Pigeon and Bird Proofing: Stop Birds Nesting Before Spring

Pigeons and other nuisance birds start nesting in the UK from around March, and once a nest is active it is legally protected. That makes the winter window the time to install proofing. JG Pest Control fits bird netting, spikes and deterrents for homes and businesses, and you can book on WhatsApp any time.

When nuisance birds are a problem

Nesting begins around March, so bird proofing needs to go in beforehand, over winter. Fouling, noise and blocked gutters are the usual triggers for a call.

Signs to look for

  • Pigeons roosting on ledges, roofs or signage
  • Droppings fouling paths, vehicles or stock
  • Nesting material in gutters, solar panels or under eaves

How we treat nuisance birds

  • Survey of roosting and access points
  • Professional bird netting, spikes and deterrents fitted safely
  • Cleaning and proofing so birds cannot return to protected nest sites

Common questions

When should I install bird proofing?
Before nesting starts in spring, which means the winter months are ideal. Once a nest is active it is protected by law and cannot be removed.
Do you handle commercial bird control?
Yes. We proof commercial premises, signage and solar panels as well as homes. Message us on WhatsApp and we will arrange a survey.

Pigeon Problem Sorted

Big thank you to Ryan & Matt for their help with my pigeon problem. They did a great job of applying the mesh quickly to solar panels, cleaning the mess left by the birds, and tidied up afterwards. Great job and nice blokes, happy to recommend.

Elliot to the rescue

Elliot was efficient and calm removing a very stupid pigeon from my chimney/fireplace. I have a severe bird phobia and he was so kind with me. No mess, bird released into the garden to be stupid another day!
