Considered by most people to be one of nature’s most beautiful creatures, birds can also pose big problems for both home and business owners, given their high numbers and easy access to our habitat. Birds such as Pigeons, European Starlings, American Crows and House Sparrows are commonly cited as nuisance pests. These hearty species of birds have become well adapted to urban communities and are thriving in the rafters of our roofs and the air ducts of our businesses, causing many issues with noise disruption, unsightly droppings, troublesome nests and the spread of disease. A single pair of pigeons can produce up to 12 offspring a year, so if populations go unchecked, their numbers can grow quickly.
Not only can birds cause property damage, they can also impact our health and safety through the transfer of harmful diseases. It’s reported that there are over 60 viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic diseases carried by birds and their droppings. What’s especially worrisome for residential areas is that many of these diseases are airborne and can easily be transferred to humans simply be being around droppings.
The Bug Meister Pest Control utilizes an integrated approach to bird control that ensures a long-term solution. We have received extensive training on bird behavior, habits and biology, as well as exclusion techniques for homes and businesses.
