Watering Spike
Bird Spikes are a Supermarkets Best Friend
If you own or manage a supermarket, you know what attracts shoppers: Sales, Super Bowl and Holidays. But if your supermarket is like most in the country, it also attracts pest birds. And if you’ve learned anything as a supermarket owner/operator, you know that birds are on their way right now to settle in on the signage and rooftops of your market.
Problem: Pest birds can give you a ton of headaches. Their droppings can mar your sales signs and banners (all those expensive banners you plan to put up for summer). The droppings can also stain painted surfaces–like stucco, wood or steel. And roofs are practically an open invitation to bird nests. That’s because almost every supermarket has food filled trash containers in the back as well as the front of the store. And most times, these containers are overflowing with snacks pest birds find irresistible.
As you may have learned from bitter past experience, bird droppings and nesting materials can clog drainage spouts and gutters, leading to all sorts of expensive roof repairs. Water left to gather on a flat supermarket roof can leak and eventually collapse roof sections. Imagine the repair bill. But even if the roof holds up, water damage can seep into the subroof and create puddles in the store. Dripping water can damage expensive refrigeration units and heating systems. It can also short out wiring for lighting and security cameras.
Then there’s the slip-and-fall danger bird droppings create when allowed to gather on store walkways and entrances. One unfortunate fall can result in expensive and time-consuming litigation. Consider too, the image of a store whose windows and doorways are covered with bird droppings. Even bird droppings on your shopping carts outside can be a real turn off for customers.
Solution: There’s really no getting around that fact that you have to implement some type of bird control measure. The only question that remains is what’s best for your store. If past results are any guide and peers are asked about their choice, it all comes down to Bird Spikes, one of the most effective bird control measures on the market today.
Properly installed on roof ledges, parapet walls and rain gutters, bird spikes do the job nicely. Pest birds just can’t negotiate a landing on or near a bird spike. And they work equally well for most of the large birds found around supermarkets—including pigeons, crows and seagulls.
Depending on your budget and the climate in your area, you have two basic options when it comes to Bird Spikes: Stainless steel spikes, which come in 3-, 5- and 8-inch widths; the less expensive plastic spikes, which come in 3-, 5- and 7-inch widths. The other thing about bird spikes is that they are easily installed using glue, nails or screws.
The spikes are blunted at the tips so they won’t harm birds or maintenance crews. They have been approved by the U.S. Humane Society and PICAS (Pigeon Control Advisory Service). Using a humane pest bird deterrent offers an added advantage in that you won’t have dead birds lying in front of your store (as you would if you used poisons or BB guns).
If you’re concerned about how bird spikes might look along the roofline of your store, consider that fact that they now come in white, tan, gray, black, brown, brick red and crystal clear. Spikes with a non-reflective metal finish are also available.
Remember, the best solution for any pest bird problem is to plan ahead. That means you should be installing bird spikes now before they make their nests on the rooftops and signs of your store.
