Bird Control Melbourne
Pigeons, Indian mynas, sparrows and starlings nest in roofs, gutters and under solar panels. Their droppings stain buildings and make paths slippery, their nests block gutters and downpipes, and they bring bird mites into your home. Zeropest Australia bird-proofs homes and businesses across Melbourne, so birds can’t perch or nest where you don’t want them.
Signs You Need Bird Control
- Pigeons or mynas roosting on the roof, ledges or under solar panels
- Droppings building up on paths, cars, balconies or signage
- Nesting material sticking out of gutters, eaves or roof gaps
- Scratching or chirping in the roof space
- Bird mites biting inside the house
How We Treat Bird Problems
- Inspection: we find where birds are perching, nesting and getting in, and photograph every entry point.
- Clean-up: we remove nests, eggs, droppings and nesting material, and clear blocked gutters and box gutters where needed.
- Proofing: we install the right system for the area, such as solar panel mesh, bird netting, spikes, bird wire or the low-profile Flock Off system.
- Sealing: we close the roof and eave gaps birds use to get inside.
For larger sites and open areas, we also use Agrilaser bird-scaring lasers and Avishock electric bird scarers, which deter birds without harming them.
We proof window ledges, downpipes, gutters and box gutters, solar panels, air conditioning units and rooftops.
Solar Panel Bird Proofing
Pigeons love nesting under solar panels, where they’re sheltered and warm. We clean out the nests and droppings, then fit a mesh barrier around the panel edges that keeps birds out without drilling into the panels. See commercial bird and solar panel proofing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you harm the birds?
No. Our proofing systems physically stop birds landing or nesting. They don’t hurt them.
Do bird droppings pose a health risk?
Built-up droppings can carry bacteria and fungal spores, and nests attract bird mites. That’s why we remove fouling and nesting material before we install proofing.
Do you do commercial bird control?
Yes. We bird-proof warehouses, factories, retail and strata buildings. See commercial pest control.
