Anyone who lives in Portland knows that we have tons of Pigeons amongst many other types of birds. If you’re a business owners or property manager then you have almost certainly had to deal with birds roosting and nesting in places that cost you time and money. If you’re a home owner then you probably know how frustrating it can be to have a bird nesting in an inaccessible portion of your eaves or roofline. Whatever the case, our team is here to help.
Bird infestations can pose a significant problem for commercial buildings, causing a variety of issues that can cost businesses time and money. It’s essential to take steps to remove birds from commercial buildings as soon as possible to prevent further damage and protect your business’s reputation.
One of the most obvious ways that a bird infestation can cost your business money is through property damage. Birds, particularly pigeons, can cause significant damage to buildings with their acidic droppings, which can eat away at building materials such as concrete, metal, and wood. This damage can be costly to repair and may even require extensive renovations to fix.
Bird droppings can also pose a health hazard to employees and customers. These droppings can contain harmful bacteria, viruses, and fungi, which can cause a variety of health problems, including respiratory issues, skin infections, and even diseases such as histoplasmosis. The health risks alone make bird removal an important aspect of any building maintenance program.
In addition to the health and property damage concerns, a bird infestation can also damage a business’s reputation. Birds, particularly pigeons, are known for being dirty and unsanitary, and having them around can create an unpleasant and unprofessional environment. If bird removal is not done in a timely manner and birds are nesting or roosting around your property, this can discourage customers from visiting your business and can also lead to negative reviews online, which can damage your reputation and hurt your business in the long run.
So, how can you remove birds from commercial buildings? There are several good bird removal methods, ranging from non-toxic options to more aggressive measures such as trapping and repellent.
One non-toxic bird removal method is to make the environment less hospitable to them. This can be achieved by installing bird spikes or netting around potential roosting areas, sealing off any entry points, and removing any sources of food or water. By making the environment less appealing to birds, they will be less likely to want to roost or nest in your building.
Another option for commercial bird removal is through the use of repellents. There are several types of bird repellents available, including visual and auditory deterrents, taste repellents, and scent repellents. These repellents work by making the environment unpleasant for birds, causing them to look for other places to roost or nest.
If you are dealing with a bird infestation in your commercial building, it’s essential to contact a professional bird removal or pest control company that has experience dealing with bird infestations. They can perform an inspection to determine the extent of the infestation and recommend the best course of action for removing the birds and preventing them from returning.
