Volataria is a Portuguese specialist in bird control using trained birds of prey, established in 1999 and based in Bombarral. A pioneer in this approach in Portugal, the company uses falconry techniques to manage bird activity where it can pose risks to safety, public health, operations or cultural heritage. Volataria describes its method as an effective, environmentally conscious alternative to other bird-management techniques, and draws on more than two decades of experience, ongoing development and purpose-built equipment to tailor programmes to each client.

Its services include preventing bird strikes and managing wildlife risks at airports; protecting food production and storage facilities from contamination; controlling large concentrations of gulls and other birds at landfills and ecological parks; and safeguarding monuments and listed buildings with methods suited to conservation. The company also offers captive falcon breeding under a licensed breeder permit. Volataria serves a range of settings and lists organisations including ANA Aeroportos, TAP, Nestlé, Valorsul and the Mosteiro de Alcobaça among its clients.
