I used to professionally catch birds in warehouses. If they get to be an issue, put a bird mist net as close to the ceiling or those solid struts as possible. Probably up on top of that structure there if there is access. You may need to watch a video on how to set up the net. You usually need some kind of support on the sides, like a stick or pole. Then get a cane pole or something long with walmart bag on the end to make noise and shake it, chasing the bird towards the net.
You can also sometimes find success with a cardboard box propped up with a stick and string. Put some seed under and wait for them to go under.
I’m just a grunt so I don’t get to make big calls like that, but I actually have setup a deadfall trap with a milk crate and a string lmao, I might go get some seed later and see if I can bait it
Actually, looking at the video, if you can’t get a net up high, but you can lure him consistently onto a shelf. Look at his preferred flight off of the shelf, set up a net in that flight path, and next time he lands, stand opposite of the net and stomp, clap, shout, and thrust something at him, preferably thrust something high to keep his flight pattern low and horizontal. Do it suddenly once he’s comfortable. He can see nets, but may panic enough to fly directly away from you into the net.

I see! Check out my other comment For a less ambitious net solution.
