Having pigeons on your property can quickly turn from an unsightly nuisance, to an expensive maintenance and health hazard. Pigeons cause tens of millions of dollars per year in property damage to commercial and residential structures. Pigeon droppings are very acidic, and can corrode metal and concrete, while their feathers and nest debris can damage and contaminate ventilation systems, HVAC machinery, pool equipment, and so on.

In addition to their inherent damage to property, Pigeons also pose a health risk to humans. Pigeon droppings can spread dangerous pathogens, resulting in numerous types of lung disease. Additionally, pigeon infestations can also result in the sudden arrival of certain ectoparasites, including lice, ticks, mites, and even bed bugs.
