Seagull & Pigeon Bird Netting
Seagulls and Pigeons will gladly settle on any available roof, gutter, balcony, or even in a gutter drain, and if you ignore them, they will cause expensive damage. Not to mention that they are big carriers of some nasty diseases, so their droppings are potentially hazardous, and slippery after rain.
Commercial property owners, Pigeons and Seagulls are an unsightly health and safety nightmare, that may prove bad for business, and possible legal action.
Some flock numbers may be up to 500 or more as they are programmed to return home to roost every year to the same location.

What is Bird Netting?
Bird netting is a method of bird proofing that deters Seagulls & Pigeons and other pest birds from perching and nesting on buildings. It is widely used in urban areas such as throughout Dublin, that provides a long term, effective bird control solution.
Bird netting comes in different shades and sizes and is typically made from polyethylene wire, a highly durable material that can be fireproofed if necessary. It is weather and UV proof and comes in a range of mesh gauges depending on the species of bird or birds it is required to deter. It is stretched to create a tense barrier and is held in place with high-quality steel fittings.
Netting can be fixed to roofs, facias, ledges, eaves, and chimneys to form an impenetrable barrier to seagulls and pigeons and other pest birds.
How Effective is Bird Netting?
Bird netting creates a taut mesh barrier to stop birds from perching on buildings, or AHU particularly on flat roofs. It is also used at entry points to buildings to stop pigeons from getting in. Most birds will find it almost impossible to land on netting, and although they are persistent creatures of habit.
It is important to note that bird netting is a deterrent method of pest management and can’t be used to deal with an existing bird problems. Central Pest Control offers a wide range of humane pest control services.
