Keep Birds at Bay: The Effectiveness of Bird Spikes for Property Protection
Pest birds such as pigeons, gulls, and starlings can cause serious problems for both homeowners and businesses across the UK. From property damage to health risks, the presence of nuisance birds isn't just an inconvenience—it can become a costly issue if not dealt with promptly. Fortunately, one of the most effective and humane solutions available is the use of bird spikes.
We at Shire Pest and Property Care know how to provide long term solutions to bird control in and around your property in [your region], and that we will install bird control spikes that will keep away those undesirable birds from taking over your establishment safely and efficiently.
What Are Bird Spikes?
Bird control spikes, also known simply as bird spikes, are a physical bird deterrent used to prevent birds from landing or nesting on ledges, signs, rooftops, and other structures. These spikes do not harm birds—instead, they create an uncomfortable surface, encouraging them to move elsewhere without causing injury.
The Reason to use Bird Spikes
Humane and Effective: Bird spikes are devised to prevent rather than injure and hence they serve as a long-term and ethical technique of controlling birds.
Accords against Property Damage: Birds may remove the tiles, clog a drainage system, and soak by dropping their feces. Spikes help to get rid of such risks.
Flexible Fitting: The bracket can be fitted to suit any structure including listed buildings, commercial signs or even narrow parapets.
Low Maintenance: The bird control spikes are low maintenance and do not require much maintenance and after they are installed; they will work regardless of the weather conditions.
Ideal for a Range of Bird Species
Bird spikes are particularly effective against pigeons, gulls, and other larger nuisance birds. They can be discreetly fitted to blend into your building’s architecture while providing robust protection.
Are Bird Spikes Adequate to All Birds?
Bird spikes are especially suitable to medium and large size birds like pigeons, seagulls, crows and magpies. They can be less for small birds such as sparrows or starling unless used for other types of bird controls including netting or bird wires.
The first step to taking a specific bird control problem at Shire Pest and Property Care is a complete site survey to identify the best availability of solution according to the problem at hand. Bird spikes in most instances are the part of a comprehensive bird management plan.
Although DIY kits do exist, applications by the professionals in the form of bird spikes provide the placement of the spikes in the most effective location as well as a long-lasting performance. At Shire Pest and Property Care, technicians will evaluate every site on a case-by-case basis to propose the most appropriate bird-deterrent strategy to suit your situation.
