Seagull infestations pose serious problems for both health and buildings. Gull fouling is acidic, causing costly damage to roofs, guttering, and building exteriors. Additionally, these birds can carry diseases like salmonella, creating significant health hazards. Seagulls reproduce rapidly, meaning a small issue can escalate quickly, increasing noise, mess, and aggressive behaviour.

During breeding season, seagulls may dive at passersby to defend nests, posing a physical risk to staff, customers, and residents. Nesting materials can clog drainage systems, leading to leaks and structural damp, while gull droppings create slippery surfaces that increase the risk of accidents. Early, professional seagull control is crucial to prevent long-term damage and ongoing disruption.

Common signs of a seagull infestation include:

• Increased bird activity around rooftops and balconies

• Visible gull nests, particularly on roofs and ledges

• Frequent and aggressive swooping behaviours

• Excessive bird droppings causing unsightly and damaging gull fouling

• Blocked drainage systems and gutters due to nesting materials

• Loud disturbances, especially during breeding seasons

Ignoring these signs can intensify the problem, making professional seagull pest control essential. EcoCare's skilled technicians provide a thorough survey and utilise modern, humane methods like seagull spikes, netting, and gull proofing systems to ensure effective seagull removal and prevention.
