Bird spikes or bird netting?

The answer depends on the site conditions and bird behaviour.

Bird spikes are ideal for preventing birds from landing on ledges and architectural features.

If birds are nesting or gaining access into roof voids, netting or exclusion systems may be the better long-term solution.

Correct specification matters.

Choosing the correct bird spike width matters.

Narrow.
Wide.
X-Wide.

Different ledges and architectural features require different coverage to achieve effective bird deterrence.

AvePro Deluxe Bird Spikes are available in multiple widths to suit parapets, beams, signage, roofs and ledges across commercial and industrial buildings.

Designed to work alongside AvePro Bond Silicone Adhesive for dependable long-term performance.

Pigeons, ibis, crows, ravens and cockatoos can all create serious maintenance and hygiene issues around commercial buildings.

AvePro Deluxe Bird Spikes are designed to deter larger pest bird species from landing on ledges, parapets, beams and rooflines.

AvePro Deluxe Spikes can be bonded using AvePro Bond Silicone Adhesive, while installations exposed to cockatoos and ravens can also be mechanically secured using tek screws for additional attachment security.

Unlike plastic-based systems, the full stainless steel base provides added durability where larger birds may attempt to damage or dislodge spikes from exposed ledges and parapets.

Effective bird management starts with selecting the correct system for the species and pressure level involved.

Many bird species are protected, which means how you manage them matters just as much as the problem itself.

That’s why the focus is shifting toward smarter, non-lethal systems that help prevent nesting, roosting, and site establishment before it escalates.

At PestIT, we work with solutions designed to protect buildings, infrastructure, and operational spaces — without harming the birds themselves.

Bird control works best when it solves the problem without creating another one.

That’s the thinking behind PestIT.

Rather than relying on force, the system is designed to shift bird behaviour — helping protect buildings, solar assets, rooftops, and commercial infrastructure while allowing birds to simply move on.

Because long-term control usually starts with understanding behaviour first.

Pest bird control usually works better when the solution is designed around how birds naturally behave.

Indian Mynas and starlings have adapted exceptionally well to Australian urban environments — learning quickly, competing aggressively, and constantly adjusting to surrounding activity.

The Mini Myna Magnet was developed in Australia with these behaviours in mind, using natural feeding and escape patterns to support more effective long-term control.

Originally developed through research connected to the Australian National University, the system focuses less on force and more on behavioural predictability.

A lot has changed in the way we understand bird behaviour.

And when you combine that with modern electronics and smarter system design, you end up with better options than simply trying to block or remove birds.

The goal isn’t harm.

It’s changing the conditions that make a site attractive in the first place.

That’s what these systems are designed to do — and we’re seeing them applied across real commercial sites every day.

One of the most important parts of trap design happens after the bird enters.

When birds become stressed or disoriented, they naturally move upward or toward what appears to be an escape route.

Effective trap systems are designed around that behaviour.

The Mini Myna Magnet uses a highly engineered one-way valve system that works with these natural movement patterns — guiding birds from the feeding chamber into the holding area while preventing escape.

Not through force.
Not through confusion.
But through predictable behaviour.

That’s often the difference between trapping birds… and designing a trap that consistently works over time.
