There are few things more annoying than a pigeon infestation around your home or business. These birds are messy, noisy, and their droppings are actually toxic besides being unpleasant to look at. The million dollar question people often ask is, "how do I get rid of pigeons"?
Once a group of pigeons finds a new place to nest, typically more and more of the pests will flock to the new area to roost. Pigeon feces contain a pheromone that signals nearby pigeons that they should gather in the area. The bottom line is, once you see a handful of pigeons, you can usually expect to see more on the way. The good news is that it is never too late to get rid of pigeons by using repellent or a removal service.
Common Pigeon Removal Methods
Pigeon control can be a tricky business. While not all deterrent methods are guaranteed to work, there are a number of things you can try yourself.
Block Off the Entrance - Pigeons that like to roost in your attic or beneath the ledge of your roof can't get to these spots if they are blocked off. Try using netting or metal grates to prevent birds from accessing areas around your property.
Make a Lot of Noise - Making loud noises whenever the pests land. Pots and pans, firecrackers, sirens, all of these noisemakers can scare invading birds away. However, making loud noises requires consistency and that your neighbors won't be bothered by all the ruckus.
Mirrors and Fake Owls - If you have ever seen a fake plastic owl or small mirrors dangling from ledge of a building, there is a good chance that the building owners have experienced a pigeon infestation. Pigeons are frightened around reflective mirrors or what they think is a bird of prey. If you don't mind cluttering up the roof space around your property, we suggest giving this a try.
