North Island Naval Station
Problem:
Pigeons were causing problems
over at North Island Nanval Station in the hangars. The pigeons were roosting in
the rafters and beams above the airplanes and making a mess that meant lots of
time and energy devoted to cleanup, as well as potential problems caused by
pigeon droppings or nesting materials embedding themselves in high tech
equipment.Solution:
Our bird control team worked
with the Army Corp of Engineers to solve the pigeon problems at North Island
Naval Station, by installing pigeon netting across the entire beam structure of
the hangar to effectively block pigeon access completely. This pigeon control
product installation required the use of 60’ boom lifts to install the pigeon
control products and took 2 weeks to complete. Pigeon netting is a 2 inch mesh
of twisted and knotted polyethylene twine designed to last 10 years or more and
pigeon ent is one of the most effective pigeon control products on the market.
The pigeon net installation included the use of net zippers to allow access for
maintenance on lighting fixtures. Once installed, the pigeon net effectively
blocks the pigeons access to the entire area and forces them to leave as there
are no area to perch anymore. The pigeon net was also installed outside in the
loading dock area to deter pigeons from the entire building area.

Pigeon netting installed horizontally across the entire beam
structure of a hangar at North Island Naval Station effectively blocks
the pigeons access to beams and lighting units where pigeons were
roosting and nesting. |

The pigeon net installed at North Island Naval Station keeps
pigeons from defecating on the planes and high tech equipment stored
below. Before the pigeon netting was installed, significant labor was
required for cleanup so there wouldn't be damage from pigeon droppings
and nesting materials to the planes or equipment. |
