Homemade Solutions Not Working? The Bird Control Products You Should Be Using
If you own a retail establishment, pest birds can become a real problem. Besides leaving unsightly and unsanitary droppings everywhere, birds can damage roofs, block AC units and clog rain gutters. Some birds have even caused fires when they build their nests in lighted signage. Many store owners and property managers think they can solve their pest bird problem using homemade devices and solutions. These run the gamut from firecrackers and plastic snakes to poisons and pellet guns. The first two are ineffective because they work either temporarily or not at all. The last two may be illegal and lead to dead birds around your retail store--not something that will endear you to your customers. The bird control experts at Bird B Gone have a few suggestions on bird control products that are both effective and humane.
Electric Bird Control Products
Bird B Gone's Bird Jolt Flat Track educates pest birds with a harmless electric shock. The low-profile track is virtually invisible and is ideal for deterring birds from signage, canopies, awnings, parapet walls and elevated ledges.The tracks UV-protected PVC base bends a full 360, allowing it to follow the contours of sign letters and other curved surfaces. The waterproof track incorporates a patented anti-arcing design to prevent short outs.
Sound Bird Control Products
Intimidating bird pests with sounds they dread to hear, Bird-B-Gone's Solar Bird Chase Super Sonic broadcasts pre-recorded distress and predator calls for 22 different species of birds. The calls of hawks and falcons (the natural enemy of most pest birds) are combined with the sounds of birds in distress.

And because its solar powered, the device can easily be set up wherever pest birds gather.
