As bird proofing specialists we can provide a system that suits your needs. We  can help incorporate bird proofing solutions from the design stage or provide you with retrofit options.

We control all species of birds from pigeons and gulls to starlings and sparrows.

Examples of bird proofing

Hot Wire is a NON-LETHAL electric bird deterrent system that is effective against all species, at all population pressures in almost any location over an extended life time. Hot Wire provides a hugely valuable new professional management option alongside traditional bird deterrents such as spikes, bird nets and bird wire – proven not to harm birds.

Hot Wire is a successful deterrent because it doesn’t present a physical barrier. Nor is it a scaring device in the conventional visual or audio sense. Instead, Hot Wire modifies the behaviour of urban birds by touch, deterring them from  roosting or nesting on ledges with a harmless electric shock in just the same way electric fencing manages farm livestock.

• Hot Wire is a highly effective in deterring all bird species at all infestation population pressures on ledges, edges, parapets, beams and roof peaks.
• It is the lowest profile bird management system available,  – for meeting challenging architect specifications and protecting visually sensitive locations.
• Uniquely flexible to bend round undulations, curves and corners – for practical protection of signs, statues and other difficult or impossible to proof sites.
• Hot Wire is a highly specified track consisting of two copper wires sealed with a conductive plastic cover, UV stabilised plastic, purpose built connectors and quality, weatherproof energisers – for reliable service over a long lifetime.

Avipoint Bird Spikes – Bird Spikes are another control method to deter larger birds from roosting (Pigeons,Gulls, etc.).

When used in the appropriate areas, Avipoint spikes are highly effective.

Spiders (including white-tails)

We can provide you with a tailored treatment for spiders (including Whitetails) and flies. Please remember to ask what specials we are running.

We are fully-qualified pest control operators and can manage all of your pest issues including.

Spiders take up residence on most surfaces causing unsightly webbing which can build up in a matter of days.

White-tails are becoming more of a problem pest in christchurch and we suggest having a full treatment if you are experiencing problems with white tails inside your home.

As the white-tail spider originates from australia it prefers warm locations we have numerous clients who have had white tail spiders dropping from down lights in search of the heat. We always suggest that if you have young children move the bed to one side of the light to avoid them dropping directly into the bed.

Most white-tailed spider bites occur inside the home where the spiders are found in bedding, towels or clothing. White tailed spiders prey on other spiders, removing their food source by having your house treated will not only control them actively but passively aswell.

 Flies

Flies are not only a nuisance but can create a mess fly dirt build up is usually on windows and cielings.

To control flies we first must determine what species is effecting you and what enviromental solution will work best.

There are  five main species of flys that effect new zealand homes and businesses.

• Blow flies – Blow flies are large and often brightly coloured. They are attracted to dead animals or recently thawed or uncooked meat. Blow flies cause huge damage to the farming community and our economy causing thousands of death in sheep each year due to fly strike.
• Cluster flies – Cluster flies lay their eggs in soil usually in rural areas their lavae then burrow into earthworms. Once they have matured they then will seek warm areas such as cieling voids and roof spaces they can range from a few flies to thousands. We suggest having a treatment and carcass removal treatment.
• Common house flies – Usually found in compost bins and areas where there is rotting vegitation.
• Lesser house flies – Identifiable as the males will fly in a circular or triangle pattern inside a room. Normal residual control is ineffective as they will not land on a surface. We will usually treat this species with a fly trap or bait station.
• Vinigar(fruit) flies – Usually found around rotting or over ripe fruit. Also in pubs and restaurants attracted to beer and wine. Removal of over ripe fruit the best way to control them in areas where the cause cannot be removed we can provide an eco-friendly fruit fly trap.
