Case Study: Comprehensive Bird Control Solution for High Street Premises

Client Overview

A high street premises had been grappling with a persistent pest bird problem for over a decade. Pigeons and seagulls were perching and roosting on the roof and front gutter, leading to significant accumulations of droppings. This not only marred the building’s appearance but also posed serious health and safety concerns.

Challenges Faced

• Ineffective Previous Solutions: Multiple pest control companies had attempted to address the issue by installing bird spikes. However, these measures proved inadequate, as the birds adapted quickly, rendering the spikes ineffective within weeks.
• Environmental Factors: The high street environment, characterised by frequent public feeding of birds, exacerbated the problem. This behaviour encouraged birds to roost nearby, anticipating food opportunities.

Our Approach

Upon engagement, we conducted a thorough site survey to identify the root causes of the infestation. Our findings revealed:

• Public Feeding: Local patrons were feeding the birds, attracting them to the vicinity.
• Roosting Habits: Birds favoured the building’s gutters and roof edges as vantage points to monitor for food.

To address these issues, we proposed a hybrid bird deterrent strategy, combining:

1. Bird Free Gel: A sensory deterrent that discourages birds from landing.
2. Strategically Placed Bird Spikes: Installed in areas with high bird activity to prevent perching.

Implementation

The client expressed initial apprehension regarding the efficacy of Bird Free Gel, citing concerns about its performance. We provided assurances based on best practices:

• Surface Preparation: Thorough cleaning to remove debris and droppings.
• Anti-Pheromone Treatment: Application to neutralise scents that attract birds.
• Correct Placement: Positioning gel pots at manufacturer-recommended intervals, tailored to observed bird pressure.

Upon receiving client approval, we executed the installation meticulously, adhering to manufacturer guidelines to ensure optimal results.

Results & Follow-Up

• Long-Term Success: Eighteen months post-installation, the bird control measures remain effective.
• Client Satisfaction: A follow-up visit in January 2024 confirmed the absence of bird-related issues.

Case Study: Effective Rodent Control in a Newly Renovated Home

Client Overview

A homeowner contacted Pest Dominion after noticing gnawing sounds and a strong urine odour in their newly built library, just months after completing a £200,000 refurbishment. The situation caused considerable distress, prompting the need for an immediate and effective solution.

Initial Assessment and Challenges

During our detailed rodent control survey, we identified rat activity, with the rodents entering via the sewer system and making their way to the library shelves behind the plinths.

We implemented a targeted rat eradication strategy, successfully eliminating the infestation within five days. However, shortly afterwards, the client reported renewed noises, suggesting a secondary entry point.

A key challenge was determining the exact entry route, as the homeowner was adamant that the library was built on a solid concrete floor, making subterranean access seemingly impossible.

Advanced Detection and Resolution

To accurately locate and address all possible access points, we carried out the following:

1. Sewer Drain Survey – We conducted a thorough inspection of the drainage system to identify any vulnerabilities.
2. Identification of a Redundant Sewer Pipe – A disused, uncapped pipe running beneath the library and living room was discovered, providing a hidden entryway for the rats.
3. CCTV Drain Survey – A camera inspection confirmed the pipe’s position beneath the floor but showed no visible breaches.
4. Smoke Testing – This final test provided conclusive proof, as smoke visibly escaped from the redundant pipe into the library room, convincing the client that it was the problem.

With the homeowner’s approval, we implemented a long-term solution:

• Installed multiple One-Way Rat Flaps – Preventing further rodent entry via the sewer system.
• Capped the Redundant Pipe – plugged the key access route with a removeable bung.
• Sealed Additional Vulnerable Areas – Strengthening the property’s rodent-proofing.

Outcome and Client Feedback

Following these measures, the homeowner reported no further rodent activity. A follow-up visit confirmed complete eradication, and the client was highly satisfied with the outcome.

Their feedback:

“Sohail visited our property due to a pest problem. It was a tricky case and he was very patient and thorough with the investigation. He had to visit the property multiple times and did not complain even once and was considerate towards our anxiety due to the issue. Highly recommended.”

Conclusion

This case highlights the importance of detailed inspections, advanced detection methods, and clear customer education in rodent control. By applying our expertise in rat behaviour, drainage systems, and structural vulnerabilities, Pest Dominion successfully resolved a complex infestation, restoring peace of mind for the client.
