Bird Control - 3 Day Course
This in-depth course is ideal for PCOs who want to learn more about the practical element of installing bird control systems. With a mixture of theory and practical content, the course will give you the skills and confidence needed to undertake a wide variety of bird control jobs. The first day covers legislation, different bird proofing products & systems and how to design and install them, bird pressure, scraing, control and safety. The second day is fully practical, and you will learn how to install Avishock, spikes, birdwire and nets.
This type of work will require you to work at height, so to further increase the range of bird control services you can offer and to help you conform with the health and safety regulations, we are offering an optional third day of training. On this day you will either undertake an IPAF course for a cherry picker license, or PASMA course for a scaffold license.
Courses charged at £220 + VAT including lunch. The additional 3rd day is £170.00 + VAT
