Bird control and proofing in London

Pigeon guano is corrosive, blocks gutters and carries genuine health risks for staff and customers. Scaring birds off doesn't work for long — proofing does. We install netting, spike and wire systems and mesh solar panel edges, all within wildlife legislation and with a full clean-down where needed.

In short

How birds treatment works

Bird control uses physical proofing rather than removal: netting across recesses and courtyards, spike or post-and-wire systems on ledges and parapets, and mesh skirting around solar panels. Guano is cleaned and disinfected first, and all work complies with UK wildlife protection law.

Covered by a written guarantee — if the treated pest returns inside the cover period, we come back and re-treat free of charge.

Signs to look for

Do you have a problem?

  • Guano build-up on ledges, signage, balconies or pavement below
  • Nesting material blocking gutters, hoppers and flat-roof outlets
  • Pigeons roosting under solar panels or in roof recesses
  • Persistent noise and mess above shopfronts or entrances
  • Gulls dive-bombing staff or customers during nesting season

Not certain? Send us a photo — we identify it before you commit to anything.

Birds FAQ

What customers ask before booking

Is bird proofing legal?+

Yes, when done correctly. All UK wild birds are protected, so we work within legislation and never disturb an active nest without the right authorisation.

Will proofing damage my roof or solar panels?+

No. Solar mesh clips to the panel frame and roof systems are fixed to specification without penetrating waterproofing.

Do you clean up the guano?+

Yes — controlled removal and biocidal disinfection is included before installation.

How long does bird proofing last?+

Correctly installed netting and spike systems typically last ten years or more, and we offer scheduled inspections.
