Understanding Pigeon Behavior and Habitat

In our experience at Birds and Geese Beware, Inc., effective pigeon control starts with a solid understanding of pigeon behavior and habitat. By exploring these areas, we can better implement deterrent strategies in places like New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut.

Pigeon on a rooftop in NYC

Feral pigeons, familiar in urban areas, favor nesting locations that mimic their natural cliffside dwellings. These often include man-made structures like balconies, ledges, eaves, and the undersides of bridges. Regarding their diet, pigeons are primarily granivorous, meaning their diet consists mostly of seeds and grains, but they have adapted to consume a wide range of foods, particularly in city settings where human refuse is readily available.

The Impact of Pigeons on Health and Safety

Health risks associated with pigeons stem from their droppings and the diseases these can carry, including psittacosis, salmonella, and various bacterial infections. Droppings also lead to safety hazards, creating slippery surfaces. Moreover, pigeon populations can spread diseases and parasites, which are concerns for both human and other bird species' health. Our team works diligently to implement deterrents like Bird Netting and Bird Spikes to mitigate these health and safety issues.

Disease Transmission

The droppings of pigeons and the diseases that they can transmit, such as psittacosis, salmonella, and a variety of bacterial infections, are the source of the health concerns that are linked with animals of this species. The creation of slippery surfaces is another safety concern that can be caused by droppings.

Additionally, pigeon populations have the potential to spread diseases and parasites, which are a cause for concern for the health of humans as well as other species of birds. The members of our team are working hard to adopt preventative measures such as bird spikes and bird netting in order to reduce the risk of these health and safety concerns.

How We Keep Pigeons Away from Your Property

In addressing the nuisance posed by pigeons, Birds and Geese Beware, Inc. offers comprehensive solutions tailored to the urban environments of New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut. We focus on practicality and effectiveness, ensuring that our methods for pigeon control meet the diverse needs of our clients and adhere to humane practices.

Exclusion Techniques

Exclusion is a pillar of our pigeon control strategy. By establishing physical barriers, we discourage pigeons from landing, nesting, or feeding at unwelcome locations. Our installation of Bird Netting is a premier defense against infestation, effectively sealing off areas under eaves, balconies, and air conditioning units. Bird Spikes also form part of our arsenal, preventing pigeons from perching on ledges with a system that is both humanely designed and inconspicuous.

Another aspect of exclusion includes Bird Wire, which creates an unstable landing area, deterring pigeons without causing harm. Our Hard Exclusion technique, which sometimes involves the use of more robust materials like metal sheeting, provides a sturdier solution against more persistent pigeon problems. For the specific issue of seabirds or seagulls, we use a Wire-Grid Deterrent Service, which is particularly effective along coastal areas.

Humane Trapping & Removal

In scenarios where exclusion is either not feasible or only part of the necessary response, we implement Humane Trapping and Removal. In this delicate process, we use traps to capture pigeons safely and then relocate them to suitable areas away from human habitats. This method is coupled with our understanding of the pigeons' biology, habits, and nesting behaviors, allowing us to devise the most effective trapping plans while adhering to wildlife regulations.

Our pigeon removal service also involves the subsequent clean-up and disposal in a manner that is environmentally responsible. Through all of these efforts, we ensure an effective solution to pigeon problems while maintaining a high standard of ethical treatment for the birds.

Preventive Measures and Deterrents

Implementing effective pigeon control measures is crucial for maintaining a clean and safe environment. Birds and Geese Beware, Inc. specializes in a variety of deterrents and prevention strategies tailored to protect properties in New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut from the nuisance of pigeon infestations and the risks they pose to habitats and structures. Through physical barriers, chemical repellents, and advanced technology, we mitigate the pigeon problem by discouraging nesting and roosting on buildings.

Physical Barriers and Modifications

To prevent pigeons from settling on buildings, our team installs robust physical barriers, such as Bird Netting and Bird Spikes. The Bird Netting is designed to deny access to common roosting sites like rafters, ledges, and vents, effectively deterring pigeons from nesting. Bird Spikes offer an additional level of protection, especially for surfaces like window sills and gutters, discouraging birds without harming them. We often incorporate Bird Wire to prevent pigeons from landing on flat surfaces, and for larger birds such as seabirds or seagulls, we provide specialized Wire-Grid Deterrent Services.

