Baker Street London - Gull Management

THE PROBLEM

Window cleaning teams operating in the vicinity of Baker Street were constantly under attack from nesting gulls, creating a serious health and safety risk. The gulls' aggressive behaviour posed a threat to the safety and well-being of the window cleaners, as well as potential damage to property and equipment.

THE SOLUTION

Contego deployed Harry and his team of hawks to provide a natural solution to the problem. With their presence on site, the hawks effectively dispersed the gulls, allowing for a safe and uninterrupted working environment for the window cleaning teams. This proactive approach not only addressed the immediate threat posed by the gulls but also helped to prevent future attacks, ensuring a safer working day for all involved.

THE IMPLEMENTATION

Site Assessment: Contego conducted a thorough assessment of the area around Baker Street to identify key nesting sites and areas of gull activity. This assessment informed the strategic deployment of the hawks to target the gulls effectively.

Specialist Team Deployment: Harry and his team of hawks were deployed to Baker Street, equipped with the expertise and training necessary to manage gull populations in urban environments. The hawks' natural predatory instincts were leveraged to deter gulls from nesting and roosting in the vicinity.

Ongoing Monitoring: Contego maintained regular communication with the window cleaning teams and other stakeholders to monitor the effectiveness of the hawks' presence in dispersing the gulls. Any emerging issues or concerns were promptly addressed to ensure continued safety and productivity on site.
