
