by Alex A. KecskesThere are songbirds, lovebirds and pet birds. And then there are pest birds. Birds we can all do without. Birds we don’t want to harm–we just want them to stay away. One way to do that is the subject of this article.

Bird Netting for Facilities Managers

If you’re a facilities or plant manager, you undoubtedly know that pest birds can cost you a ton of money and aggravation . They can easily invade your aircraft hangar, factory or warehouse, gathering by the hundreds in eaves, canopies and other large covered areas. Support beams make ideal landing, roosting and nesting areas for these pest birds. If you don’t keep them out with deterrents like bird netting, you’ll have to contend with all sorts of problems.

Big box warehouses often have pest bird problems. Many are located in rural or semi-rural areas, so birds are in plentiful supply. Unless they are controlled by bird netting, birds will take shelter in these large structures. They wild pests are drawn to the large open garden areas and other doors that are kept wide open all day and most of the evening. The stores also attract pest birds because they offer protection from natural predators. And they offer warm shelter from the elements. But most of all, the stores have plenty of high ceilings with all sorts of nooks and crannies where birds can nest and roost.

Okay, you’ve tried noisemakers and BB guns, waving and shouting–and still the pest birds come. In bigger and bigger flocks. Pooping and nesting and doing all sorts of damage. It’s costing you time and money. If only there was something you could do to keep them out of your area. Something humane, because you really don’t want to hurt the little pests. You just want them to get discouraged and leave your property alone. They’ve caused you so much grief and expense that you’re ready to open your window, stick out your head and yell, “I’m not going to take it anymore!”

You Need Bird Repellent Netting

Growers and farmers know first hand just how much damage pest birds can cause to cornfields, fruit orchards and vineyards. They’ve seen pest birds eat their prized blueberries and blackberries. They’ve watched helplessly as winged pests invaded their barns, stockyards and chicken coops. They’re also painfully aware that bird droppings, bird nests and the mites birds carry pose a serious health hazard, since birds have been known to carry any of 60 known diseases. In fact, most people who have been on the receiving end of pest birds know that sparrows and feral pigeons can carry bacteria causing Salmonellosis. Feral Pigeons have been known to carry Ornithosis, a serious disease that resembles viral pneumonia. Clearly, it’s time for a pest bird deterrent that works. The solution? Bird repellent netting.
