Natural Bird Control Methods To Suit Any Site
Birds are protected by the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, making it illegal to kill them or disturb their nests without a license. As such, once birds start making your property their home, it can be difficult to move them away. This can lead to major disturbances, particularly for commercial sites such as train or bus stations, airports, factories and other industrial hubs.

The Dangers Of Pest Birds
Birds are a key part of our ecosystem, and are fine when they are out in the wild. Unfortunately, when they start to nest on buildings and in built-up areas, they can cause problems for humans, including:
- Disturbance: Large pest birds, such as pigeons and gulls, can be particularly disruptive and fight, mate or call to each other on rooftops, which can cause a disturbance.
- Mess: Birds can cause aesthetic issues, as their guano and nesting materials can be unsightly and off putting to potential customers.
- Health Risks: Bird droppings spread diseases and can cause respiratory issues and other health problems if allowed to build-up.
- Slip Hazards: Bird droppings are not just a health issue, but can also be slippery and cause a hazard.
- Further Pest Infestations: Birds can spread parasites such as ticks, fleas and bird mites.
- Property Damage: Bird droppings are acidic and can cause damage to property or equipment, and birds themselves can knock roof tiles off and generally cause expensive damage.
Bird Control Solutions For Homes & Businesses Across Norfolk & Norwich
Bird control is vital for businesses of all types, including farms, agricultural sites, factories, banks, retail outlets, car parks, hospitality providers and more. It can help to stop birds from causing issues and damaging your property and reputation.
As well as bird control systems for commercial sites, we also offer solar panel bird proofing for homes across Norfolk, Norwich and the surrounding area. The danger is that feral pigeons and many other bird species are attracted to solar panels as they offer warmth and shelter. Birds can build nests underneath; acidic droppings can corrode the supports, wires and connectors. Dust, debris and bird droppings will affect the panels’ performance therefore removal of birds from the roof will improve their efficiency. With solar panel bird proofing, you can ensure that your panels are protected and reduce the risk of damage to your roof or valuable solar technology.
Alongside bird control, Acorn Pest Management can also provide domestic and commercial pest control solutions, so we’re the only service provider you’ll ever need.

Bird Control FAQs
Are Wild Birds A Health Hazard?
Birds can be a health risk when they start perching, resting, roosting or nesting on your property. That’s because they can leave behind large deposits of bird droppings, also known as guano. Bird guano can carry a range of diseases, including histoplasmosis, salmonellosis, E. coli, cryptococcosis, and psittacosis, which can spread through the air when bird droppings dry and flake off your property’s external surfaces, such as walls and rooftops. As such, bird problems can cause health risks for many businesses, particularly those in the food and healthcare industries.
What Bird Species Can You Prevent With Bird Control?
While the most common nuisance birds found in the UK are feral pigeons and seagulls, other species, including crows, starlings, sparrows and others can damage your roof and external surfaces by landing, roosting or nesting on them. Acorn Pest Management can help you to find the best quality bird deterrents that will work best for the common pest birds you deal with to ensure your property is fully protected.
What Is The Best Method Of Bird Control?
There are many bird proofing solutions on the market, and the best ones for your property will depend on a variety of factors, including the size of your site, the type of birds that visit frequently and others. Acorn Pest Management’s expert technicians can help design bird control systems using a combination of bird control products, including bird netting, bird spikes, bird wire, falconry and more. We can ensure that you find an effective solution that will deter birds and adjust it if needed to protect your space.
