STADIUMS AND SPORTS PERFORMANCE CENTRES
Keeping the Focus on the Game
Bird Beam delivers specialised bird control solutions for stadiums, sporting facilities, bowling greens and high-performance training centres across Australia.
AVIX Autonomic automated laser bird deterrent systems use programmed green laser technology to humanely discourage pest birds from settling, roosting and fouling playing surfaces, spectator areas and sporting infrastructure.
For complex stadium environments, where roof structures, scoreboards, grandstands and inaccessible areas present unique challenges, AVIX laser technology and Wingzaway electromagnetic bird deterrent systems can be used independently or in combination to provide targeted, site-specific protection.
Silent, humane and low-maintenance, these technologies help protect valuable sporting assets, maintain hygiene standards and minimise disruption to athletes, staff and spectators.
Effective bird control that protects the playing environment without interrupting the game.
Project: Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), Victoria
-
Technology: Wingzaway electromagnetic bird deterrent system
-
Installation: 10 Wingzaway devices
-
Target areas: Shane Warne and Ponsford stand roof visor edges and both scoreboard roofs
-
Bird pressure: 30 to 50 birds regularly observed on scoreboards during AFL games, with significant bird activity along the rooflines
-
Trial: After a five-day trial across a two-game AFL weekend under live match conditions, devices were rolled out along the entire grandstand visors.
-
Results: No birds reported on either scoreboard following installation, with birds displaced from treated roof edges
-
Application: Large-scale stadium infrastructure with complex curved rooflines, wind conditions and access requirements
-
Outcome focus: Protecting spectator seating, reducing bird fouling, maintaining venue presentation and minimising bird activity around critical stadium structures
