Can I remove pigeons and their nests myself?

Pigeon infestations pose several risks. Pigeon droppings can contain harmful bacteria, fungi, and parasites that can lead to respiratory issues and diseases. The corrosive nature of their droppings can also cause damage to structures over time. Accumulated droppings can create slippery surfaces, increasing the risk of slip and fall accidents. Additionally, pigeons can attract other pests, such as mites and ticks, leading to additional infestations and health concerns.

Protecting your garden or crops from pigeons can be achieved through various methods. Installing bird netting around the garden area creates a physical barrier that prevents pigeons from accessing the plants and crops. Scare devices such as reflective tape or decoy predators can also be effective in deterring pigeons. Regularly removing fallen fruits, seeds, or other food sources from the ground reduces the attractiveness of the area to pigeons. Implementing these preventive measures can help safeguard your garden or crops from potential damage caused by pigeons.

The cost to get rid of birds varies depending on the severity of the infestation and the size of the area to be treated. Birch Fumigator offers a variety of pest control services to suit your specific needs. Contact Birch Fumigator for a free quote today.

Food establishments can be attractive to pigeons due to the abundance of food sources available. Pigeons are opportunistic feeders and can be drawn to outdoor dining areas, garbage containers with accessible food scraps, and improperly stored or exposed food items. To deter pigeons, it is essential to properly manage and dispose of food waste, ensure that garbage containers are securely closed and clean, and consider implementing physical barriers or deterrents that prevent pigeons from accessing outdoor dining areas. Implementing these measures can help reduce the attractiveness of food establishments to pigeons and minimize the risk of infestations.

There is no surefire way to prevent birds from returning to a specific spot, but there are some things that you can do to make your property less attractive to them. One of the most effective methods is to install exclusion devices, like netting or spikes, around the area where they are problematic. You can also try deterring them with loud noises or water sprays. Finally, make sure to clean up any spilled food or seedlings, as these can attract birds.
