A bird’s eye view of safety

Visitors to Health & Safety South
have the opportunity to get up close
and personal with a real live Harris
Hawk on the NBC Bird & Pest
Solutions stand, as they explain the
range of services their company
employs – including the use of birds
of prey for bird control as a natural
bird scaring measure.

Pest birds – pigeons and seagulls
for example – are not only a nuisance
but can also be a danger to
employees and the public, especially
during the nesting season when they
can nest on buildings and rooftop
plant and machinery. Other species
such as skylarks or lapwings (ground
nesting birds) cause delays and
problems to re-development projects
and construction sites. Started in
1993 with a Princes’ Trust grant,
NBC Bird & Pest Solutions provides
an ethical and responsible solution
for any business that has a bird
problem – be it noise, guano,
aggressive behaviour, and nesting in
grounds or buildings.

Stand 99.
