BIRD CONTROL IN CRAIGIEBURN

Bird Control in Craigieburn, Melbourne

Craigieburn's rapid residential growth has pushed bird populations from the surrounding grassland and farmland directly into new housing estates. Indian mynas are well established across the suburb, nesting in roof cavities of homes where construction gaps around fascia, eaves and weep holes were not sealed during the build. Solar panel installations on newer homes have created a significant secondary issue, with pigeons nesting underneath panels where the warm, sheltered space provides ideal breeding conditions. The Craigieburn Town Centre and surrounding retail areas attract large pigeon flocks that roost on commercial building rooftops and ledges.

Signs You Need Bird Control

• Pigeons sitting under or flying around solar panels on your roof throughout the day
• Indian mynas nesting in gaps between the fascia and roof sheeting on new-build homes
• Droppings accumulating on driveways and outdoor entertaining areas below roofline perch points
• Scratching and cooing sounds from the ceiling cavity, particularly in the early morning
• Gutter blockages from nesting material washing down from under solar panels during rain

Our Treatment Process

Craigieburn homes with solar panels receive galvanised mesh clipped around the full perimeter of the panel array, preventing pigeons from accessing the space underneath. For Indian myna nesting in roof cavities, we remove nest material, treat for bird mites that are commonly left behind, and seal entry points with aluminium mesh. New-build homes often need attention at multiple fascia junctions and eave gaps that were left open during construction.

If the problem returns after treatment, contact us and we'll come back to re-treat at no extra cost.

Prevention Tips for Craigieburn Residents

• Have solar panel mesh installed at the time of panel installation to prevent birds nesting underneath
• Check that all weep holes have mesh inserts and that fascia junctions are sealed before handover on new builds
• Avoid leaving pet food or water bowls outside, as Indian mynas are drawn to easy food sources
• Ensure wheelie bins are closed and any compost bins are securely sealed
• Trim young trees growing near rooflines before they become established perch points
