Bird netting isn't just available for commercial properties. It can be installed in private homes too. As you will see from the images below the white net and coated wire blends into the background very well.
This netting was installed to detter swallows from nesting in the eaves.

We were recently asked by a home owner to help with a Gull problem in Grangemouth. The Gulls were using the ridge tiles as a resting place. Apart from the continual noise this can also become a health hazard due to the build up of droppings.
Our solution was to install Gull deterrent spikes along the ridge. This has successfully moved the Gulls on without harming them.

Strathearn Pest Control was recently chosen as the approved contractor to carry out the bird deterrent work at a franchise of Subway in the Falkirk area.
We were called in due to pigeons roosting above the main sign outside the shop entrance. This was easily rectified by one of our experienced technicians who installed bird deterrent spikes above the sign.

Recently a Stirling based business chose us as the approved contractor to carry out the installation of bird netting to prevent birds nesting above a high risk area.
As you will see from the photos below the net was a reasonable size measuring around 15m x 15m and had to be installed on the underside of the canopy. An ideal job for our IPAF trained technicians.

We were recently chosen as the approved contractors to carry out rat control at a farm in Perthshire. The levels of rodents at the farm had got out of control. After a few treatments by one of our experienced technicians we quickly brought the infestation under control.
These photos show some clear signs of rodent activity at the farm, gnawing, tracks and footprints.
If you have a rodent infestation and would like us to discuss the options available to you please contact us now on freephone 0800 0283 703 or click here to visit our contact page.
As part of our bird control services we are required to carry out various jobs including the installation of bird netting / spikes on the tops of buildings.
Due to the height of the structures ladders are often un-suitable, therefore we use a MEWP (Mobile Elevated Working Platform) to carry out this work safely.
To keep us up to date with regulations we have to re-sit the IPAF (International Powered Access Federation) test every five years. In the picture below are Robert Wilkie and John Thow carrying out the training to renewing their certificates.
This week we have been working in Perth on a bird prevention job. The job involved the removal of approximately 4 tonnes of extremely wet pigeon guano.
Once this had been completed we installed bird deterrent spikes to prevent the birds from returning to the site.
The pigeon guano had built up over many years and as you can see from the photo it wasn't very enjoyable.
