In this guide, we’ll explore why Airstrike stands out, what falconry bird control really is, how it works, and why it’s often the smartest and most sustainable option for bird management.
The Growing Problem with Pest Birds
Bird infestations aren’t just annoying—they’re expensive and hazardous.
Across the West Coast, pest birds like pigeons, gulls, starlings, and sparrows are more than just a nuisance. They pose serious problems for:
- Commercial properties
- Agricultural operations
- Airports and industrial sites
- Solar panel installations
- Retail centers and restaurants
Here’s the deal: pest birds cause structural damage with their acidic droppings, create slip hazards, clog HVAC systems, and even trigger health code violations. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) notes that bird droppings can carry over 60 diseases, including salmonella, histoplasmosis, and E. coli.
The result? Lost productivity, costly cleanups, and potential liability.
What Is Falconry-Based Bird Abatement?
Nature’s most elegant solution to bird control.
Falconry-based bird abatement is a natural, non-lethal method of deterring pest birds using trained raptors such as falcons, hawks, and eagles. These birds of prey are flown strategically to create a “landscape of fear”—a concept in which the presence of predators alters the behavior of nuisance birds.
How Falconry Bird Control Works
- Evaluation: Experts assess the site for bird activity and nesting behavior.
- Deployment: Trained raptors are released under the supervision of licensed falconers.
- Persistence: Regular presence of raptors conditions pest birds to permanently vacate.
- Sustainability: No poisons, traps, or nets—just a natural predator-prey dynamic.
Why It’s Better Than Traditional Methods
| Method | Effectiveness | Eco-Friendly | Long-Term | Legal Issues |
| Falconry Abatement | ✅ High | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ✅ Safe |
| Netting & Spikes | ❌ Low-Med | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | ✅ Safe |
| Sound Cannons | ❌ Low | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | ✅ Safe |
| Poisons & Traps | ❌ Risky | ❌ No | ❌ No | ⚠️Regulated |
Bottom line: falconry-based bird abatement is the only humane, sustainable solution that works with nature—not against it.
