Commercial Bird Proofing & Solar Panel Bird Proofing Melbourne
Pigeons, Indian mynas, sparrows and starlings cost businesses money. Droppings stain buildings, signage and stock, make walkways slippery, block gutters and box gutters, and can contaminate food and loading areas. Nests under solar panels cut efficiency and build up flammable material. Zeropest Australia proofs commercial sites and homes across Melbourne so birds can’t roost or nest where they cause damage.
Signs You Need Commercial Bird Control
- Pigeons roosting on ledges, signage, beams, rooftop plant or loading docks
- Droppings building up on walkways, stock, vehicles or equipment
- Nests blocking gutters, box gutters and downpipes
- Birds nesting under solar panels or inside roof spaces and warehouses
- Bird mites or insects around nesting sites
How We Treat Commercial Bird Problems
- Site assessment: we identify the species, where birds roost and nest, and how they get in, and photograph every problem area.
- Clean-up and decontamination: we remove droppings, nests and nesting material, and clear blocked gutters, box gutters and roof gullies.
- Proofing: we install the system that suits the site, such as bird netting, spikes, bird wire, solar panel mesh or the low-profile Flock Off (Birdtech) system.
- Deterrents for open areas: Agrilaser bird-scaring lasers and Avishock electric bird scarers for large sites, rooftops and open areas. They deter birds without harming them.
- Follow-up: we check the proofing is working and adjust it if needed.
Our technicians are trained for work at height, including mobile access platforms and fall arrest systems. Where it’s needed, we can install mesh and netting without drilling into the roof, which helps protect roofs that are still under warranty.
Low-Profile Flock Off (Birdtech) System
For large roofs, Flock Off is an alternative to elevated netting. It sits about 75 mm high compared with around 2.2 m for elevated netting, needs far fewer fixings into the roof, is much less visible, and leaves the roof accessible for other trades. We’ll tell you whether it’s the right fit for your site after an assessment.
Solar Panel Bird Proofing
Pigeons love nesting under solar panels, where they’re sheltered and warm. The nests and droppings reduce panel output, block gutters and create a build-up of dry, flammable material. 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. This suits homes and commercial solar arrays.
