PROBLEMS PIGEONS CAN CAUSE
Pigeons are very filthy birds and cause a lot of damage and disease with their droppings. Pigeon droppings have been known to have caused many slips and fall as well as blocking vents, downspouts and gutters when combined with feathers and nesting materials, causing flooding and roof damage. Pigeon droppings host a plethora of diseases including toxoplasmosis, salmonella, encephalitis, meningitis, and histoplasmosis. If that isn’t bad enough pigeons carry other pests with them including, ticks, mites fleas, and lice. There are some things you can do to avoid getting pigeons in the first place.
HOW TO AVOID GETTING PIGEONS
The first step of pigeon control is prevention. Pigeon populations are sustained almost exclusively through deliberate feeding. Elderly and single people are normally the individuals who will go out up to 7 days a week and feed the birds, allowing them to multiply quickly. Around your home and business, you can make sure you aren’t inadvertently contributing to these feedings by not leaving out food, such as dog food that they could get into to, or water. To discourage roosting or perching on windowsills and roofs as well as gutters you can place anti-roosting spikes which are highly effective in deterring them. This will go a long way in pigeon proofing your home or business.
