Pigeons are a very widespread pest in the United Kingdom. They are usually found in cities and urban areas. Pigeon populations have increased considerably, 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 limited. All wild birds and their nests are protected by law and should not be killed unless they create a health and safety threat to members of the general public.
However, bird proofing is a typical method used to regulate pigeons. There are a variety of different strategies used to bird proof properties. The most widespread approach is to fit anti-roost spikes which are metal or plastic spikes that protrude 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 prevent pigeons from roosting. These methods are effective at protecting against pigeons from roosting on certain properties, but will seldom have a substantial impact on pigeons in a bigger area.
Experienced pest control companies will be able to give you advice on the most effective way to control a pigeon infestation. If there are pigeons nesting on your roof or other areas of your house, they’ll be able to move the pigeons that are roosting and any chicks they could have safely and without injuring the birds, and then install bird proofing solutions to ensure pigeons do not roost there in future.
