A warehouse gives birds a roof, a lattice of steel to perch on and, most of the time, a door standing open. Once sparrows, starlings or pigeons are established in the roof, the cost is not the birds — it is the droppings landing on racking, packaging and product below, and the questions that follow at an audit.
Warehouse work splits into three jobs, and most sites need all three: stop birds getting in, take away the places they land once inside, and make the building itself less comfortable to stay in. Below are the Flock Free products for each.
Stopping Birds Getting In
The opening is where the problem starts. Dock doors, man doors and roof openings are the routes in, and closing them is the only method that prevents entry rather than discouraging it.
Flock Free O3 Invisible Netting – Ozone Bird Repellent
$220.00
Treats up to 500 square feet per unit. Draws under 3 watts, so several units run from one outlet. Covered areas only. Flock Free lists warehouses specifically, and recommends it above entrances and loading dock doors.

8' x 8' kit. Heavy-duty UV-resistant vinyl, cut to length, hardware included.

Heavy Duty Strip Curtain Kit 10' x 12'
$999.00

Bird Netting High Tensile Black 3/4" Mesh 50' x 50'
$755.00
3/4 inch mesh, 50 ft by 50 ft, black. 12-ply UV-resistant HDPE, 75 lb knotted breaking strength, steam-set knots. Excludes all but the smallest birds.
Netting is installed on a perimeter of tensioned cable and anchors. Flock Free stocks the brackets, cable, clips, rings, turnbuckles and zip access panels an installation needs — see the full netting range. For sizing a roof or an opening, call the office on 732-987-5400.
Taking Away the Landing Surfaces
Once birds are inside they use the same places every time: purlins, roof trusses, beam flanges, the tops of light fittings. Spikes remove the flat surface without trapping anything.
Stainless Steel Bird Spikes – 100 ft
$325.00
7.5 inch coverage width, 100 ft boxes of 2 ft sections. Adhesive or screw fixing; the flexible base follows curved surfaces. Flock Free lists beams and rafters among the intended surfaces.
Making the Building Uncomfortable
An enclosed building holds scent, which is why these products do more in a warehouse than they would on open ground. They release a grape aroma birds move away from. For use around children and pets. Use as directed.
Scent Pucks for Bird Control
$22.99
For small enclosed spaces such as bin stores, storage areas and warehouses. Cannot be shipped to Connecticut or Indiana.
Scent Dispenser
$64.99
Disperses the vapour from Scent Pucks across a wider area than the pucks alone. Pucks sold separately.
Flock Free Bird Bombs (5 pcs)
$41.99
Five absorbent bombs for enclosed spaces such as bins, dumpsters and storage. Soak in Flock Free Bird Repellent, sold separately.
Flock Free Bird Bomb Bundle
$31.99
Bundle option for the same application. Requires Flock Free Bird Repellent, sold separately.
Flock Free Bird Repellent Concentrate, 1 gallon
$395.00
1 gallon concentrate. Dilute and spray on buildings, pipes and beams — and the fluid the Bird Bombs are soaked in.
Flock Free Bird Repellent Kit
$519.00
1 gallon of concentrate with 2 pints of InvisiDye UV marker. Listed by Flock Free for industrial facilities, parking structures and rooftops.
Treating the Air Over the Floor
A hazer disperses the repellent as an invisible haze rather than onto a surface, which suits a high roof space where nothing can be reached from the ground. The Tweet Zilla is the fixed unit, and it mounts to the racking and columns you already have.
Tweet Zilla - Hazer
$4899.00
Fixed interior or exterior install, silent, light haze. Can be hung from ceilings or mounted to racking and columns. Minimum 6 ft indoors.
L Frame Mount for Tweetzilla
$510.00
Mounts a Tweet Zilla to concrete walls or metal storage racks and spreads the haze through 360 degrees.
ECObird 4.0 - 1 Gallon
$249.00
1 gallon of oil-based methyl anthranilate — the active fluid for Flock Free hazers.
A hazer will not run without fluid. ECObird 4.0 above is the standard fill; Flock Free Bird Repellent concentrate can also be used.
Visual Deterrent
Where gulls are the problem — common on sites near coast, landfill or food waste — an effigy reads as a danger signal and moves them off.
Seagull Effigy
$119.00
Realistic gull form. Listed by Flock Free for rooftops, parking areas, warehouses and dumpsters.
Where To Start
If birds are coming and going, start at the opening — strip curtains on the doors in daily use, an ozone unit above the main entrance, netting across a roof opening. If they are already roosting in the steel, start with spikes on the surfaces they use and add scent products in the more enclosed parts of the building. Hazers are for sites where the roof space is simply out of reach.
