Bird Shock Tracks
These units use electricity. The power box is 45cm x 50cm x 50cm. The tracks inter connect. These units are smaller than bird spikes and you need 2 tracks in the same space as a 1 strip of bird spikes. These units are far more expensive than bird spikes but are far less visible.
Sound System
These units can be used on their own or with the eagle eye units. They help reduce the amount of birds by up to 85%. It is still advice to use spikes or close the areas were birds are sitting or roosting.
These units use sonic sounds and must be connected to power. Electrical installation is for the customers cost.
Eagle Eye™
The Eagle Eye™ bird scarer is an effective bird deterrent device that harmlessly relocates birds. Birds are irritated by reflected light beams that flash at various angles from a rotating Eagle Eye™ unit. The system has been extensively tested and used on hundreds of locations in Saudi Arabia as well as Internationally.
These units will help reduce the amount of birds by up to 85%.
Facilities and situations include resorts, food production facilities, waste treatment plants, correctional facilities, hospitals, libraries, government buildings, tourist facilities, golf courses, bowling greens, and horticultural crops to name but a few.
Eagle Eyes have been used extensively in Saudi Arabia and are the original home of Eagle Eye having been developed and tested here over the past 5 years. Extensive trials and now commercial use has been very successful in a wide variety of commercial and cropping situations.

Bird Removal & Treating for Bird Lice
We will remove all nests and birds possible from the roof. We will then treat the roof and the whole home or building for bird lice. We also do netting, spikes, flax and sound systems and cleaning areas of bird droppings.
Birds, business and homes do not mix
Their droppings carry diseases, cause damage to property and are a hazard that may cause slipping and falling.
They carry lice that move into home and business.
Some of the diseases carried by pigeons and other birds, such as seagulls could make you seriously ill. It is important to act at the first sign of a bird infestation to avoid these associated health hazards.
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 faeces and other excretions from infected pigeon birds.
Escherichia coli (E.Coli)
Mainly spread by seagulls, it can lead to illnesses such as gastroenteritis and septicaemia.
Fungal infections
Include Histoplasmosis and Cryptococcosis and are carried within bird droppings from seagulls.
Bird mites
Often found in nests and roosting places. They feed mainly on bird blood but will also bite humans.
Common Bird Pests
Feral Pigeon (Columia livia)
The Feral pigeon is a wide spread, common urban pest bird. They have short legs with level front and hind toes, which enable them to walk on flat surfaces as well as perch on branches.
Habitat
Mostly found in urban or suburban areas
Especially centre of larger cities and railway yards (rarely farmland)
Prefer small flat areas away from the ground like protected ledges and rooftops.
Popular nesting places includes: building ledges, bridge supports, air conditioning units and above windows.
Breeding
Mating pair has 3-4 broods per year
Female lays 2-3 eggs at a time
Eggs take 18 days to hatch
Fledglings leave nest after 35 days
Although they mostly build simple nests from a few stiff twigs, some will lay eggs directly on a protected ledge.
They like to make nests in and on man made structures
Damage
Uric acids in feces are highly corrosive: Feces cause damage to waterproofing of roofs causing leaks; feces damage paint work of automobiles with regular/long contact; feces also damage air conditioning units and solar panels.
Built up feces can lead to structural damage and blocked gutters.
Degrading the aesthetics of potentially neat and beautiful buildings.
Pigeons may cause a health risk when HACP standards are not met by food processing companies as a result of birds entering factories and warehouses: bird droppings damage and infest raw materials, products in process and finished goods
Nests near electrical points/lines or in chimneys are a great fire hazard.
Bacteria, fungal agents and ectoparasites in droppings may be a health risk.
Control Using Eagle Eye
The Eagle Eye is a very effective feral pigeon deterrent. It will deter a large number of roosting and nesting birds from buildings as well as open spaces. The feral pigeon is very sensitive to the Eagle Eye.
Hartlaub’s Gull (Larushartlaubii)
The Hartlaub’s Gull is an indigenous tame sea bird, increasing in numbers. They often hang around gardens, parks and restaurants for scraps. They also follow fishing vessels looking for scraps, or follow ploughs looking for soil invertebrates. Those in urban areas will catch insects at street lights at night. Roosts on roofs, hedges or islands.
Habitat
Seashores, offshore islands, city centers, rubbish dumps, cultivated farmland and estuaries.
Search human in habitations like parks and restaurants for scraps of food.
Breeding
Roosts on rooftops, ledges and islands.
Nest made of twigs and shells
Cultch: 1-3 (in some cases up to 5-8)
Damage
Uric acids in feces are highly corrosive: Feces cause damage to waterproofing of roofs causing leaks; feces damage paint work of automobiles with regular/long contact; feces also damage air conditioning units and solar panels.

Nests near electrical points/lines or in chimneys are a great fire hazard.
Bacteria, fungal agents and ectoparasites in droppings may be a health risk.
When they move in flocks the buildup of their feces has a great impact on buildings
Often dive down, grabbing fisherman’s fish or scraps of food from people
Control Using Eagle Eye
Roosting gulls are easily deterred with the Eagle Eye. Nesting gulls are more reluctant to leave. Their instinct for food is greater than their fear for the Eagle Eye and therefore all food sources must be removed.
