Summer can be all fun and games until you sight numerous birds around your home or farm. Birds often leave behind a huge mess. It is, therefore, vital to take necessary measures to control pest birds before ushering in the summer.Here are some techniques you can put to use to get rid of pest birds effectively and safely.
Bird Spikes
Bird spikes create a physical barrier that hinders birds from accessing your home’s rooftop edges, windowsills as well as ledges. The beauty of going for bird spikes as your bird control method is that they prevent birds from building their nests or landing on raised surfaces. Moreover, they are easy to install. Bird spikes are made from stainless steel or plastic. There is a variety of bird spike designs to choose from in the market.
Drones
This is a high-tech method of bird pest control. The bodily presence of a drone poses a threat to the birds. To make it even more effective, a sonic device can be installed to play pre-recorded noises of the birds’ predators, thus keeping them away from your home.
Shock Track Systems
This low profile pest control method keeps pest birds away by subjecting them to an electric shock when they reach some areas. The shock track strips are invisible, and they are installed in pest prone areas such as ledges and windowsills. Any bards that get into this system is forced to reroute once it is electrocuted. These systems are highly regarded by homeowners considering that they scare birds away without harming them.
