 The Birdman is a natural solution for eliminating problem birds species from perching and nesting in buildings. We are an environmentally sensitive option to pesticides and other intrusive means of dealing with problem birds. With the aid of specially trained captive bred raptors, primarily Harris Hawks we can virtually clear indoor structures of pigeons, starlings and other small birds. For problem birds on the exterior of buildings we employ the use of falcons. The aerial pressure from these awesome hunters drives roosting birds such as gulls, pigeons and starlings from structures. This natural, genetically coded predator-prey fear instinct is the primary reason for its effectiveness. The hawks and falcons used for pest deterrence are initially trained in the traditional falconry manner however from the early stages an emphasis is placed on flying in and around structures and confined areas. This early conditioning to industrial and man-made environments allows for free flying raptors in a safe controlled manner with little fear of loss or danger to my clients. Noisy machinery has no negative effect on their behavior to work. The team of raptors are presently working in Airport hangers with roofs exceeding 90 feet, tight closed confines found in Lumber Mills and Waste Transfer Stations. In some cases the birds are working alongside loaders, conveyor belts and other industrial situations. Contact us for an estimate info@the-birdman.net. We are located in Greater Vancouver area in western Canada. |
