In Melbourne, 1 in 5 homes in have issues of bird infestation. Aside from the annoying noise, birds, vermin, and other pests carry a wide variety of diseases that can propagate into your home.
Pest bird populations are noisy, generate a significant amount of mess and nesting debris and are detrimental to our local Australian ecosystems. You can be sure if pest birds come home to roost, property owners will have headaches and hassle.
Pest control services can rid your roof of these issues; however, they cannot prevent pests from returning again and again.
Bird Proofing Advantages
Prevent Blocked Gutters and Property Damage
Bird nesting ruminants and feathers accumulate in guttering systems and roof valleys, causing blockages and clogs in gutters and downpipes. Bird nesting material build-up and blockages can create water damage. Birds are also known to damage shingles and tiles when roosting on roofs.
Protect Your Health
Bird droppings and fouling carry over sixty transmissible diseases, and parasites, including salmonella, pose health risks to your family. Nesting sites in homes can transmit bird mites and lice to your family and can attract other nasty pests, such as vermin.
Better Property Aesthetics
Bird droppings on your roof and around your property look terrible compared to your bird-free neighbours. The high acidity-levels of bird droppings leave permeant discolouration and stains on your roof. Roofing eaves, verandas and gutters also look unkempt when they are littered with nesting materials and feathers.
Reduce Nesting Birds Noise
When Birds nest and roost, it is a loud affair. Baby birds will cry for food and their mothers at all hours of the day and night. Some bird species are nocturnally active, while others are also live in communal families. Install bird mesh to enjoy peace-and-quiet.
Protect Your Solar Panels
Birds invade any spaces that offer protection and warmth – your solar panels are dream homes. Birds can damage electrical wiring while they roost. Bird dropping acidity can permanently damage corrode aluminium frames and stain the solar panel facade. Bird-related damage can reduce solar panel function and is often warranty voided.
Protect the Environment
The majority of the birds we proof against are introduced- species to Australia. Like most foreign species, they negatively impact our Indigenous bird species’ ecosystem. Often bird proofing your home will encourage native bird species to return to your gardens.
Keep birds and vermin out of your roof.
Signs of Bird Invasion on Victorian Properties
- Clogged gutters and drain pipes with feathers or bird nest materials;
- Increase in bird droppings and fouling on the property's roof and flat surfaces, including solar panels, walls, fascia, roof eaves, and verandah;
- Strong foul odours with unclear sources;
- Scratching and screeching sounds on the roof or inside the property's walls;
- Loud young birds screeching at all hours of the day or night;
- Increase in nesting material accumulation and litter around the property; and
- Scavenged garbage and litter around the property.
Bird Proof instead of Bird Control
- Bird prevention and bird proofing measures are more humane and eco-friendly than other bird control measures, including bird spikes, bird netting and sprays that can potentially harm or kill the birds.
- Bird proofing and prevention is a long-term solution as the birds unable to get access will move on quickly to other more easily accessible nesting sites.
- Bird proofing and prevention is more effective as the physical barriers prevent birds from accessing areas of your properties to avoid nesting or roosting.
- Bird proofing and prevention is a more cost-effective solution, as homeowners make a one-time investment with a 25-year workmanship warranty, unlike bird control measures requiring a regular application that can add up for homeowners.
