Professional Bird Spike Installations
Bird spikes services have been used as an effective bird control method for many years. They work by stopping pest birds from sitting (perching) in their desired area. These areas tend to include shop fronts, ledges, gutters and pipes. At Integrum Services, we use bird spikes as an effective bird proofing method, protecting our clients from the noise, mess, disruption and health risks birds cause to customers and staff. Furthermore, from a commercial point of view, bird droppings can cause significant damage to buildings and stock, resulting in cleaning costs and lost revenue.
Our expert bird proofing team have installed 1000’s of bird spikes in our time, and our expertise in this field allows us to recommend if bird spiking is the correct option for your business. If it isn’t, we have a range of different solutions that could help. Depending on the question bird, you may need different size spikes to deter them; for example, seagulls are larger than pigeons, so they will need stronger and more robust spikes.
