Why Professional Intervention is Necessary
When you notice signs of pigeons, such as large flocks gathering or piles of droppings, it is often the tip of the iceberg. Pigeons can be found roosting on ledges, rooftops, and eaves, creating a mess that is difficult to remove. While the common pigeon (or rock dove) may seem harmless, a pigeon infestation poses serious risks.
Pigeon droppings are acidic and can damage structures, corroding building materials and ruining aesthetics. Furthermore, these birds carry diseases like histoplasmosis and parasites such as bird mites and ticks. Professional bird control is essential because DIY repellent tactics often fail to discourage pigeons long-term. Our control company uses proven strategies to manage pigeon numbers and reduce the health risks associated with their presence.
Identifying Pigeon Activity and Nesting Sites
Pigeons often seek out sheltered areas that provide easy access to food sources. You might find pigeon nests in gutters, behind signage, or near vents. Our process begins with a thorough inspection to identify these nesting and roosting areas. We look for the buildup of nesting material, feathers, and poop to determine the severity of the bird infestations. Understanding pigeon behaviors helps us target the specific zones where pigeons roost and congregate.
Effective Pigeon Removal & Deterrents
Humane Exclusion and Trapping
We prioritize using safe and humane methods to get rid of pigeons. Since pigeons are not protected by the same federal laws as native migratory birds, we have more flexibility in control methods, but we always operate ethically. Our pigeon pest removal services often involve trapping and shooting (in specific extreme cases where permitted) or, more commonly, live trapping and relocation.
However, the most effective long-term solution is exclusion. We install bird netting to block access to large open areas and vents where birds nest. Netting is a heavy-duty physical barrier that provides immediate proofing against future entry.
Deterrents to Keep Birds Away
To deter pigeons from landing on your property, we utilize various deterrent methods. Bird spikes are highly effective for ledges, roof peaks, and signage, preventing the birds from finding a comfortable spot to roost. We may also use shock tracks or gel repellents that make surfaces uncomfortable, conditioning the birds to avoid your building.
These control services are designed to break the birds' strong homing instincts. Once pigeons establish a roost, they are stubborn; therefore, combining removal with robust deterrents is the only way to solve the pigeon problem permanently.
Cleanup and Sanitation
Managing the Mess
Removal is only half the battle. Pigeon droppings and nesting debris are hazardous. As mentioned, pigeon droppings are acidic and can damage structures, but they also become a breeding ground for bacteria and fungi. Disturbed dried droppings can release spores that lead to respiratory issues.
Our pest management team provides thorough cleanup and sanitation services. We safely remove built-up waste, pressure wash contaminated surfaces, and sanitize the area to eliminate mites and pathogens. This step is crucial to ensure the safety of the building's occupants and to remove the scent markers that attract other nuisance birds.
Preventing Future Infestations
Pigeons make themselves at home where they find three things: shelter, water, and food. Pigeons often flock to areas with easy access to food, such as open dumpsters, outdoor dining areas, or spilled bird seed. Limiting access to food sources is a critical part of wildlife control.
We advise property owners on how to secure trash and reduce attractants. Additionally, we ensure that potential entry points, such as eaves and attic vents, are sealed. By combining habitat modification with physical barriers, we ensure your property does not support large flocks of birds.
