Bird Control for Outdoor Dining & Restaurants
How to Keep Birds Away from Outdoor Dining Areas
The most effective way to keep birds away from outdoor dining areas is to incorporate professional bird control solutions, while keeping the tables cleaned and sanitized. Birds and their droppings carry over 60 know transmittable diseases which can put their customers at risk. The most notable of these diseases are E. coli, histoplasmosis, and salmonella.
Pigeons and seagulls will perch on rooftops surrounding dining tables, waiting for any opportunity to swoop in to steal a French fry. Sparrows and grackles will hide in nearby trees , bushes or bounce around on the ground. The boom in outdoor dining experiences have only increased the amount of bird activity seen across the United States. So, what can you do to keep your outdoor dining area bird free?
Note: It is important to clean away nesting materials and droppings thoroughly before installation of products.
Clean and Sanitize the Area Frequently
The first and arguably most important step is to focus on keeping the dining area bused and cleaned. Food and water are the main reason birds are attracted to dining areas. No matter what bird control methods you incorporate into your program, leaving food scraps will keep those birds coming back.
Excluding Birds from Outdoor Dining Areas
Exclusionary products such as bird netting can be used to screen off areas, while keeping the feel of an outdoor environment. Professionally installed bird net will allow sunlight and wind to pass through the mesh, comforting patrons during their dining experience. Netting will be the most effective form of bird control.
- Netting works for All bird species; small, medium, and large birds
- Allows sunlight and air to pass through easily
- Tent off outdoor dining areas to protect dining patrons
