Robin

In certain instances, robins can be considered as pest birds. For example, they may become territorial and aggressive towards other birds, or cause minor disturbances around nesting areas near homes or buildings. However, due to their protected status under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, any bird control measures taken must be humane, legally compliant and carried out by a qualified person.

Robins generally do not cause significant damage to gardens or property in the UK. However, they can become territorial and may chase away other garden birds. In rare cases, they might peck at windows or mirrors, mistaking their reflection for a rival. This behaviour can be easily addressed with deterrents installed by trained bird control professionals.
