Pigeons are a very common pest in the United Kingdom. They are generally found in cities and urban areas. Pigeon populations have expanded drastically, probably due to feeding by members of the general public. For home and business owners in these areas, the methods for pest control may be limited. All wild birds and their nests are safeguarded 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 frequent method used to regulate pigeons. There are various different strategies used to bird proof buildings. The most widespread method is to fit anti-roost spikes which are metal or plastic spikes that stick up in places 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 which are applied to an area and discourage pigeons from roosting. These methods are effective at stopping pigeons from roosting on certain properties, but will rarely have a considerable effect on pigeons in a larger area.
Qualified pest control companies will be able to inform you of the most effective way to regulate a pigeon infestation. If there are pigeons nesting on your roof or other areas of your property, they will be able to move the pigeons that are roosting and any chicks they may have safely and without injuring the birds, and then fit bird proofing methods to ensure pigeons do not roost there in future.
