Bird Control

Why You Need Bird Control for Your Business

Reduced Health Hazards
Birds are known to spread more than 60 transmittable diseases, including Salmonella, histoplasmosis, meningitis and encephalitis. They also carry fleas, ticks, lice and mites.

Prevent Structural Damage
Corrosive bird droppings can erode building finishes, causing costly and ongoing maintenance and repairs.

Reduced Liability
Bird droppings can cause slippery walking and working conditions, leading to potential accidents and lost productivity.

Reinforced Brand Satisfaction
When congregating in large numbers, birds are noisy and can be offensive to customers. Customers can have a negative brand experience if they are pestered by birds while on your property.

Bird Control Options

Orkin’s custom Bird Control programs use scientifically proven techniques to help make your establishment unattractive to birds and reduce current bird problems. Our techniques follow an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach and employ a variety of methods that ensure minimum impact on bird populations and the environment.

Inspection

Your Orkin Man will conduct a detailed site survey to evaluate your bird problem, including feeding and watering locations, roosting, nesting and loafing areas, as well as any potential risk to non-targeted species.

Habitat Modification

Habitat modification discourages nesting and roosting. Exclusion is fundamental to an effective habitat modification program, which may include:

• Repellents
• Physical control
• Electronic control

Mechanical Traps

Exterior traps are a temporary, yet effective, solution for birds that do not have strong homing instincts, such as house sparrows and starlings.

Ongoing Monitoring and Maintenance

Your Orkin Commercial Pest Specialist will conduct regular inspections of your property and equipment installations to evaluate the success of your program, making recommendations and documenting the effectiveness of our solutions.
