Bird Management solutions in Tasmania
Apart from being a nuisance, bird droppings and nesting material all pose a potential health risk to humans. Thankfully, Scorpion offers solutions to keep them away for good.
Many people only realise they have birds in their roof when they are woken to the sound of nesting. There are very few bird species in Tasmania that will nest in your roof space or under the eaves and most commonly we find starlings and Sparrows are the main culprits
The common Starling and House Sparrow are in the top 3 most common birds seen in Tassie’s backyards. Both species build large, untidy nests in and around human habitation, such as roof voids, tree hollows or even wall crevices. Both introduced to Australia in the mid 1900’s, their populations have since exploded due to their ability to feed on a wide variety of food, such as insects, berries, and food scraps discarded by people.
If you suspect you have birds nesting in your roof, call Scorpion on 6268 5397 to discuss management solutions.
So, what is the solution? There are many products on the market that deter or eliminate birds from nesting, such as live trapping, gels, wire barriers & various pesticides. Finding a product that offers permanent deterrence is important because birds tend to come back and nest year after year.
Gutter Guard & Ember Guard
Gutter Guard is an innovative product designed to protect your roof and guttering systems by attaching a material over the exposed gutter, to prevent debris and pest entry whilst allowing water to easily flow through. There are many options on the market but not all Gutter guards are alike, coming in various strengths and features, it is important to choose a quality made product that will maximise the lifespan of your roof and home. Scorpion Pest Management uses a highly durable Colorbond steel gutter Guard that looks stylish and comes with a 15 years product warranty.

Netting
Starlings and Sparrows can cause significant damage to horticultural industries and commercial buildings. They can also carry numerous parasites that can pose a risk to food and livestock industries. In many cases, netting may be the perfect solution for areas that aren’t suitable for Gutter protection systems. Our highly durable netting is UV treated and is pre-stretched, so it won’t sag over time. Scorpion is able to customise the netting to suit most buildings, according to your needs.

Hi Fionna & Geoff, you can call the office on 62685397 and speak to one of our team members. Regards, Scorpion.
We have a massive starling problem at our worksite. We would be interested in knowing if there is a permit available that would allow us to undertake more useful control of the situation.
We have tried laser & noise control to no avail.

Hi
I have noticed sparrows constantly hanging around the gutter in the same spot in last few weeks. I had the roof replaced in June but kept the original box gutter. I checked the roof cavity this morning but couldn’t see enough due to the low pitch of the skillion roof. There is 20 metres of box gutter and would like a quote to install gutter guard.
