Birds are wonderful creatures, but when they find their way into supermarkets, they become a 'birden'– and a potential health hazard. In this guide, we'll explore humane and effective methods to guide our feathered friends back outside.
Before taking any action assess the situation. Identify the species of bird and its location within the supermarket. Knowing the bird's habits and behaviors can help you plan a strategy for its safe removal. Also, it is important to know if the bird is endangered if this is the case call experts immediately.
Birds can become disoriented easily in unfamiliar environments. To help them find their way out, create a clear exit path. Remove any obstacles that may obstruct their way to the nearest exit. Open doors and windows if possible, providing a direct route for the bird to leave.
Birds are naturally attracted to light. By turning off all unnecessary lights in the supermarket, you can make the exit the brightest point in the space. Keep only one light on at the chosen exit to guide the bird in the right direction.
Once the lights are off, give the bird some time to adjust to the new environment. In complete darkness, the bird will likely seek out the light source, which should be the exit. Patience is key during this process. Avoid making loud noises or sudden movements that could startle the bird.
Attempts to guide the bird can scare it and cause it to stay close to the ceiling and not move. If you attempt to guide the bird move slowly do not attempt to corral the bird with a broom or another long object as you could also unintenionally hit the bird.
If your attempts to guide the bird out are unsuccessful, call professional help. Local animal control services or wildlife rescue organizations are experienced in handling these situations. They can provide guidance or dispatch a professional to safely capture and release the bird.
Once the bird has been successfully removed, it's crucial to take steps to prevent similar incidents in the future. Inspect the supermarket for potential entry points and seal any gaps or openings, bird netting is an ideal solution to prevent birds from entering. Consider implementing preventative measures such as in bird deterrents to discourage them from entering the premises.
