USING TRAINED BIRDS OF PREY FOR STRATEGIC BIRD DETERRENCE
At Rapid Response Pest Control, falconry is more than a spectacle — it's a proven method for deterring nuisance birds from settling. Our trained falcons and hawks are flown in targeted areas where seagulls, pigeons, and crows are active. These natural predators create an immediate sense of danger for pest birds, encouraging them to move on. It's a safe, humane, and eco-friendly way to disrupt nesting and roosting habits without using chemicals or loud deterrents.
CUSTOMISED FLIGHT PLANNING BASED ON BIRD BEHAVIOUR
Every bird population behaves differently depending on season, food availability, and site layout. That's why we monitor the target species closely before and during our falconry sessions. By identifying peak activity times and preferred landing spots, we schedule flights to maximise effectiveness. For properties where rodents may also be contributing to bird presence, our mole and squirrel service can address wider habitat concerns that attract pest species in the first place.
INTEGRATING PHYSICAL PROOFING AFTER FALCONRY SESSIONS
To prevent birds from returning after falcon flights, we install proofing systems such as bird netting, spikes, and wires. These barriers are carefully placed to deter perching or nesting on ledges, roofs, and open areas. When combined with falconry, these measures offer both immediate and lasting protection. We also use visual deterrents like reflective discs or artificial predators where appropriate, helping to reinforce the message that your property is no longer a safe landing spot. If nesting has already occurred, our wasp and bees nest removal service may also be useful for other high-level treatments.
MAINTAINING BIRD-FREE STATUS THROUGH ONGOING VISITS
Keeping birds away is a long-term process. Our team schedules regular falconry visits to ensure that pressure is maintained and the pest species do not return. Each site is reviewed periodically, and proofing systems are adjusted if needed. With Rapid Response Pest Control, you get a bird management service that adapts with the seasons and the environment — providing dependable results without harming local wildlife or affecting day-to-day activity on your site.
