Agricultural & Equine

Bird Control Ireland Ltd have a comprehensive supply of Bird & Wildlife control products and services for Agricultural and Equine sector.

In recent years modern feeds have attracted large numbers of birds into silage/maize pits, slatted units, feed storage areas, animal feeding areas, bales, stables and barns.

This causes several problems for farmers, apart from being unsightly and messy bird guano can be present a serious hazard and in some cases can be fatal if ingested by animals.

Bird access to equine and bovine housing areas should be considered, especially where animals are being fed. Rafters in stables and barns are ideal locations for birds as it is warm and food in constant supply.

Contamination can be through water trough, feed troughs, hay, straw and feed. Feed and water contaminated by bird droppings presents a serious bio hazard for livestock Salmonella, Avian TB and Cocolliosis are commonly associated with this type of contamination. Rooks, Jackdaws, Feral Pigeons and Starlings are often associated with farm buildings and yards. Allowing bird's access to feed should be denied where at all possible and exposed areas where feed is kept loose should be kept to a minimum.
