Pigeons are fun when they’re in the park but when they move on to your property they can become a serious nuisance.  They can be noisy, messy and can create structural damage to your home if they move in to the crooks and crannies of your roof or windows.  They are notorious for leaving dirty droppings all over the place and can also carry diseases which may spread to your family or pets.  If you notice a pigeon problem starting on your property, it’s best to nip it in the bud.

The very best way to control pigeons is to exclude them.  That means cleaning out the areas on your home where they have built nests or could potentially start to build them.  Once those areas are cleaned, you can place simple and inexpensive wire mesh or netting around them to prevent the birds from coming back.  The other important thing to remember about controlling pigeons is that if you feed them, they will come.  Make sure you don’t have ready sources of snacks for them around your home or getting rid of them will be an impossible task.

You can try to set up pigeon prevention in your home, or you can call a professional pest control service.  Professionals can take care of your home’s exterior quickly and efficiently with minimal cost simply because they have the experience.  They can also help you spot other problem areas and advise you about additional concerns that they spot while working on your property.

You may be busy with work, school and everything else that your life has going on—but if you continue to put off dealing with your pigeon problem it will only get worse.  You don’t want to risk damage to your property or your family’s health and safety.  For a free Los Angles pest control inspection, give us a call at 888-675-0258 or go to www.accuracypluscalifornia.com.

Hawk Decoys Scare Pest Birds

Are you tired of chasing pigeons off your property? Pigeons are small birds that can be quite destructive. They can be hard on electrical equipment and lighting, and also present health problems – pigeon droppings have been shown to carry up to 60 known diseases.

You don’t have to use noisy deterrents to get rid of pest birds. You can use natural predators to scare the birds away. One of the strongest predators to pigeons and other nuisance birds is a hawk. Hawks are known to speed out of the sky and dive at prey, such as pigeons.

When you set up a decoy of a hawk, it’s important to position the decoy so that its outline is visible and it casts a shadow. This will trick the pigeons and smaller birds into believing that there’s a natural predator – and the best things is to move on.

When it comes to controlling pests, there are always lots of options. Our inspections include preparing recommendations for all kinds of pests around your home, including pigeons.
