Stopping Nuisance Birds from Roosting on the Roof in Montgomery, NJ

This homeowner in Montgomery, NJ had enough of pigeons, starlings, and other nuisance birds defecating all over his roof, so he called Bird Solutions by Cowleys for help and we were sent out. Bird droppings are not only hazardous to your health, but they also eat away almost any substrate, particularly tar-based roofing material. A constant accumulation of pigeon droppings can cut the life expectancy of a roof in half.

In order to stop all nuisance birds from roosting on the roof, we installed Shock track. Shock track is a solar-powered, low-profile ledge deterrent system that is effective against all species of nuisance birds and utilizes the principle of fear and flight. The unique electrically charged tracks impart a mild electrical shock when birds land on them. The shock will not harm the nuisance birds but will condition them to avoid the area. The shock track gets affixed to roof, with no screws, and is connected to a solar-powered charger.

We also installed an Eagle Eye bird deterrent onto the roof and secured it in place. The light spectrum reflected back by the Eagle Eye disorient birds in flight by limiting their vision significantly. This causes the bird to deviate in flight and fly to another destination.
