Businesses often struggle with pest birds, which are a nuisance at best and a health risk at worst. These birds can damage property, spread diseases, and create an unsightly environment. Pigeons and seagulls, common in urban settings, are typically the most problematic. Removing these birds becomes more challenging due to several factors, including:ย
- Urban Diet: Pigeons typically eat grain and seeds in their natural habitat, but in urban areas, they adapt by scavenging processed foods like leftover takeaways and food scraps from trash bins.
- Breeding: If food is abundant, pigeons can breed year-round, with the highest activity occurring between March and July.
- Nesting: Seagulls are known to return to the same nesting site year after year, making them difficult to remove once theyโve established themselves.
- Longevity: Seagulls can live up to 40 years, which means they have plenty of time to continue breeding during their lifespan.
How to Keep Birds Away
The most effective way to prevent birds from sticking around is by eliminating their food sources. However, in bustling urban environments, this can be difficult to achieve. If birds are becoming a nuisance at your business, several methods can help, including:
- Nesting Barriers: Block off potential nesting areas (e.g., install barriers on window ledges).
- Hide Food: Keep food sources out of sight and inaccessible.
- Secure Trash: Ensure trash bins are tightly sealed, and avoid leaving trash bags exposed.
