Bird deterrent systems

Bird deterrent systems with specific deterrents


The issue of "birds", especially the presence of pigeons and seagulls, is becoming an increasingly serious concern for hygiene and public health, as they are birds with high reproductive performance; an average of 5/6 couplings per year with two eggs per brood.

The places where they find shelter (attics, gutters, arches, windowsills, cornices) and areas infiltrated by the presence of organic substances (roofs, walls) become populated with pathogens and parasites (ticks and mites, and pigeon lice) derived from organic debris (bird droppings and remains). Bacteria spread freely in the air and reach public and private places, contaminating humans. Fecal contamination of the environment, the pulverisation and dispersion of guano, the presence of nests in buildings, sometimes cause irreparable damage and are occasions for the spread and contagion of infectious diseases in humans, such as Salmonella, avian flu, and psittacosis.

  • Useful tips for recognising an infestation

    Recognising the first signs of a serious infestation and implementing an immediate solution can significantly reduce the time needed to effectively solve the pest bird problem. To recognise when you are faced with a bird infestation, you need to assess the following signs: nesting, noise (especially from broods), goods damaged by birds' pecking and droppings, guano accumulations and remnants of nests and feathers that can block gutters and drains.

  • Where to look for signs of the presence of pigeons and pest birds

    Pigeons use spaces in high parts of buildings, such as cornices and roofs, for nesting. Balconies, eaves, chimneys, gutters, air conditioners and pipes are favourite nesting areas. Gulls, in particular, tend to congregate on the flat roofs of buildings.