Chemical Repellents and Birth Control

Our approach also includes the use of non-toxic chemical applications, such as Liquid Bird Repellents and Bird Repellent Gel, which create an unwelcoming environment for pigeons without causing them harm. Additionally, we employ Bird Hazers & Fogging Deterrents to disperse aromatics that are unpleasant to pigeons. A critical and humane element of our bird control strategy is the deployment of OvoControl Bird Birth Control, a chemical product that safely reduces pigeon populations by preventing eggs from hatching.

Technology Based Deterrents

We leverage the latest advancements in bird control technology to provide clients with cutting-edge solutions. Laser Bird Control systems involve projecting a laser to deter pigeons, capitalizing on their instinctive avoidance of sudden light changes. Reflective Bird Diverters and Visual Bird Deterrents exploit pigeons' aversion to unusual visual patterns. For comprehensive bird pest management, our service also includes the installation of Shock Track systems, which impart a mild electric shock to pigeons attempting to land. These methods, combined with Sound Bird Deterrents which emit distress and predator calls, create an environment that pigeons avoid, thereby protecting the integrity of your property's ventilation systems and other pigeon-attracting features.

Cleanup and Restoration After Pigeons

Pigeons, while seemingly harmless, can cause considerable damage to structures due to their droppings and nesting habits. Proper cleanup and restoration are critical in mitigating health risks and structural damages. As Birds and Geese Beware, Inc., we specialize in addressing these concerns in New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut.

Health Hazards in Cleaning Pigeon Droppings

Pigeon droppings are not just unsightly; they pose significant health risks due to the presence of bacteria and uric acid. The droppings can harbor pathogens responsible for diseases such as histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, and psittacosis. When cleaning, it is essential to use protective gear and specialized cleaning agents to safely remove pigeon waste. We follow stringent protocols to ensure that all pigeon droppings are cleaned thoroughly to protect your health and restore the hygiene of your property.

Repairing Damage and Preventing Return

The acidity of pigeon droppings can corrode and damage structures over time, including gutters, rooftop installations, and building facades. Our team assesses the extent of the damage and performs necessary repairs to ensure the integrity of your structure is not compromised. To prevent pigeons from returning, we implement a variety of deterrents such as Bird Netting, Bird Spikes, and Shock Track systems. These deterrents are installed strategically to disrupt the habits, mating, and nesting behaviors of pigeons, making the area less attractive to them and reduce the likelihood of future damage and infestations.

When to Hire Experts for Pigeon Problems

Pigeon populations can grow quickly and become a nuisance, creating messes, noises, and potentially causing damage to properties. Signs that you may need expert intervention include persistent pigeon presence, damage to structures, and accumulation of droppings, which can be a health hazard and a fire risk. We understand that pigeons can compromise the aesthetic and functional aspects of both residential and commercial properties. Experts from Birds and Geese Beware, Inc. are adept at addressing these concerns by not only assessing the presence of problematic birds but also by implementing integrated strategies to mitigate risks and disturbances they may cause.

Assessing and Implementing Control Strategies

Our initial approach involves an inspection to gauge the extent of the pigeon problem. After identifying critical areas and understanding pigeon behavior, our experts from Birds and Geese Beware, Inc. design tailored solutions. Installation of deterrents such as Bird Netting, Bird Spikes, and Bird Wire is carried out professionally to preserve the integrity of your facility without harming the birds. Advanced solutions like Laser Bird Control and Shock Track are utilized for their effectiveness and minimal visual impact.

For more aggressive infestations, we recommend our Hard Exclusion services or Wire-Grid Deterrent Services, which are particularly useful in deterring seabirds or seagulls. Visual Bird Deterrents alongside Sound Bird Deterrents can effectively disrupt the comfort pigeons find in their chosen habitat, encouraging them to relocate.

Solar Panel Bird Deterrents protect your investment from nesting and the associated damages. In cases where behavior modification is the objective, we use innovative methods such as OvoControl Bird Birth Control to manage pigeon populations humanely. Our use of Bird Hazers & Fogging Deterrents is another testament to our commitment to providing comprehensive solutions for pigeon control.

Our company excels in the safe capture and removal of nuisance birds, ensuring that your pigeon problem is handled with the utmost professionalism and efficiency. It’s our expertise in the biology, habits, and habitats of pigeons—including their mating, reproduction, and nesting behaviors—that allows us to implement control methods that are both effective and ethical. This knowledge informs the strategic placement of deterrents and the development of customized control plans that align with the specific requirements of each customer.
