Is It Important to Get Rid of Pigeons?

Pigeons can transmit various diseases to anyone who comes into contact with the infestation. ​ If a bird infestation gets out of hand then their nesting and droppings can cause significant damage to the building. ​ Having pest controllers proof against pigeon infestations is crucial to manage bird problems.

Diseases Caused by Pigeons

Diseases carried by pigeons can be very harmful to humans, meaning pigeon infestations pose a huge health hazard. These diseases can be transmitted through pigeon droppings, nesting, or feathers. ​

​

Pigeons can also carry fleas and ticks, which can lead to further insect infestations where they are nesting.

​Diseases caused by pigeons:

  • Salmonella

  • Psittacosis

  • E.Coli

  • Fungal infections

Damage Caused by Pigeons

Pigeon droppings are highly acidic, and a build up of fouling can corrode the surface they are nesting on.

​

The droppings can also damage air conditioning units and insulation. This causes a health risk for anyone who has to work around them. ​

 

Bird nesting materials can cause blockages in drains and gutters. ​

 

Nesting materials, e.g. twigs and straw, are also very flammable. This means that pigeon nests are actually a fire hazard.

Pigeon Spikes

Our specialist bird team can install a stainless steel point system to prevent pigeons from settling on ledges, gutters, and sills. ​

 

Installing bird spikes to an area means that pigeons can no longer sit or settle there. This means that pigeons won't be able to nest wherever there are spikes in place.

​

Benefits of pigeon spiking:

Versatility - the point system can be installed on any protruding surfaces and act as a deterrent for all birds infestations.

Humane - when a pigeon lands on the spiking it causes them to become unbalanced. This encourages the bird to settle somewhere else

Durable - the spikes are made from stainless steel, which doesn't rust. When installed correctly, pigeon spikes can last for many years, meaning it can be a long term solution for birds.
