As summer ends, thousands of birds begin their annual migration in search of food and shelter. Unfortunately, government buildings-from courthouses and city halls to correctional facilities, transit hubs, and administrative offices-often provide exactly what these flocks are looking for.
For officials responsible for protecting public facilities, taxpayer dollars, and public safety, this creates an urgent challenge: prevent birds before they settle in, or risk expensive, disruptive infestations that are harder to remove later.
Migrating birds see public facilities as ideal habitats. Key attractants include:
Food Sources – dumpsters, employee cafeterias, and waste disposal areas.
Shelter – rafters, ledges, covered walkways, rooftops, and attics.
Protection from Predators – inside public facilities, birds can roost without fear of hawks or other threats.
Once established, these birds are more than a nuisance-they create serious health, safety, and operational risks for government agencies.
Failing to implement proactive government bird control can result in:
Public Health Hazards – droppings spread histoplasmosis, salmonella, and other dangerous diseases.
Infrastructure Damage – birds corrode HVAC systems, roofs, and exterior structures, costing taxpayers in repairs.
Regulatory Violations – infestations may trigger OSHA, CDC, or local health code violations.
Disruption of Services – citizen services, court sessions, and transit operations can be delayed or interrupted.
Negative Public Perception – droppings, noise, and odors create a poor impression for employees and visitors.
By the time visible signs-such as droppings, nests, or circling flocks-appear, the infestation is already costly and complex.
When it comes to bird control for government buildings, officials need solutions that are effective, safe, and scalable. That’s why professional pest management teams rely on Avitrol.

Unlike short-lived scare tactics, Avitrol is designed for public sector pest control strategies where continuity of operations is critical.
Bird migration doesn’t wait for procurement schedules. Once flocks adopt your building as a roosting site, removal becomes more expensive, disruptive, and politically sensitive.
The best approach is prevention through professional bird control:
Schedule a Bird Control Inspection – identify risks before birds arrive.
Secure Entry Points – ledges, vents, and roof access points should be addressed.
Implement an Avitrol Program – have deterrents in place when the first flocks arrive.
Government buildings are more than workplaces-they are symbols of public service and community trust. Protecting them from pest bird infestations safeguards:
Public health
Operational continuity
Infrastructure investments
Taxpayer resources
