Pigeons are an exceptionally common pest in the UK. They are often found in cities and urban areas. Pigeon populations have expanded noticeably, most likely due to feeding by members of the public. For home and business owners in these areas, the methods for pest control may be restricted. All wild birds and their nests are protected by law and should not be killed unless they create a health and safety danger to members of the general public.
However, bird proofing is a popular method used to control pigeons. There are various different strategies used to bird proof properties. The most common method is to install anti-roost spikes which are metal or plastic spikes that stick up in areas where pigeons roost and stop them from doing so. Other methods for bird proofing properties include bird nets or types of gel or other liquids that are applied to an area and stop pigeons from roosting. These methods are effective at preventing pigeons from roosting on certain properties, but will hardly ever have a substantial impact on pigeons in a bigger area.
Experienced pest control companies can advise you of the most effective way to manage a pigeon infestation. If there are pigeons nesting on your roof or other areas of your home, they will be able to move the pigeons that are roosting and any chicks they may have safely and without hurting the birds, and then fit bird proofing techniques to make sure pigeons do not roost there in future.
