Harmful Bird (Pigeon) Control Program Issues and Product Methods
Various harmful bird species carry different types of pathogens, especially pigeons, which are often referred to as "rats of the sky." Their acidic droppings pose significant risks to buildings and human daily life. Common preventive measures include repairing damaged iron screens on kitchen exhaust vents, promptly fixing holes in walls and eaves, and warning neighbors not to feed wild birds in violation of regulations. If harmful bird species have already settled in, physical deterrent methods are typically employed, including the latest drone deterrents, various types of bird spikes, high-voltage electric grid lines, and objects with sound and various colored shapes to scare birds away from target buildings. These methods are usually effective in the short term.
Based on our experience, the following methods are reliable and cost-effective: installing bird spikes of various sizes and specifications on porches and corners, especially swing-type pigeon spikes; using inexpensive, thin, transparent plastic nets on balconies and open porches to block and restrict bird entry.
Infrared electronic bird trapping cage
If only a small number of birds are causing harm and other methods cannot be used, we recommend using photovoltaic folding trapping cages for capture. After capture, the birds can be subjected to semi-lethal electric shocks for post-processing or released to a distant location. It is important to note that pigeons have excellent memory and may quickly return, so releasing them nearby is not advisable.
Bird control medication
If there is a large number of birds causing harm, especially in hard-to-reach areas such as rooftops, non-lethal hallucinogenic drugs can be used as a last resort, in accordance with North American laws.
Frequently Asked Questions about Pigeon Control
How can we safely and legally use medication to control harmful birds?
Please use large-sized corn pellets to prevent accidental harm to non-target bird species. The medication has a low level of toxicity and should be placed in enclosed boxes.
