Food Plant Bird Control Since 1991

A single bird in a food processing facility can trigger a failed health inspection. We seal entry points and clear roosting sites to keep plants audit-ready year-round.

Health-Code Compliant Exclusion

Netting, door seals, and screening designed to satisfy USDA and local food-safety inspections.

Dock & Rafter Sealing

Loading dock gaps and overhead rafters closed off where birds most often enter plants.

Documented Service Visits

Written reports provided for audit files and inspector review.

Production-Safe Scheduling

Work planned around shifts and sanitation windows to avoid line downtime.

Bird control for food processing plants

A food processing facility can't treat birds as a cosmetic problem. A single dropping on an exposed line, a feather in packaging, or nesting material near an intake vent can trigger a recall, a failed inspection, or a shutdown. Pigeons, sparrows, and starlings are drawn to loading docks, rooftop units, and warehouse rafters, exactly the areas closest to product.

Birds & Geese Beware, Inc. has kept processing plants and food manufacturing facilities across New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut compliant and bird-free since 1991. We build the plan around your food safety program, not around it, so exclusion work supports your audits instead of complicating them.

Bird control for food processing plants

Why contamination risk starts at the roofline

Droppings and feathers carry pathogens that a food facility can't afford near production. Two in particular drive most of the compliance concern we see.

  • Salmonella, spread through dried droppings that flake into dust near intakes and open bays
  • Histoplasmosis, linked to accumulated droppings in HVAC units and rooftop equipment

Both risks concentrate wherever pigeons and starlings roost closest to processing areas, which is why our surveys focus first on loading docks, rooftop units, and any opening that lets birds move between outside structures and the building envelope.

Why contamination risk starts at the roofline

Matching the deterrent to a compliance-first facility

Deterrent Options

See our bird deterrent options

Every plant's layout is different, so we match the deterrent to the openings, the roofline, and the areas closest to product.

What an inspector actually looks for

Health code reviews and third-party food safety audits both flag evidence of pest activity near production and storage areas, and birds are treated the same as any other pest under those standards. Droppings on a loading dock, nesting debris blocking a vent, or feathers found inside a bay are documented findings, not warnings. We pair every install with cleanup and sanitizing of fouled surfaces so the facility is audit-ready the same day the exclusion work finishes, and we document the install so it supports your existing compliance records.

Our Process

How we run a food processing install

Site survey

We walk docks, rooftop units, and rafters to map roosts and confirm entry points closest to production areas.

Scheduled install

Crews work around shifts and sanitation windows, fitting exclusion to spec without disrupting production.

Cleanup & sanitize

We clear droppings and nesting debris and disinfect affected surfaces.

Compliance follow-up

We check back to confirm the install is holding and document the work for your records.

There's no single product that works everywhere. We combine bird netting at loading docks and rafters with wire or spikes on ledges and rooftop units, and add wire-grid systems where gulls are a factor, so every entry point near production is covered.
Yes, on ledges, beams, and rooftop equipment where birds land before moving toward an opening. Spikes remove the perch without adding anything to the surface that could shed or contaminate nearby product.
Dried droppings can carry salmonella and histoplasmosis, both of which are a documented concern near intakes, HVAC units, and open bays. That risk is why exclusion at the roofline and loading dock is treated as a food safety issue, not a nuisance issue.
Yes. We install to a standard that supports your compliance program, and we document the work so evidence of the exclusion is available for your records during an audit.
Cost depends on the size of the facility, the number of openings, and which species are present. We start with a site survey and quote a plan sized to your operation. Call (732) 558-2464 for a fast, free quote across NJ, NY, and CT.
