How to Keep Birds Away from Hotels and Motels
If you own or manage a hotel close to an airport, pest birds can become a real problem. Bird pests like to loaf and loiter around airport areas because they're drawn to open spaces. The lofty areas provided by nearby hotels offer safe refuge from weather and predators, leading birds to build nests around signs, ledges, and inside mechanical louvers. Besides being unsightly, bird nests around signage can create electrical fire hazards due to dry branches and feathers. Bird debris can also block vents, skylights, solar panels, and rooftop AC units—all very costly systems to repair and maintain.
The solution is professional bird deterrents. The bird control experts at Bird B Gone offer three humane and effective deterrents to keep birds away from your hotel property.
Stainless Steel Bird Spikes
Bird B Gone Stainless Steel Bird Spikes create a no-landing zone wherever they're installed, effectively deterring medium-to-large birds like pigeons, crows, and gulls. Spikes will keep birds away from hotel parapet walls, rooflines, AC units, signage, and other elevated perches. These spikes feature marine-grade stainless steel pins embedded in a UV-protected polycarbonate base, making them virtually maintenance-free. The flexible base curves easily around signage and architectural features, while the narrow footprint allows for installation on slender ledges. The non-reflective spikes are crush-proof and can be installed using glue, screws, or tie-downs. Blunt tips ensure birds and maintenance crews remain safe from injury.
Sonic Bird Deterrents
Bird B Gone's Bird Chase Super Sonic uses sound technology to protect hotel grounds. It broadcasts pre-recorded distress and predator calls that pest birds recognize as active threats, covering distress sounds for over 22 different species. The unit repeats threatening calls every 10 minutes, with fully adjustable volume control ranging from 65 to 105 decibels. Unlike useless ultrasonic bird scare devices that emit high-frequency sounds birds cannot hear, the Bird Chase device uses actual audible bird sounds. The unit runs on standard 110V AC power with an included 50 ft power cord, providing coverage for up to one full acre (expandable to 5 acres with additional satellite speakers) to keep birds away from key areas.
Bird Spiders for Flat Surfaces
Bird B Gone's Bird Spider 360 keeps pest birds off rooftop AC units, light fixtures, and flat elevated surfaces where birds like to perch. Its long, spindly stainless steel arms whip around in the breeze to intimidate approaching birds. Bird Spiders are available in 2 ft, 4 ft, 6 ft, and 8 ft diameter sizes to protect increasingly wider areas. They are easy to install, practically invisible from the ground, and maintenance-free. With versatile mounting options available (including temporary base mounts for HVAC units), they can be repositioned as needed to keep birds away from high-traffic roosting sites.
