Abu Dhabi has published a thorough guide to address and control invading bird species in urban and suburban regions.

Under the direction of the Department of Municipalities and Transportation (DMT), the initiative lays out acceptable behavior while forbade dangerous actions such the use of poison, electricity, or any form of projectiles, Rather, the guidance advises visual and audible deterrents as well as specific spikes and nets as these strategies not compromise the general look of the city.

The book emphasizes that some human actions, including trash, spreading bird food, or keeping pigeon coops on rooftops, greatly help exotic bird species to proliferate. Authorities hope to slow the expansion of birds including the Rock Dove, Common Myna, Rose-ringed Parakeet, House Crow, Bank Myna, and Alexandrine Parakeet by changing these habits. These non-native species are found to be detrimental to the natural ecology of Abu Dhabi, therefore upsetting the fragile equilibrium of the local biodiversity.

Designed with advice from environmental specialists, the guide provides information for professionals in building and urban planning as well as for the general people. It counsels architects and builders on how to prevent unintentionally building areas fit for roosting and nesting for these invading birds. Particular tactics include reducing structural designs that offer cover or perch places, therefore deterring the target species from colonizing.

The DMT's recommendations complement world best standards for sustainable urban development, therefore supporting Abu Dhabi's dedication to environmental protection. The project aims to reduce the environmental impact of invading birds without endangering the wellbeing of the animals or the aesthetic standards of the city by using compassionate and sensible policies.

The guide also encourages locals to engage in environmentally responsible actions, hence raising community awareness. Public education programs will center on the need of keeping common areas clean and of avoiding behaviors that draw invading birds. For example, inhabitants are urged to properly dispose of trash and avoid feeding birds-two important elements in the unbridled spread of invading populations.

The guide offers technical recommendations for urban planners to include bird-deterrent elements into building designs, One uses smooth surfaces that stop perching and installs nets in places likely to be active for birds, These steps not only lower the possibility of infestations but also support the structural integrity and cleanliness of constructions.

According to the DMT, maintaining Abu Dhabi's natural ecosystem depends on control of invading bird numbers। The existence of native species is threatened by their strong competition with each other for resources, which is well documented. The city wants to preserve its ecological legacy by following these rules and keep its status as a contemporary, clean, and ecologically aware city.
