Humane Trapping of Birds

Humane trapping of birds involves capturing birds in a safe and ethical manner, ensuring their well-being throughout the process.  In the UK, this method is used primarily for managing problem bird species.

The process typically includes: 

Legal Compliance

Ensuring that all trapping activities comply with UK wildlife protection laws, including obtaining necessary licenses.

Humane Traps

Using specially designed traps that capture birds without injuring them, such as walk-in cages or funnel traps.

Monitoring

Regularly checking traps to minimise stress for the birds.

This approach prioritises the welfare of the birds while effectively managing the challenges of bird-related problems.
