Business Implications of Birds
The presence of birds can create dangerous conditions for your employees, patrons, and guests. They can lower air quality, damage equipment, contaminate products, and create a mess that is difficult to clean up. In some cases, the mere sight of birds can be cause for audit failure or inspection, often leading to shutdowns and lost revenue.
The following property features are some of the places birds are likely to congregate, nest, and roost:
- Building exteriors
- Sign lettering
- Open parking lots with light posts
- Unsecured dumpsters
- Flat roof areas
- HVAC units
These areas may require extra attention when it comes to bird exclusion. Be sure to monitor them regularly for increased bird activity.
