A Professional Pest Control Guide
Think you might have spotted pigeons in your office building? Don’t worry, we are here to help! From what warning signs you should be looking out for, to how our pigeon pest control can help, here is your complete guide to pigeons and how to rid your office space of them for good.
Identify the Problem
First of all, you need to be sure that the problem you are dealing with is actually pigeons. There are a number of clear indicators of pigeons, such as:
- Birds settling on roofs and ledges
- Continual bird noise, particularly cries from young chicks
- Finding nesting materials throughout your office premises
- Stock that is damaged as a result of pecking or droppings
- A build-up of droppings in roosting areas
- Debris from nests and feathers in guttering and drains, leading to damp damage
People think that pigeons are a problem for older properties. While these birds do thrive in ledges, eaves, and beams, they are just as good at setting up homes in newer builds. So, no matter the age of your office building, be sure to keep an eye out.
Why is Professional Attention Needed?
Pigeons aren’t harmless – they carry a number of diseases, many of which can be transmitted to humans. Unlike many other birds, pigeons nest in their own faeces attracting mites and aiding in the transmittance of other diseases.
The health risks of these birds aside, they can also lead to a deterioration in the appearance and integrity of your property. Pigeon droppings are not only unsightly but are highly acidic – and when they come into contact with a wide range of building materials, they can cause a lot of damage. We’ve seen just how bad this can be, with ceiling and wall collapses being the worst-case scenarios.
