Falconry-Based Bird Control for Farms and Agricultural Sites

Birds can cause extensive damage to agricultural operations, from devouring freshly sown seeds and ripe crops to contaminating livestock feed and water supplies. Sky Raiders provides natural, effective bird control using trained birds of prey to defend your assets without harming the environment or your bottom line.

Bird Problems in Agriculture

  • Crop Loss: Pigeons, crows, starlings, and gulls can devastate seedlings and harvest-ready crops.
  • Feed Contamination: Open feed stores attract flocks that spread disease among livestock.
  • Equipment Damage: Bird nesting materials and droppings can harm machinery and ventilation systems.
  • Stress to Livestock: Persistent bird activity can disrupt animal routines and cause distress.

Our Solution: Nature’s Deterrent

By flying falcons or hawks across your land and outbuildings, we simulate the presence of a predator. Over time, this encourages pest birds to abandon the site. We can support:

  • Arable farms
  • Livestock units
  • Grain silos and feed stores
  • Vineyards and orchards
  • Commercial greenhouses and polytunnels
  • Aquaculture and fisheries
