Seagull Nesting Season - It’s that wonderful time of the year again!!


Gulls/Seagulls when left to their own devices can be the neighbours from hell, often swooping from height and attacking to protect their nests and young.

Seagull mating activity will start in February when birds begin to identify nesting sites, courting is in full swing by March, and by April the nest will have been made. Typically, eggs (3 per nest) will be laid in late April or May. On a modern building, nests will tend to be built behind a parapet wall or where there is protection from the elements.

There are various, affordable systems available that will help to overcome the threat and deter Gulls/Seagulls from nesting on your buildings and flat roof shelters,these include:

  • Gull Colony Management - Egg and Nest removal
  • Seagull Deterrent Systems such as Gull Netting, Gull Wire, Gull Spike
  • Falconry -  using Hawks or Falcons as a natural deterrent
  • Laser Bird Dispersal Systems
  • Audio Bird Scarer’s
