Bird of Prey Deterrent
Natural Falconry Deterrents for Open Spaces
Understanding the Problem
For large commercial roofs, agricultural structures, and coastal heritage sites, biological bird control offers an eco-friendly solution. Waterside Pest Solutions utilizes trained birds of prey to establish a natural predator presence, humanely driving away nuisance gulls and pigeons without harm.
Nuisance gulls and feral pigeons cause severe architectural fouling, block drainage systems, and behave aggressively toward the public during nesting season. Traditional netting or spiking isn't always practical on expansive or historic structures.
- Heavy guano accumulation on roofs, walkways, and loading bays
- Aggressive gull behavior toward staff, customers, or school pupils
- Structural damage and blocked gutters caused by large roosting flocks
Why Choose Waterside Pest Solutions
Our Professional Process
Our biological bird control program involves structured predator flying sessions:
- Site Assessment: Identifying flocking habits, roosting areas, and target species numbers.
- Scheduled Falconry Vantage Flying: Flying trained falcons or hawks over the site at key feeding times.
- Behavioral Shift: Conditioning nuisance birds to perceive the venue as a high risk hunting ground.
Long-Term Prevention
Maintain a bird-free facility alongside raptor flying:
- Securing commercial skip bins and outdoor food disposal points
- Combining flying programs with targeted netting in key roosting pockets
- Scheduling pre-nesting flying regimes early in the calendar year
