Birds are beautiful, fascinating creatures.
There are occasions however when their presence, either singly or in numbers comes into direct conflict with the interests of modern life.
 
Here are some compelling reasons to act now against pest birds.
 
 
Birds can be pests. They carry disease, eat food intended for human consumption, cause noise pollution with their calls and can create a very real hazard by the accumulation of their droppings.
 

The need for control of certain species of birds can be seen right across the domestic, industrial and agricultural sphere. This requirement has been recognised by government and SAFEGUARD PEST CONTROL is dedicated to the fight against pest bird species.
 
The Flock (whether large or small in number) that are using your building to roost, perch or nest, will attract other pest birds to use it on a regular basis. Two birds today could mean twenty birds tomorrow.
 

Pigeon faeces are very acidic and will corrode the fabric of your building including, UPVC, brickwork, guttering and metal leading to costly repairs and increased maintenance.
 
Faeces on a building are unsightly, detracting from the aesthetic appearance. As you can see here, this beautiful stone pediment is covered in pigeon droppings, which are eating away the delicate stonework.
 

All bird faeces are wet and when they fall directly to the pavement outside your building's entrance, this could lead to a member of the public slipping and being seriously hurt. Unfortunately in today's legal climate an accident could prove very costly to your business.

 
Lastly, and most importantly, it has been proved that faeces contain a number of very harmful pathogens that can be transmitted to man. In addition, feathers and nesting material contain numerous insect pests, such as fleas, flies, beetles and mites. As you scroll through this section we will explain I more detail the seriousness of this problem.
