Meridian Removes Entrenched Birds, Saving Money and Reputation

Leading global package delivery service

The company’s Seaford, Delaware, facility had dealt with birds invading from a nearby field for years. This was Meridian’s first partnership with the company.

Meridian needed to remove a large number of birds who had taken up residence inside the facility.

These birds had built nests and left droppings on delivery trucks, causing damage to packages, delaying deliveries, and threatening the company’s sterling image.
The company determined exclusion netting was cost-prohibitive.

Meridian team captured 40 birds over an 8 hour period.

After the trucks left on their daily routes, Bird Removal Technicians (BRTs) Kristina and David identified the flight paths of birds leaving to forage outside.
They set up Meridian’s patented capture system, catching and removing birds as they flew into the netting.
The BRTs were able to work steadily over the next eight hours while the facility remained open. This is much longer than a typical service call, but warranted given the number of birds.

The successful removal of all birds resulted in a cleaner, healthier workspace, plus a new partnership.

The BRTs determined the facility was bird-free, conducted a site inspection, and offered recommendations.
The satisfied partner expressed their desire to have Meridian return for regular bird removals and inspections.
