Industrial Bird Control Across the Midwest

 

Midwest Bird Control provides industrial bird control solutions for large facilities across the Midwest, including Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana. We specialize in long-term control of pigeons, house sparrows, European starlings, and seagulls in high-risk industrial environments where bird pressure impacts safety, sanitation, and operations.

If your facility is dealing with birds roosting on structural steel, nesting above work areas, or contaminating equipment and walkways, we build solutions designed for industrial conditions and Midwest weather.

Bird Problems Impact Safety, Sanitation, and Operations

Bird activity in industrial areas creates more than a nuisance. Common operational impact include:

Slip, Trip & Fall Hazards

 Droppings on walkways, stairwells, catwalks, ladders, and loading areas increase safety risk and cleanup costs. 

Contamination & Compliance Risk

 Bird droppings, feathers, and nesting material can compromise sanitation programs and create audit problems in regulated environments. 

Equipment Damage & Corrosion

 Droppings can accelerate corrosion on steel, degrade surfaces, clog drains, and foul sensitive equipment. 

Downtime and Increased Maintenance

 Frequent cleanups, blocked access points, and recurring nesting cause ongoing labor costs and interruptions. 

Pigeon Control

Sparrow Control

Sparrow Control

 Pigeons roost on beams, ledges, dock canopies, and overhead steel. Their droppings accumulate quickly and often require ongoing cleanup unless access is permanently blocked. 

Sparrow Control

 House sparrows exploit small gaps and repeatedly nest in structural cavities, overhead platforms, and protected edges around industrial buildings. 

Starling Control

Starling Control

 Starlings gather in large flocks and can enter facilities through open doors, wall gaps, and overhead voids. They create noise, droppings, and persistent roosting pressure. 

Seagull Control

Midwest Bird Control works with industrial and commercial sites such as:

Warehouses & Distribution Centers

 Birds roost in rafters, beams, dock canopies, and high-bay areas where droppings can impact inventory and equipment. 

Food & Agricultural Processing

Rail Facilities and Transportation Operations

Warehouses & Distribution Centers

 Facilities handling grain, feed, ingredients, or packaging face elevated compliance risk from birds. 

Rail Facilities and Transportation Operations

Birds were nesting and roosting in 3 buildings for this railroad company.  Heavy accumulations of droppings in each building caused unsanitary conditions for the workers fixing or maintaining railroad cars.

10 rock-star bird netting installers completed all 3 buildings in 18 total working days with time off in the middle of the project for Thanksgiving.

This building and the other one were very similar.  A lot more to go around and the guys handled the challenge very well and Brice Robinson, my foreman, put a plan together with help of 3 other experienced installers to install the net while not interfering with the railroads safety measures

This job took a lot of patience and each day the guys prayed for the job and for each other so that when challenges did come up, they were ready to work together to be able to get the job done

The result was 3 buildings fully protected from birds.  We are professionals at removing birds from buildings and keeping them out for good.  This is why we can say:

Industrial Bird Netting

Proven Industrial Bird Control Solutions

Proven Industrial Bird Control Solutions

 Bird netting is a physical exclusion system that blocks birds from accessing overhead structures, rafters, and high-risk zones. Netting is ideal for large interior and exterior areas where birds consistently roost. 

Structural Exclusion & Sealing

Proven Industrial Bird Control Solutions

Facility-Wide Bird Control Plans

 For sparrows and starlings that exploit small gaps, targeted exclusion and sealing can stop recurring nesting in structural cavities and edges. 

Facility-Wide Bird Control Plans

Facility-Wide Bird Control Plans

 Large sites typically need a multi-zone approach. We identify pressure points and design a complete plan so birds can’t simply shift to a nearby section of the building.

What is the most effective industrial bird control method? 

For many industrial structures, bird netting and physical exclusion provide the most reliable long-term control because they block access rather than trying to scare birds away. 


 Yes. We commonly develop facility-wide plans and phased installs for larger industrial sites. 


 Yes. We address seagull pressure using site-specific strategies based on roosting patterns, structure type, and operational constraints. 


 Project timing depends on scope and access requirements, but we can typically schedule assessments quickly and move to installation once the plan is approved.
