Protect your business from the damaging effects of birds.
While not as invasive as rodents or insects, birds can cause significant damage to your business if left unchecked. Whether it’s seagulls stealing people’s food, pigeons leaving ‘gifts’ on cars, or starlings moving into your gutters, birds are unwelcome in a commercial environment. They pose a threat to your business’s reputation and even endanger people’s health.
This is where RK Environmental’s commercial bird control services come in. We follow all state and federal regulations to ensure that your business is compliant and protected against nuisance birds. From retail storefronts to food processing sites, we help commercial facilities address the root causes of bird activity with practical, long-term solutions that align with operational needs.
Birds are active year-round across the 29 states we service. Sites like food plants, pharmaceutical facilities, warehouses, and grocery stores attract pigeons, Canada geese, sparrows, seagulls, and other pest birds. With plenty of shelter and food sources in these locations, birds won’t hesitate to move in.
This brings significant risks, including:
Birds on site can lead to failed audits, contamination risks, safety violations, and even fines. Our bird control services can help reduce these risks and the associated costs to your business.
RK Environmental Services has a dedicated team of experts with over 20 years of experience. Our team offers the highest level of protection, customized to your unique environment.
We will implement steps best suited to your problem. Our solutions range from exclusion, using netting and other barriers, to repellents (sound, visual, taste), physical removal, and other control methods. We focus on solutions that are humane, compliant, and cost-effective.
Different birds create different challenges. We are experts in identifying different bird species and recognizing their behaviors.
We can help manage:
Each species behaves differently, so we design solutions that accommodate their unique nesting, feeding, and movement patterns within your site.

Humanely traps birds, with routine checks for food and water. Birds are promptly removed from the premises after capture. Individual birds can be removed with specialized traps.
Methods to discourage birds from roosting that are irritating but not harmful. Includes visuals, sounds, or smells the birds find unpleasant, as well as physical deterrents like spikes, mesh, and electric track systems.
Focuses on scaring birds and inducing them to fly away. Strategies range from simple reflective tape to specially-developed lasers.
Essential for cleaning up after a bird problem. May require multiple sessions when dealing with an extreme infestation.
Bird netting offers a physical barrier, making it difficult or impossible for birds to land or nest. It works well for large or high-risk areas where other deterrents may fail. Netting also blends with building design and causes minimal disruption to business operations.
Yes. Bird droppings can spread bacteria and damage surfaces, even in non-food areas. Cleaning and disinfection help keep your site safe and compliant. It's also important for maintaining a professional and sanitary appearance.
Exclusion blocks birds from entering or nesting in a space using physical barriers. Trapping involves capturing birds for removal when exclusion isn’t an option. Exclusion is typically a longer-term solution, while trapping addresses active bird presence.
