The Problem

Three birds. Real damage.
Solvable problems.

Texas shopping centers deal with three primary nuisance bird species. Each creates distinct problems, and each responds to our methods.

Common Grackle
Quiscalus quiscula
Texas's most notorious retail pest. Grackles descend on shopping centers in massive flocks — especially at dusk — overwhelming parking lots, outdoor dining, and entry areas with noise and droppings.
  • Flocks of hundreds create overwhelming noise and mess
  • Droppings deter customers from outdoor areas and dining
  • Aggressive behavior near food courts alarms shoppers
  • Seasonal roosting patterns require proactive management
European Starling
Sturnus vulgaris
Starlings nest aggressively in rooftop signage, HVAC equipment, and building cavities. Their droppings are highly acidic and their nesting materials create fire and ventilation hazards.
  • Nesting inside signage and HVAC units causes costly damage
  • Acidic droppings corrode rooftop equipment and facades
  • Nesting materials create fire hazards in electrical areas
  • Large flocks spread rapidly once roosting is established
Pigeon
Columba livia
Pigeons are year-round residents on retail rooftops and structures. Their persistent roosting and nesting creates chronic slip-and-fall liability, property damage, and a poor first impression for your tenants and shoppers.
  • Droppings on walkways create slip-and-fall liability
  • Year-round nesting causes ongoing structural damage
  • Associated with over 60 transmissible diseases
  • Tenants and shoppers complain, impacting lease renewals
Our Methods

Three humane methods.
One comprehensive solution.

We assess your shopping center and recommend the right method, or combination, to solve your specific bird problem. No poisons. No guesswork.

Flagship Method
Birds of Prey Abatement
Our most powerful long-term solution. Trained Harris Hawks establish natural predator territory across your shopping center, triggering instinctual fear responses in grackles, starlings, and pigeons that no artificial deterrent can replicate. Once your property is recognized as predator territory, nuisance birds relocate, and stay gone. No permanent hardware installed. No chemicals.
Supporting Method — 01
Non-Poison Live Trapping
For properties with large established populations, live trapping reduces bird numbers quickly and humanely, creating ideal conditions for long-term birds of prey deterrence to take hold.
Supporting Method — 02
Hand Netting
For birds roosting inside signage, mechanical rooms, or confined retail spaces, hand netting allows targeted, precise removal without disrupting your tenants or shoppers.
The Cost of Waiting

Bird problems don't resolve
on their own

Every season you delay, roosting populations grow, damage compounds, and liability exposure increases. Here's what unchecked bird activity costs Texas shopping centers.

Tenant complaints & lease risk
Persistent bird problems affect tenant satisfaction and renewal decisions. Outdoor dining tenants are especially impacted by grackle activity and pigeon droppings.
Slip-and-fall liability
Pigeon and grackle droppings on walkways, entries, and parking areas create documented slip-and-fall hazards that expose property owners to significant legal liability.
Equipment & structural damage
Starling nesting and acidic bird droppings corrode HVAC units, signage, roofing membranes, and facades, repair costs that grow exponentially with time.
Customer experience
Shoppers avoid centers with visible bird problems. Grackle noise, pigeon droppings at entrances, and starling odors from nesting areas directly impact foot traffic and sales.
