RI, MA EHS Pest Control Blog

Every Spring our native woodpeckers begin their courtship song. Unfortunately, this song involves rapid pecking or drumming against wood or other resonating objects. This may include your home.

To conform with the Federal Migratory Bird Act, harassing or discouraging these birds is all that can be done to keep them off your home.

EHS has developed a method non-harming repellant to keep them off for the season.

What you see here is just a real bad installation of bird "spikes" in a commercial parking garage. The maintenance department of this company spent thousands of dollars on product alone trying to exclude birds in their parking garage on to fail miserably. It also looks horrible! They spent thousands of dollars more in labor to install the failed products and countless hours in labor for routine cleaning. This put workers at risk for disease from the pigeon droppings and their liability was through the roof!

Most people think an owl or “spike” will solve all bird issues but that is never the case. You must always determine the bird pressure and observe their behavior. This is looking at a problem holistically (entire or big picture) in order to provide a successful bird proofing service. EHS solved this issue permanently and it is a reason why we are considered an industry leader at urban bird control.
