OvoControl® P
Where to use
Refineries & Chemical Plants
Learn how we help refineries and chemical plants solve their pigeon problems.
Large physical sites such as oil refineries and chemical plants are ideal candidates for OvoControl®.
PIGEON CONTROL AT AN OIL REFINERY
Ever since they were built, pigeons have been a problem for oil refineries. Open structures and heat generating equipment are often the attraction. The pipes, beams & poles inside these facilities provide a perfect haven for pigeons to nest. The birds’ droppings and other debris add additional safety hazards to an already hazardous area.
OvoControl® P provides a safe, easy-to-use and effective solution for oil refineries to control the pigeon population for good. Methods such as trapping and poisoning the birds may alleviate the problem temporarily, although due to their rapid breeding and site fidelity, pigeons always return and repopulate the very attractive site.
OvoControl® P reduces the population naturally, through attrition, over a period of time. With continued use, the population declines at a rate of roughly 50%, annually. With a successful contraceptive program, facilities such as an oil refinery will ultimately drive their pigeon population down by 90 to 95%.
Refineries are often challenging sites for environmental stewardship. Thankfully, OvoControl® P represents an environmentally benign pigeon control strategy which does not pose secondary risks to raptors or scavengers.
PIGEON CONTROL AT A CHEMICAL PLANT
Pigeons can represent a costly nuisance for chemical plants. In many cases, these birds have been at the facility ever since it was built. Open structures and heat-generating equipment are what generally attracts birds to these sites. The pipes, beams, catwalks, and towers inside these facilities provide a perfect haven for pigeons to nest. Over time, the nests, feces, and debris can cause considerable damage to a plant’s mechanical and electrical components.
Furthermore, the birds’ droppings and other debris add additional health hazards to an already hazardous area.
OvoControl® P provides a safe, easy-to-use, and effective solution for all types of chemical facilities to control the pigeon population for good. Methods such as trapping and poisoning the birds may alleviate the problem temporarily, however, due to their rapid breeding, pigeons always return and repopulate the very attractive site.
OvoControl® P reduces the population naturally, through attrition. With continued use, the population declines at a rate of roughly 50%, annually. With a successful contraceptive program, facilities such as these will ultimately drive their pigeon population down to 5 to 10% of the original population.
Chemical plants are often challenging sites for environmental stewardship. Thankfully, OvoControl® P represents an environmentally benign pigeon control strategy that does not pose secondary risks to raptors or scavengers.
