Health fears as pigeons found in hospitals !!

 

pigeon patrol birds

Wow where can you feel safe from infection if not in a hospital? Pigeon Patrol found this story and the troubles the UK is having.

Rats, cockroaches and pigeons were among the pests to be found in hospitals across the city during the last year.  At Birmingham’s Queen Elizabeth Hospital, pest controllers disposed of pigeons in the oncology unit, with 62 call-outs by the Trust over the last 12 months.

At Good Hope Hospital a dead pigeon was removed from an X-Ray filing room, as well as a cockroach found in a ward kitchen at Heartlands Hospital, both run by the Heart of England NHS Foundation Trust.

Katherine Murphy, Chief Executive of the Patients Association, said that the information was a major safety concern.

“Each of our hospitals has a contract with Ecolab, who provide effective, pro-active pest elimination.” A spokesman from University Hospitals Birmingham Trust, which includes the QE Hospital added: “The Trust attaches the greatest importance to infection control and in doing so ensures that our patients, staff and visitors are exposed to minimum risk relating to pest infestation.”

I think that the hospitals could use Pigeon Patrol’s service and most of it’s pigeon deterrent products including the bird spikes, bird netting, 4-S Gel and the new Ultrasonic repellers to help ward off the pigeons.

Pigeon Control: Controlling the Problem

Giant Pigeon PatrolSo here is another company tell you what is the best pigeon deterrent is: Let’s have a peak!

The Bird spike system plays a very important role in preventing the birds from roosting on the ledges. Tips are blunt which don’t hurt the birds and also prevents them from creating the nest. Wire system is also used in warding off the troubles.  Tensioned stainless steel wire is an effective barrier for birds and would go a long way in providing amazing results.

Yea they got this one right!!!

 

Bird blaster is a control device with Dopler radar and an air compressor. Hose is installed around the perimeter of the building or the billboard. Joint feature of the solenoid keeps the air flow to the surgical pipe closed. When a bird flies in the vicinity, the radar transits the information. Hose opens up and a loud noise is emitted that scares the birds away.

Pricy and the city can get you to turn it off for good!!!

Where is the 4-S Gel and the Ultrasonic Repellers????? I am sure that a few of these products will work on certain areas but to be in this industry you have to be one with the pigeon and adapt. That;’s what we do here at Pigeon Patrol Products and Services. We also manufacture all of our own products, from bird spikes, pigeon spikes to netting right down to our sound and ultrasonic repellers we are the logical choice for all your bird control needs.Pigeon Patrol Logo

Woman caught stuffing pigeons into Gucci handbag!

Ho HO this a a whopper of a story that Pigeon Patrol came across :

‘Pigeon Lady of Pimlico’ Nadia Lee, 67, spent 25 years fattening pigeons in the exclusive London

Pigeon Patrol feeding

Here Chicky Chicky!!

borough, much to the dismay of locals.

She became renowned for scooping stricken birds up into her Gucci handbag and taking them to her home and then rubbed the birds in lavender.

Lee, who suffers from multiple personality disorder, was deemed unfit to plead to the charges.

The problem is the feeding of pigeons on a huge scale, which causes serious disturbance to those around her.

‘I then catch them in a net, which I carry with me everywhere I go.

‘Then I put them in Gucci bags hanging off my Mamas & Papas pram. I take them home and take the string off their feet, rub them in lavender and treat them with homeopathy.

Wow not I have seen it all. We need to send over some bird spikes or Ultrasonic repellers for this area to use to help ward off their pigeon problem.

Pigeon Patrol Postman

I will not get Shat on!

Right up our alley: These people should call on the Pigeon Patrol for all their pigeon deterrent needs. It seems that Postal workers are refusing to deliver mail to a woman’s home because they are scared of slipping on – pigeon droppings.

Frustrated Heather Rogers, 63, has been told the amount of bird waste in an alleyway leading to her house is a health and safety risk.

Pigeons gather on top of a wall above the small alley in Helston, Cornwall, and regularly pelt the path with droppings.

When Heather noticed some of her mail wasn’t arriving when she went to the post office to pick it up it had been marked ”too slippery”.

Officials at Royal Mail have told her that it is up to each postal worker to decide if they want to walk on the pigeon droppings.Pigeon Patrol Shat car

Heather said: “I went to the post office and they said they hadn’t been going down there because it was too slippery with all the pigeons. One neighbour of Heather’s said postal workers were being ”ridiculous” in not delivering . She said: ”There are a lot of pigeons here and they do make a bit of a mess, but it’s not too bad.”

These gals need some bird spikes or pigeon spikes, a wee bit of netting and some ultrasonic sounds to get their mail delivered.

Pigeon Patrol Lady

Where did Tweety go!

Most people call Pigeon Patrol to get rid of their pigeon problems, however I am sure that this lady would not have us on her speed dial.

A Vancouver Island woman is devastated after her pet pigeon Tweety was taken to an animal rescue center, which now refuses to give the bird back.

Chemainus resident Sandy Bird, 72, rescued the pigeon from near death last March. He has lived as a member of her family ever since, accompanying Bird everywhere she went, even on car trips.

Last week, Tweety flew out of the car, but returned to the wrong vehicle. The owner of that vehicle, Mike Toole, took the bird to the BC SPCA Wild Animal Rehabilitation Centre – Wild ARC – in Metchosin.

Bird said wildlife officials tell her Tweety is better off with pigeons, but it feels like she’s lost a member of the family.

“He’s probably the most lonely, lost little guy in the world. He’s more than just a bird,” she said.

Despite this, Senior Wildlife Rehabilitator Christina Carrieres said Bird did not have the proper permits.

It is illegal to possess any type of wildlife without a permit. They are protected under the Wildlife Act,” said Carrieres.

Wildlife officials plan to transfer Tweety to another wildlife centre soon, where he can live out his days in captivity.Pigeon bird

While most of our clients call Pigeon Patrol for all of their bird spike , bird spike, bird netting, 4-s Gel and Ultrasonic repellers all bird deterrents, we wish the best to this lady and hope one day she is reunited with Tweety.

Stop Feeding The Damm Birds!!

Stop Feeding The Damm Birds!!

Pigeon Patrol says,” When will people ever learn about feeding the pigeons!

pigeon problem

Who Ya gonna Call!!

POSTERS urging people to stop feeding pigeons are to be put up in Colne town centre. Complaints have been made about people feeding the birds. Leaflets are to be made asking people to think twice before feeding them.

Colne councillor Dorothy Lord said:

“People are coming up with loaves of bread and sitting down on their phones and throwing the bread out to the pigeons. It is causing problems with the amount of pigeons in the town centre. There is also the risk of a rat infestation with the bread left behind on the streets.“The extra pigeon muck is not nice for people in the town centre and it means the area has to be Power washed to clean it up.”“It’s not a nice experience for people in the town centre when there are so many pigeons about. We’re not taking thousands of pigeons but they do breed very quickly so we soon could be.”

This Town really needs bird or pigeon deterrents right away. The kind that Pigeon Patrol manufactures, bird spikes, bird netting , 4-S gel and Ultrasonic Repellers.
