Expert Bird Control Throughout Rochdale And Greater Manchester
Birds are a common sight in the UK, and for the most part, they don’t come into a lot of contact with humans. However, in some cases, when birds start roosting on buildings or during the breeding season, birds can cause problems.
There are over 640 different bird species found in the UK, but many of them live in remote areas and don’t come near populated locations. Some braver and larger species, such as pigeons, gulls, starlings and others, cause problems by nesting on roofs and under solar panels, leading to noise issues, disturbances and property damage.
At Arrow Pest Management, we’re committed to offering an affordable and effective solution for any bird problems. From homeowners across Rochdale, Bolton, Bury, Oldham, Huddersfield and the surrounding area who need pigeon proofing for solar panels to bird deterrents for commercial sites, we have the expertise needed to carry out the work to the highest standards.
Once the birds are removed, we can also provide pigeon guano removal services to get the site clean and safe. Call us on 01706 375 803 to find out more.

Nuisance birds can cause serious issues for homes and businesses throughout Rochdale and Greater Manchester. Some common problems caused by pest birds include:

- Disturbance: When they roost on your roof, birds can be incredibly noisy and cause a disturbance.
- Health Risks: Bird droppings, also known as guano, carry diseases including psittacosis, salmonella, cryptococcosis, histoplasmosis, and more.

Bird Control FAQs
Are Wild Birds Protected By Law?
In the UK, birds and their nests are protected by the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, and it is illegal to intentionally kill, harm or take them without a license. That’s why bird deterrents are the best solution to keep pest birds away from your property.
What Is The Most Effective Bird Control Solution?
The best bird control technique will depend on the type of property you have, the bird species in the area and other factors. One of the most effective strategies we strongly recommend is to use physical barriers, such as bird netting and bird spikes, to keep birds away from your property and stop them from accessing certain areas.
How Much Does Bird Control Cost?
The cost of your bird control project will depend on a range of factors, including the type of birds you’re dealing with, the size of your site and the bird control solutions you choose to implement. Arrow Pest Management aims to offer a cost-effective bird control service that will meet your needs, so call us for a bespoke, no-obligation quote.
