How to Effectively Keep Birds Away and Protect Infrastructure?
Mar. 21, 2025
Fly Light is an innovative light-based protection system that prevents birds from nesting in railways, airports, industry, and logistics.
How to Keep Birds Away?
The most common bird deterrent methods include protective nets, sound bird deterrents, and physical barriers such as anti-pigeon spikes. Birds can pose significant problems in public infrastructure, industry, and warehouses. Pigeons, in particular, cause multiple issues that affect infrastructure, human health, and overall environmental safety. Their presence is especially problematic in areas requiring high levels of hygiene and material protection.
Damage Caused by Pigeons
Corrosion and Material Damage
Pigeon droppings contain highly corrosive substances that can damage metal structures, facades, machinery, and other industrial equipment. Over time, this can lead to material degradation, reducing their lifespan and increasing maintenance costs.
Hygiene Risks and Disease Transmission
Pigeons are carriers of numerous diseases that are hazardous to humans. Their droppings may contain bacteria, viruses, and fungi that can cause infections. When dry, droppings can turn into airborne dust, which poses a respiratory health risk for people nearby.
Safety Hazards and Operational Disruptions
Pigeons often gather around airports, where they pose a collision risk to airplanes, leading to potential accidents.
At railway stations and logistics hubs, droppings accumulate on walkways, increasing the risk of slips and falls.
In industrial facilities, pigeons can damage electrical equipment by nesting near wiring or ventilation systems.
Food and Raw Material Contamination
In warehouses, manufacturing plants, and retail stores, pigeon droppings and feathers can contaminate food, packaging, and raw materials. This creates serious risks for product quality and consumer health, potentially leading to inspection shutdowns and financial losses.
Cleaning Challenges and High Maintenance Costs
The presence of pigeons requires constant cleaning. Droppings accumulate on buildings, floors, machinery, and surfaces, increasing maintenance costs. If the issue is not addressed in time, expenses can escalate significantly.
