Bird Proofing: Avi Shock

Avi Shock

THE PROBLEM

The hospital faced persistent challenges with roosting pigeons and gulls, which posed health and safety risks to patients, staff, and visitors. The presence of pest birds on the premises not only created unsanitary conditions but also compromised the hospital's reputation and compliance with regulatory standards.

THE SOLUTION

Contego recommended the installation of approximately 200 meters of AviShock, a humane and effective bird deterrent system, as part of the hospital's pest management strategy. AviShock utilises low-voltage electric pulses to create a mild shock upon contact, deterring birds from landing or roosting on surfaces without causing harm.

THE IMPLEMENTATION

Site Assessment: Contego's team conducted a thorough assessment of the hospital premises to identify key roosting areas and determine the most suitable placement for the AviShock system.

Customised Installation: Over the course of two days, Contego's technicians utilized both an onsite latchways system and MEWPs (Mobile Elevated Work Platforms) to gain safe and efficient access to the working areas for the installation of AviShock.

Professional Installation: With meticulous attention to detail, Contego's technicians expertly installed the AviShock system along ledges, rooflines, and other vulnerable areas where pigeons and gulls were known to roost.

Training and Education: As part of the service, Contego provided hospital staff with training on the safe and effective use of AviShock, as well as guidance on ongoing maintenance and monitoring to ensure optimal performance of the system.

THE RESULT

The installation of AviShock at the hospital proved to be highly effective in deterring roosting pigeons and gulls from the premises. By providing a non-lethal and humane solution, Contego helped to create a safer and more hygienic environment for patients, staff, and visitors, while also protecting the hospital's reputation and regulatory compliance.

Contego's implementation of AviShock at the hospital in the North East demonstrates the effectiveness of innovative bird control solutions in addressing pest bird infestations. By leveraging AviShock's advanced technology and expertise in installation, Contego successfully mitigated the risks associated with roosting pigeons and gulls, contributing to the overall well-being and safety of the hospital environment.
