Bird pest control that protects your property

Pigeons and seagulls aren’t just a nuisance — fouling is corrosive, creates slip hazards and blocks gutters and vents. Left alone, a small roost becomes a colony, and the repair bill grows with it.

Elis bird pest control stops the problem at source with the right deterrent for your building, installed to last. Our avian specialists survey the site, identify exactly how and where birds are gaining access, then fit proofing suited to both the species and the structure.

  • Fouling building up on roofs, ledges or walkways
  • Gutters, vents or signage blocked by nesting material
  • Birds roosting near entrances, loading bays or fire escapes
  • Repeated nesting in the same spot each season

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I stop pigeons roosting on my building?

A site survey identifies the perching and nesting points; netting, spikes or wire then removes access so birds simply cannot land or nest there again.

Is bird control legal?

Yes. Deterrent systems and any managed control are carried out in accordance with applicable wildlife requirements and legislation.

Will spikes or netting damage my building?

No systems are specified and installed to protect both the fabric of the property and its appearance, using discreet fixings and near-invisible materials where needed.

Do you work on commercial and industrial sites?

Yes including complex commercial and industrial sites such as rail, plant and manufacturing, as well as shops, offices, hotels and homes.

How much does bird proofing cost?

It depends on the areas involved and the method needed; we survey the site and quote up front, with no obligation.

Can you clean up bird droppings safely?

Yes fouling can carry health risks, so clean-up and disinfection is carried out by trained technicians with the correct protective equipment.
