Why Businesses Struggle with Pest Birds
Birds might be beautiful in nature, but in commercial spaces, they’re a serious problem. From agriculture and airports to solar fields and commercial buildings, pest birds cost businesses millions annually in damages and clean-up costs.
The Risks of Pest Birds on Commercial Properties
- Structural Damage: Bird droppings are acidic and eat away at paint, metal, and roofing.
- Health Hazards: Birds carry over 60 diseases including histoplasmosis and salmonella.
- Lost Revenue: Birds drive away customers and impact employee morale.
- Legal Liability: Slip-and-fall accidents from droppings can lead to lawsuits.
- Equipment Failure: Birds nest in HVAC systems and solar inverters, reducing performance.
Common Offenders: Who’s Causing the Trouble?
- Pigeons: Known for nesting in signs, roofs, and beams, leaving droppings and feathers everywhere.
- Crows: Highly intelligent, aggressive, and notorious for food scavenging and noise pollution.
- Grackles: Gather in large, loud flocks—messy, disruptive, and hard to displace.
- Geese: Cause significant turf damage and leave slippery droppings that create hazards.
- Seagulls: Particularly aggressive near food processing plants and landfills.
These species are not just a nuisance—they’re an economic threat. That’s where falcon control comes in.
What Is Falconry-Based Bird Control?
Falconry-based bird abatement uses trained birds of prey, such as falcons and hawks, to establish territory and scare off pest birds. It taps into the natural predator-prey dynamic. When pigeons, crows, or geese see a falcon overhead, they flee—and stay away.
Why Falcon Bird Control Works So Well
- Natural Deterrence: Prey birds instinctively fear raptors.
- No Noise or Poison: Humane and silent—ideal for public areas.
- Long-Term Results: Birds learn to avoid the area over time.
- Environmentally Friendly: No chemicals or traps needed.
Airstrike Bird Control is one of the few licensed professional falconry services offering this method across the Western United States.

Common Questions About Falcon Control
How fast does falconry-based bird abatement work?
Results are often immediate. Birds recognize danger and disperse quickly. With consistent presence, long-term habits form—keeping birds from returning.
Is this method humane?
Absolutely. Falconry is non-lethal. The raptors are trained not to kill, only to fly and scare. There’s no poison, trapping, or shooting involved.
How often do the falcons need to fly?
It depends on the location and severity. Some clients schedule daily visits during peak seasons. Others may only need weekly or monthly sweeps.
Can this be used alongside other bird control tools?
Yes. In fact, Airstrike often pairs falconry with netting, visual deterrents, decoys, and sound cannons for maximum impact.
