Canopies, beams, and framing give pigeons protected places to roost and nest.
This often leads to droppings buildup and sanitation issues around shipping areas.
Midwest Bird Control works with properties such as:
• shopping centers
• hospitals
• hotels
• restaurants
• retail stores
• warehouses
Birds are naturally drawn to loading dock areas because they provide shelter and structure.
Common factors that attract birds include:
• overhead canopy structures
• exposed steel beams and ledges
• protection from weather
• nearby food sources from trash or shipping activity
• warm surfaces and lighting
These conditions make loading docks ideal nesting locations for pigeons and other pest birds.
Once birds establish a nesting location above a dock area, the problem often grows quickly as additional birds return to the same structure.
Bird activity around loading docks can create several operational problems for commercial properties.
These include:
• bird droppings accumulating on dock floors and equipment
• contamination concerns near shipping and receiving areas
• nesting materials clogging drainage or equipment areas
• slip hazards created by droppings buildup
• damage to building surfaces from acidic droppings
These conditions can affect sanitation, safety, and the overall appearance of a commercial property.
Midwest Bird Control installs proven bird exclusion systems designed specifically for commercial structures.
Solutions may include:
• bird netting systems to block access to dock canopy structures
• bird spikes and ledge deterrents on structural surfaces
• exclusion systems to prevent nesting on beams and framing
• structural modifications to prevent repeat nesting
These systems are designed to prevent birds from accessing nesting locations, stopping the problem at its source.
Bird nesting around loading docks occurs across many types of commercial properties, including:
• shopping centers
• retail distribution facilities
• grocery and food retail locations
• hospitals and medical campuses
• hotels and hospitality properties
• restaurants with delivery docks
• warehouse and storage facilities
Any commercial building with overhead dock structures can develop bird nesting problems over time.
Every building structure is different. The most effective bird control solution depends on the design of the dock canopy, framing, and surrounding surfaces.
Midwest Bird Control provides inspection and installation of professional bird exclusion systems for commercial properties across the Midwest.
Scheduling an inspection allows us to evaluate the nesting locations and recommend the most effective long-term solution.
