Pigeon Exclusion {Before & After}

Getting Rid of Pigeons

As we showed you in this case study, birds can become a nuisance when they start roosting on window ledges and eaves. Pigeons, considered rats with wings by some, leave droppings (guano) on building surfaces which can stain and discolor structural finishes. They build nests and cause noise right outside your windows. Bird droppings also can also contain diseases and ectoparasites and birds can also carry fleas, mites, lice and ticks.



Pigeon Control Methods

We use a few different methods to prevent birds from roosting in hard-to-reach areas. For this property, our bird expert Nic, used metal flashing to construct a bird barrier that created a slope. The malleable flashing was bent and made to fit and blend in perfectly. Nic painted the metal to match the exterior of the structure. This uneven surface is now impossible for the birds to land on and they can no longer perch on the structure.

Metal Flashing Bird Barriers

As you can see, you do not have to live with the birds that have decided that your residence is their home too. These pigeons quickly learned that there were no more flat surfaces for them to comfortably rest upon when they returned to the house. Every surface that they had claimed is now protected with bird resistant barriers. When they try to land on these 45 degree metal angles, they slip and slide and cannot maintain a grip like they used to before.
