Biosecurity starts with keeping wild birds out

Wild birds are the vector your biosecurity plan can't vaccinate against. They carry avian influenza, Newcastle disease and Salmonella straight into feed stores, poultry houses and processing plants. Excluding them is a controllable risk, and BCS has engineered that control since 1987.

Wild-bird control on a poultry farm or processing site means excluding the sparrows and other wild birds that carry avian influenza and Salmonella into feed and sheds. BCS seals ingress points with fine-mesh Spectre Net exclusion netting and treats perching points with the non-toxic Vamoose repellent gel, with an auditable risk assessment for your biosecurity file. Guaranteed bird proofing since 1987.

The risk

What birds actually cost you here

BCS wild-bird exclusion netting protecting a poultry farm and processing site from disease-carrying pest birds

Avian influenza exposure

Wild birds mixing with feed, water or litter are the primary AI introduction route. An outbreak means culling, movement bans and months of lost production.

Feed contamination and loss

Pigeons and sparrows in feed mills and stores consume and foul feed continuously, a permanent tax on your feed conversion ratio.

Salmonella in the supply chain

Wild-bird droppings in production areas undermine the Salmonella control programmes your processing customers audit.

Certification risk

Export approvals and retailer schemes require demonstrated wild-bird exclusion. Gaps in the roof are gaps in the paperwork.

Compliance

Exclusion you can show an auditor

We survey every ingress point, eaves, vents, feed intakes, loading areas, and document the exclusion plan in an ISO 22000-aligned risk assessment your vet and your customers can read.

The solution

How BCS solves it

Spectre Net seals houses, feed stores and mills permanently, custom-fabricated to fit ventilation without restricting airflow, with an 8-year workmanship guarantee. Vamoose two-step gel keeps perimeter structures, gantries and ledges clear for up to 5 years, non-toxic, so it introduces no chemical risk to your flock.

Questions

Bird control for poultry sites

Vamoose is a non-toxic tactile gel registered under Act 36 of 1947 (Reg No. L10143). It is applied to structures where wild birds perch, not inside housing, and contains no poison.
