Canberra Bird Pest Control
Canberra has some of the most beautiful birds in the world. The lower slopes of Mt Ainslie, Mt Majura and Black Mountain are popular bird-watching spots. But unfortunately, birds can cause destruction and be an annoyance to homes and businesses in the city and suburban areas.
Trying to scare birds away will cost you time and labour. DIY methods are not tailored to the bird problems we have in Canberra. They’re either a short term fix, don’t work or could actually harm the bird.
Our technicians are regularly called to discourage Indian mynas, pigeons and swooping Magpies away from businesses and homes. We have simple, yet effective solutions to deter birds from nesting and roosting on your property.
While some species are native, many nuisance birds are introduced. If you have birds returning to your property, ask a professional to install discreet bird proofing.
Birds can cause problems for homes and businesses in Canberra
Parks, farms and rivers attract various native and migratory birds to homes and businesses in the city. Problems occur when birds start to nest close to properties or settle in large numbers. Even one ibis bird can be a nuisance, especially on bin night.
Bird problems range from the odd swooping to financial property damage.
Birds can damage property
Nests can block drain pipes, damage solar panels and wiring. Birds can even dislodge roof tiles to enter the roof void. Once in the roof void, their faeces and water leakage cause further damage to your roof space and insulation. Some birds, such as cockatoos, can break off wood and other materials with strong beaks.
Bird droppings carry diseases
Bird droppings contain uric acid, which eats away at paint and other building material. If you have birds roosting together regularly at the same location, the droppings can cause damage, not to mention look unattractive. Bird droppings can affect businesses, especially hospitality venues.
Birds can carry diseases
Mites, lice and bacteria can be spread to humans through birds. Salmonella and E.Coli bacteria can be passed to humans through bird droppings or nests. Hospitality businesses in Canberra need to be aware of bird behaviour, as a disease outbreak may affect their reputation. Birds also attract insects, which can cause other problems.
Aggressive birds
Magpies and plovers swoop during the spring nesting season. Kookaburras and cockatoos can be quite brazen when it comes to stealing food from your plate.
How we stop nuisance birds from returning to your property
Our bird deterrents are not used to harm the animal.
First, we perform a site analysis to check nesting and roosting areas. We target places where birds congregate together. These areas may be under eaves, along beams or solar panels.
Mesh along the sides of solar panels can deter birds from enjoying the shade and nesting.
Durable, UV resistant netting can stop birds from landing on larger areas, such as courtyards, play areas or car parks. We tailor the net to suit your situation.
High-frequency noises deter circling birds that humans can’t hear.
