About BCS

The original name in guaranteed bird proofing

Founded in 1987, BCS Bird Control Services is South Africa's specialist bird proofer, the company that made 'guaranteed bird control' a category, and still leads it.

Our position

We sit above pest control, not inside it

Most companies that will quote you on a bird problem are general pest controllers for whom birds are a sideline. BCS is the opposite: a specialist that has done nothing but bird proofing since 1987, with our own manufactured systems and our own installation crews.

That focus is why we cost more and last longer. Our Vamoose two-step system, gel then sealer, is engineered to hold for up to 5 years, where single-step gels stop working within 6 months. Our Spectre Net netting is fabricated per structure and guaranteed for eight years. We don't compete on being cheap. We compete on the birds not coming back.

Our survey and risk-assessment methodology is aligned with ISO 22000:2018, so the work we do stands up in a food-safety audit, not just a facilities inspection.

What we stand on

Four things that don't change

A specialist, not a generalist

We are a bird specialist and always have been, never a general pest control company. Everything we do, from Vamoose to Spectre Net to our survey methodology, exists to solve one problem completely: birds.

We manufacture what we install

BCS makes its own systems. Vamoose gel is registered under Act 36 of 1947; Spectre Net is fabricated in-house. Owning the product is why we can stand behind the guarantee.

Guaranteed outcomes

We sell a result, 'No Birds', not an attempt. Vamoose installations last up to 5 years and Spectre Net carries an 8-year workmanship guarantee in writing.

Humane by principle

No poisons, no culling. Our methods displace birds without harming them, independently verified by the University of KwaZulu-Natal. It's the only approach state-owned and blue-chip clients will sign off.

Where we work

A KZN base with national reach

BCS installs directly across KwaZulu-Natal from its home base, and our own crews travel to major projects nationwide, particularly for blue-chip clients, backed by a trained partner network. We have also completed cross-border projects in Eswatini, Botswana, Malawi and Mozambique.

Wherever the work is, it is the same Vamoose and Spectre Net systems, the same specifications and the same written guarantees.

Get birds off your site. For good.

A BCS specialist will assess your site, identify every roosting and ingress point, and give you a scoped, guaranteed proposal, at no charge.
