Eco-Responsible Bird Control for Large Sites

Birds of prey provide the most effective natural deterrent for large-scale bird infestations.

Our licensed falconry teams deploy trained hawks, falcons, and eagles to displace pest birds from airports, agricultural operations, waste facilities, and industrial complexes—permanently altering their behaviour through natural predation pressure.

We also carry out egg and nest removal as part of a comprehensive bird management strategy.

Business Risks of Conventional Bird Control Failure

Sometimes DIY bird control methods or installing stainless steel bird spikes just aren’t feasible. In specific scenarios, the risks are high:

Aviation Strikes

Bird strikes cost airlines $1.2B+ yearly (IATA) with severe liability risks

Crop Losses

Starling and other small bird flocks can destroy 17% of soft fruit yields overnight (DEFRA)

Landfill Penalties

Gulls and other birds can breach waste containment, incurring EPA fines

Bio-Security Breaches

Bird droppings can spread pathogens that lead to diseases in agricultural zones

Bird of Prey Control Approach

  • Tailored Deployment Plans
    We assess each site and deploy trained birds of prey based on activity levels, site layout, and bird pressure.
  • Disruptive Flight Patterns
    Flight times and routes stop nuisance birds from becoming accustomed to the area.
  • Integrated Bird Management
    Includes advice on habitat changes, nest site removal, and reducing food and water sources to discourage return.

No Structural Impact

Requires no physical alterations to the site—no netting, spikes, or permanent fixtures.

 

Natural Deterrent Method

Uses predator presence to shift bird behaviour without chemicals, traps, or noise disruption.
