Birds cause a lot of
problems to the shopping center owners. Bird droppings on walkways,
canopies, entrances, and signage create unsightly appearance. It robs
the shopping malls of its otherwise stylish and elegant look and
décor.
Then bird droppings are
quite slippery in nature and should someone slip and fall due to it,
the owners are legally liable to pay for his medical expense and
other expenses borne by him due to the injury.
Pest birds cause
potential damage to air conditioning units placed at the rooftop.
Bird droppings, insects, debris, and nesting materials near wiring,
motors, and relays creates a fire hazard. Wiring that is exposed to
acidic bird dropping loses insulation over time and becomes risky to
use.
Rooftop ventilators,
fans, ducting, and drainage gutters too are affected by the birds as
they get clogged with their nesting material, feathers, and other
substances.
As Pest birds plague
shopping center owners and managers, it becomes imperative to adopt effective bird control methods. If not dealt with properly, birds can
actually take over the shopping center, causing huge loss and serious
health problems to the people who visit the shopping center.
Bird spikes, bird slopes,
bird netting, bird gels, bird wires, and electronic repellers are to
name but a few of the many bird control methods that are available
for dealing with them effectively.
