Birds Keeping Electric Company from Keeping the Lights On

Rappahannock Electric Co

Meridian partnered with the maintenance manager to remove the birds and provide guidance moving forward

Meridian was asked if anything could be done to solve the bird damage on the company vehicles.

Trucks with bird mess all over the windshields impaired visibility and created a dangerous work situation
They had to clean all their equipment before heading out to do their job
Being a power company, they need to be out on the road fixing power issues quickly and safely

Meridian’s Live Capture and Nest Removal solved the issue in a single visit.

Combination of interior nest removal, physically removing the birds and Full Facility Inspection
From our recommendations for sealing holes and closing off roosting sites (because of the availability of equipment, they did this themselves immediately)

The interior population was immediately reduced by 80%.

Closing off access points & roosting spots caused additional reduction naturally
The facility has been bird-free ever since

80%

in interior birds.

“I’ve never seen birds causing such a mess in such a short period of time.”
