Bird Control for Homes & Businesses

In NZ, birds are a big part of daily life – especially native birds like the tūī. However, bird control can be necessary for public health, the protection of assets and infrastructure, and the protection of native wildlife. PPS provides professional bird control for homes and businesses across the Bay of Plenty and Central North Island.

• Sparrows

Why Pest Birds Are a Problem

• Health and hygiene: In urban areas, birds can create hygiene, health and safety issues through their droppings, which can carry diseases and create slip hazards.
• Other pest problems: Birds can also bring other pest issues, such as ticks, bird mites, fleas and rodents.
• Building damage: Bird droppings and nesting materials can corrode and damage buildings, statues and other infrastructure.
• A cleaner, safer environment: As a result, managing pest birds helps to maintain a cleaner and safer environment, and is important for preserving your buildings and structures.

Our Bird Control Options

Depending on the bird species, where the birds are and the issues they’re causing, we may recommend one of the following options:

• Bird spiking: For areas where birds perch or nest, such as ledges, pipes and light fixtures.
• Bird netting: For wider areas where bird spiking may not be practical.
• Population management and relocation
