Bird control is the generic name for methods to eliminate or deter pest birds from landing, roosting and nesting.
It is important to use professional bird control products that do not harm birds, other animals or people. DIY devices such as the glass shown above can injure the birds as well as any people that come in contact with it. When in doubt call a professional bird control installer.
Bird control is important because pest birds can create health-related problems through their feces, including histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, and psittacosis. Bird droppings may also cause damage to property and equipment. Birds also frequently steal from crops and fruit orchards.

Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or control:
“It is Nature’s own bird which lives on buds and diet-drink.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“If someone does something we disapprove of, we regard him as bad if we believe we can deter him from persisting in his conduct, but we regard him as mad if we believe we cannot. In either case, the crucial issue is our control of the other: the more we lose control over him, and the more he assumes control over himself, the more, in case of conflict, we are likely to consider him mad rather than just bad.”
—Thomas Szasz (b. 1920)
