About
Bird-X has been a trusted name in professional pest management for over six decades, offering a comprehensive range of bird control and wildlife deterrent solutions used in more than 60 countries. Their product line spans electronic devices — including sonic, ultrasonic, and laser repellers — as well as physical control methods such as bird spikes, netting, shock tracks, solar mesh, and predator decoys. Gels, taste aversions, and visual scare products round out the non-electronic options. Beyond birds, Bird-X also addresses animal and insect pests including rodents, deer, raccoons, and more. Products are designed for a wide variety of locations: airports, commercial facilities, retail spaces, residential properties, semi-enclosed structures, and waterways. Bird-X supports professional pest control operators (PCOs) and installers with tailored programs like PCO Select™, training and certification courses (including Laser Safety Officer training), and free site evaluations. An interactive Problem Solver tool helps customers identify the right solution by species and location. Backed by decades of research and a dedicated customer service team, Bird-X is a go-to resource for facility managers, architects, retailers, and property owners seeking long-term, responsible bird and wildlife management.
