If birds have made their way into your warehouse, grocery store, or industrial site, you need help fast. That’s where a bird removal company comes in. We specialize in capturing and removing birds that have entered your commercial facility, helping restore safe, sanitary conditions for staff and customers.
Unlike traditional pest control, bird removal is a completely different process. Birds can’t be treated the same as insects or rodents. They fly, roost in high or hard-to-reach areas, and in many cases, are protected by state or federal laws. That’s why bird removal companies use specialized equipment and trained technicians to safely and legally remove birds from facilities like retail stores, distribution centers, airports, and factories.
Why Bird Removal Is Not Pest Control
It’s important to understand that bird removal is not just another form of pest control—it’s a separate and highly focused service.
- Different Equipment: Birds require tools and techniques specifically designed to locate, reach, and remove them safely from rafters, ledges, or HVAC systems inside a facility.
- Specialized Training: Technicians must be trained in species identification, behavioral patterns, and removal techniques that comply with environmental and legal regulations.
- Legal Considerations: Certain birds—such as native or protected migratory species—may require special permits for removal. Removing these birds improperly can result in hefty fines or legal consequences for the business.
Why Live Bird Capture Is the Best Method
Among the many options, live bird capture stands out as the safest and most effective method for removing birds from a commercial facility. Here’s why:
- Safer Than Shooting: Firearms or air guns pose safety risks and are not practical in most indoor environments.
- Better Than Poison: Using poison risks secondary contamination, danger to people and non-pest animals (such as pets), and is generally not a legal or recommended option indoors.
- More Reliable Than Trapping: Traps require repeated checking and may not solve the problem quickly or completely.
- Most Birds Can Be Released: In most cases, captured birds are released just outside the facility, away from entry points.
- Positive for Your Brand: Customers and employees prefer clean, bird-free facilities. Also, how the birds are handled can affect your reputation.
What Businesses Need to Know
Birds inside your facility can trigger health code violations, create sanitation risks, and interfere with operations. Whether it’s a grocery store with a bird near the deli or a warehouse with droppings around loading bays, fast removal is essential.
