Van Vynck Environmental Services - Bird Control & Nuisance Bird Management

Using Falcons for Nuisance Bird Control

Van Vynck Bird Control is a specialist department within the company dealing exclusively with nuisance bird management. We are pioneers of specialist techniques such as the use of predatory species (falconry) to displace and interrupt behavioural patterns as well as offering a complete range of physical deterrents.

We also have a dedicated rope access team fully qualified to install all types of proofing measures to otherwise inaccessible areas. Unlike some companies our staff are specialised and bird deterrent work is only carried out by personnel trained and experienced for this type of work and not by general technicians.

BPCA, ISO 9001 and Safe Contractor logosWe edge our competitors by being able to offer the complete range of bird control techniques without having to rely on outsourcing. This enables us to respond instantly to changes in site conditions or behaviour. When we implement a program of bird management we will provide whatever is required to ensure absolute minimal activity within the original costs.

Hawking to remove nuisance birds

We have a dedicated team of falconers and over forty birds trained in the techniques required to alter patterns of behaviour using predatory species. We have been using Hawks and falcons to displace nuisance bird species from urban locations and industry probably longer than any other company and have developed systems which are now used as a blue print by most of our contemporaries.

We breed all of our own birds then carefully select the best suited based on various criteria including temperament. These birds are then trained using specially developed techniques for on average twelve months and then used exclusively for bird control. This is an important question which must be asked of any potential contractor as only birds trained and used exclusively in this way should ever be introduced to the conditions required.

Upon request we will survey the affected area and provide a free report outlining the important issues such as environmental conditions and availability of food and provide a bespoke program designed to address the problem. With a high level of existing infrastructure we are able to offer not only an effective but also commercially viable solution in almost any location.

 

 

Bingham Pheasant Pluckers
Plucking Machines For Chicken, Goose, Turkey, Pheasant, Partridge, Grouse and all Game Birds

The mechanical plucking of poultry and game was the ambition of a young engineer named Alan Bingham. In a small workshop on Holborn Viaduct, he developed and manufactured the renowned "Bingham Dry Plucking Machine ". This was to become a great success with poultry and game producers, and many thousands were sold.

Today the 'Bingham' retains its successful original design, but now benefits from state-of-the-art machining and contemporary materials technologies.

The 'Bingham' is now manufactured by Bingham Appliances (IB) Ltd. The original business was purchased from Alan Bingham by its present proprietors, and is now run by two engineers of long standing repute, along with their previously established concern, Dotmere Engineering. This company is responsible for a variety of engineering services including mechanical design, prototyping and production of components, systems and solutions to various other trades. The 'Bingham' is therefore developed, manufactured, and built entirely in-house.

Dotmere also offers a range of stainless steel equipment for the poultry and catering trades, specifically designed to comply with todays EC directives.

Bingham Appliances' commitment to quality and reliability is second to none, and is enjoyed by game and poultry farmers, and processing plants throughout the UK and the rest of the world.
