Birds are reportedly becoming trapped behind humane bird-deterrent metal screens, which have fallen into disrepair, apparently installed beneath solar panels at a house on Buckland Street in St. Catharines, Ontario. According to sources nearby, there are at least 8 live birds currently trapped underneath the three solar panels, desperately trying in vain to escape. Reportedly, several dead birds are visible as well. The birds are gaining entry behind the screens but are unable to find a way out. They’re likely suffering horribly as they slowly succumb to stress, starvation, or dehydration.

Sadly, animal control personnel appear to be ignoring the urgency of this situation and have yet to let us know if they have devised a plan to extract the surviving birds or prevent others from becoming trapped and dying. However, officials just need to ensure that the screens are removed by the homeowner in order to secure the welfare of these birds as well as to prevent future tragedy and potential violations of the Migratory Birds Convention Act and the Canada Wildlife Act.

Please call and e-mail Niagara Region Animal Services and urge it to help the birds on Buckland Street in St. Catherines:

Pigeons are reportedly being trapped behind chicken wire fencing apparently being installed beneath the awning at the DII Deals & Discounts store at 4086 Broadway in New York City. According to sources nearby, several pigeons are currently in the rafters and at least one baby pigeon can be heard vocalizing. A PETA caseworker spoke to the manager, who told us that the company it hired has assured him that no birds or nests are present, but our complainant sees pigeons behind the fencing that is currently being installed and the company is moving forward with enclosing the space anyway. If these birds or any nests remain, the animals will not be able to escape and will likely suffer horribly as they slowly succumb to stress, starvation, or dehydration.

Please call the store manager and urge him to immediately stop the installation of this chicken wire fencing, in order to prevent tragedy! Tell management that it can install anti-roosting products such as bird spikes, slides, and coils or employ scare tactics such as sonic devices and motion-activated lights along with regularly rotated visual products such as Daddi Long Legs, predator effigies, and Mylar streamers and/or flags, all of which are low- or zero maintenance and will further deter birds.

Please call Miguel, the manager of DII Deals & Discounts, at 917-388-3430.

Then, please e-mail Miguel at S33@beeii.com.

Update (July 22, 2024): As we reported previously, the DII Deals & Discounts store at 4086 Broadway in New York City was installing chicken wire fencing underneath its awning while entombing birds and their nests in the process. PETA has just confirmed that this business is now working with a wildlife rehabber who is ensuring that any birds trapped behind the fencing are carefully freed. We appreciate the store’s compassionate decision and thank everyone who spoke out for these animals!
