Stop The Spread of Bird Flu! - Avian flu: Herefordshire and Worcestershire


From Monday 7th November 2022, it became a legal requirement for all bird keepers in England to keep their birds inside unless for very specific reasons. This law has come into force to mitigate the risk of transmission of Avian Influenza.



PROTECT YOUR POULTRY, PIGEONS AND WILD BIRDS

Avian Influenza is a notifiable disease. It is a virus which affects birds such as pigeons, ducks, swans, poultry and other wild birds.

Bird flu is spread by vermin; through lakes, rivers and streams; bird to bird contact; bird to person contact and clothing and shoes.



How to take action to protect your birds from avian flu by:

 Isolating your birds from other birds, wild birds and visitors

 Keep your bird premises rodent free

 Keep premises clean to prevent the virus spreading
