What is falconry?

Falconry is the most humane and natural way to solve a pest bird issue. Using our predatory birds’ presence allows us to disperse unwanted birds from your site. This method ensures no harm to wildlife and provides a long-term, reliable deterrent solution. Our expert Falconer cares for many birds of prey, including Harris Hawks and Longwing Falcons.

Why are nuisance birds an issue?

Nuisance birds such as pigeons and seagulls can cause a variety of issues for a site, including congregations of birds, causing excessive droppings and noise. Falconry aims to humanely and efficiently end such disruptions, and help to prevent them from reoccurring. The risks of untreated nuisance birds include:

•           Disease: Bird droppings can carry diseases and parasites that can pose a risk to staff, students and visitors, such as Salmonella, E.coli and Psittacosis.
•           Health concerns: Dried out droppings can break down into dust, which may cause breathing problems, especially for people with weakened immune systems.
•           Reputation: Particularly applicable to pigeons, an establishment’s reputation can suffer if a bird problem is left untreated.
•           Noise: Persistent cooing or screeching can be loud and disruptive for anyone on your site, as well as neighbouring properties.
•          Property damage: Bird droppings built up over time can cause permanent damage to properties, whether that’s rooftops, walkways or building exteriors. The high salt and ammonia content found in bird droppings are corrosive, and can accelerate rusting and overall deterioration, leading to structural damage.
