Our Process
Professional Treatment Process
Site Survey
We assess your property to identify bird species, roosting and nesting sites, entry points and the most appropriate proofing methods for your building.
Bird Spike Installation
Stainless steel or polycarbonate bird spikes are installed on ledges, beams, signs and rooftops to prevent birds from landing and roosting — a permanent, humane deterrent.
Bird Netting
Heavy-duty bird netting is installed to exclude birds from large open areas such as warehouse entrances, roof voids, courtyards and building facades.
Deterrent Systems
Additional deterrents including bird wire systems, visual deterrents and electronic sonic/ultrasonic devices may be recommended for specific situations.
Cleanup & Sanitation
We safely remove bird droppings, nests and debris, then sanitise affected areas to eliminate health risks and odours before installing proofing.
