How to Control Pigeon Poop
Pigeon droppings are odorous, unsightly, and harmful to human health. These bothersome hazards seem to be a constant nuisance in many parts of the world. If you would like to protect your home’s exterior and your family’s health from the unpleasant effects of pigeon poop, consider the following measures.
Have pigeons removed from your property.
If pigeons are breeding, nesting and pooping on your property, the first step to take toward controlling their droppings is to expel these birds from your rooftop, gables, awnings and other popular pigeon hangouts. An experienced bird control specialist can help resolve even the troublesome of pigeon infestations by setting highly effective traps and removing pigeons from your property.
Properly clean existing droppings.
Pigeons are called “flying rats” for a reason—these relentlessly pesky birds carry ornithosis, cryptococcosis, toxoplasmosis, salmonella and a variety of other diseases. These illnesses are typically transmitted to humans via direct or indirect contact with pigeon poop. For this reason, it is essential to wear proper protective clothing and respiratory gear when removing pigeon droppings. Because of the dangers of removing pigeon poop without experience and because scant traces of pigeon poop attract other pigeons, a bird control specialist should be entrusted with this task.
Enact bird control and repellent measures.
Once all traces of the expelled pigeon population have been removed, protect your property with pigeon prevention devices. You can choose to erect bird spikes, lay pigeon nets or install an electric bird repellent system. A combination of these measures is sure to deter pigeons from causing further damage to your home, cars and health.
