Bird Proofing on Another Level!

Published: 29/06/2025

Apest are pleased to confirm the successful delivery of environmental cleaning and bird proofing works at a premises in Kingston Upon Thames today for KBC.

To ensure safe and efficient access to elevated areas, a Mobile Elevating Work Platform (MEWP) was deployed used by our IPAF certified Senior Pest Controller.

Our operatives completed a thorough cleaning of the guttering above the affected top floor flats, the surrounding UPVC framework, and various external fixtures and fittings, including boiler flues and gas pipework. Additional guano was then carefully removed from the outer ledges of the communal balconies.

Upon completion of the cleaning, polycarbonate AviPoint bird deterrents were installed at all critical locations, including:

  • Guttering and UPVC framework of flats 
  • Boiler flues, gas pipework, and satellite dishes
  • Stonework sections identified as active roosting points along the roof perimeter

These preventive measures are designed to offer long-term protection and help maintain a clean, hygienic environment for residents.
