Birds

Birds tend to nest and roost in the internal structures around your facility, contributing to a negative outward impression of your company. Their shed feathers and bird droppings, alongside the possibility of diseases being spread, can damage both your reputation and brand. 

Some bird species are considered a real nuisance for businesses. Most pest birds gain entry into premises through loading bay areas or damaged roofing. They are known to:

• Cause property damage by dislodging roof tiles, blocking guttering, building nests and leaving droppings that corrode building material.
• Be aggressive and attack customers and employees, especially during the breeding season when they are defending their young.
• Carry fleas, mites, ticks, lice and other biting insects which can spread diseases and pose a serious health risk.

Birds are known to carry a range of diseases and are hosts to other insect pests. Humans can also develop symptoms similar to influenza from the spores from bird droppings. During our bird control services, Ehrlich takes care of the parasites too, leaving nothing behind or untreated.

It is important to contact us at the first sign of a bird infestation to avoid health hazards such as:

• Salmonella - This bacterium is deposited where pigeons or gulls defecate. It can lead to Salmonellosis and Paratyphoid fever.
• Psittacosis - Also called Ornithosis or pigeon fancier's lung, this infection can be transmitted by inhaling the bacteria from dried droppings or handling feathers of infected pigeons or seagulls.
• Fowl pest - Known also as fowl plague or Newcastle disease, this virus can be transmitted to people when they’re exposed to fecal matter and other excretions from infected pigeon birds.
• Escherichia coli (E. coli) - Mainly spread by seagulls, this can lead to illnesses such as gastroenteritis and septicemia.
• Fungal infections - Includes Histoplasmosis and Cryptococcosis. These infections are carried within bird droppings from seagulls.
