Bird control products should humanely interfere with bird activity that compromises the health, safety, and functioning of man-made structures or their ability to be maintained. Bird control products keep both humans and birds safe from one another.

Exclusion netting is a type of bird deterrent that is commonly used to prevent small birds such as pigeons or starlings from roosting or nesting in certain areas. While exclusion netting can be effective in some situations, it is not always the best option. At Birdzoff, we offer a range of products that are not alternatives to netting, as they are designed to address different bird problems.

However, we do offer a product called Bird Barrier Optical Gel that has proven to be an effective deterrent for small birds. These round discs work as physical, olfactory, and visual deterrents to prevent birds from roosting or nesting in unwanted areas. If you’re looking for a bird deterrent for small birds, consider the Bird Barrier Optical Gel from Birdzoff.

The first step in selecting a bird deterrent is identifying the bird species causing the issue. This information will help determine the appropriate size and type of deterrent needed to discourage the birds’ unwanted behavior. It’s also important to distinguish between perching and nesting issues, as different deterrents are used for each situation. Perching deterrents typically use physical and visual elements to prevent birds from establishing a perch, while nesting deterrents deflect sticks or create shapes to discourage nest building.

Bird deterrents can also target various senses, including visual, physical, auditory, olfactory, and taste. Visual and physical deterrents are the most effective, followed by olfactory options. Auditory deterrents may work initially, but birds can become accustomed to them over time. If you’re dealing with medium to large birds perching or nesting on industrial infrastructure, consider Birdzoff, which specializes in physical and visual bird deterrents.

The cost of bird control services can vary depending on several factors, such as the type of bird, the structure, and the environment. For smaller bird control jobs, Birdzoff typically offers a single tier of bird control at a quoted price. However, for larger jobs and areas requiring more extensive protection, Birdzoff offers up to three tiers of bird control solutions, with each tier increasing the project’s cost.

Additional tiers may include recommendations for bird deterrents or deterring solutions that extend beyond the initial exclusion area. If you’re interested in learning more about our bird control services and products, contact us to receive a free consultation and explore our offerings.

The best product for repelling an eagle will be different from the best product for repelling a gull, though both products will use the same principle of intersecting the three dimensional space where a bird’s presence is causing problems.

Birdzoff products are designed to solve issues for medium to large birds on industrial infrastructure and equipment. While some Birdzoff products may be used for residential applications, they are most suitable for industrial man-made structures.
