Pigeon Proofing

June 22, 2017 by MERSEYPEST 155 Comments

Pigeon Proofing

Pigeon Proofing

Contractors have been working painting the side of a group of shops and businesses and found 3 or 4 well established pigeon nests. Each of the nests had pigeon chicks in various stages of development.

The project manager asked us to remove the birds and nests and clean the area.

We also added temporary netting to prevent the birds getting back before the work was finished. More permanent netting will be put up to prevent the birds getting re-established.

Phone us for quotes on pest control solutions.

A Common Problem in Liverpool and Wirral

November 15, 2015 by MERSEYPEST 66 Comments

Pigeons Liverpool and Wirral

A very common problem in both Liverpool and Wirral is the feral pigeon. On streets close to community hubs and shops pigeons will find roosting and nesting sites.

This picture shows Mike fixing metal proofing spikes to the top of a bay window. The gap between the window and the lower edge of the eave provides a perfect place for pigeons to nest.

They nest in areas such as this as it provides safety and security and is away from the worst of the weather. Before they became a pest species in towns and cities they would roost on cliff faces.  Sites like these are the perfect substitute.

We can provide low cost proofing solutions to any building. Phone us for details and a quote.

Pigeon Poop

Now I know most people think that pest control is a job full of glamour so to dispel that myth I’ll show you one of the yucky (but still not the yuckiest) jobs….

This customer has pigeons nesting on his roof. They have created a huge amount of waste that is squirted on to the roofs below. Using a steam cleaner and a bit of elbow grease they are scrubbed clean.

If you want us to carry out any cleaning, proofing or any other pest control treatments for you please phone us to get the best value treatments.

Old Bird Proofing Failing

September 9, 2015 by MERSEYPEST 401 Comments

failed bird proofing pest control liverpool

Bird proofing is normally good for 20 plus years but this proofing has not lasted that long to due to being only spiked for the leading edge of the bay window. The rest of the window has had balled up chicken wire pushed in.

This has become compressed over time or possibly by the pigeons activity to become a suitable nesting site again.

On a bay window like this we strip off all the old proofing and spike the entire flat edge. This provides the pigeon no possible place to nest.

When we carry out our proofing work we always make sure we fully disinfect the area after the old proofing is removed. This kills all avian pathogens and parasites.

This is a Larsen trap. It is used to control problem magpies. In this case the magpies have been stealing eggs from free range chickens. The trap is baited with eggs and is checked daily both by myself and the customer. The trap has a bowl of drinking water for any magpies that are trapped.

Starling Nest Site

Pest Control Liverpool, Wirral, Warrington and Chester.

pest control liverpool

The corner of this house has become home to a family of starlings. They are a rowdy and noisy neighbour to have. The homeowner wants rid sooner rather than later.

The birds cannot be moved until after the birds/chicks have left the nest. The chicks do fledge quickly but the adults can start another clutch of eggs in the same year. Carefully monitoring of the nest is required to make sure the birds are out before it can be cleaned and proofed to prevent further access/usage.

Pigeons

April 26, 2014 by MERSEYPEST 2,380 Comments

IMG_0494

Pigeons are pretty careless when it comes to laying eggs. This yard area had many just laid on the floor. When the chick hatches they do build a basic nest/pile. Any area which is disused can quickly become infested with pigeons and their nests. We offer both cleaning and proofing to rid problem pigeons.
