Urban Pest Bird Problems

The pigeon is the number one urban pest bird, followed by the house sparrow. Pigeons commonly roost in man-made structures, causing millions of dollars in damage each year. In one year, a single pigeon produces an average 26 pounds of waste. The uric acid in bird droppings can corrode stone, metal and masonry. Their droppings are a breeding ground for bacteria, fungal agents and parasites. When breathed in by humans, fungal spores from bird droppings can case Histoplasmosis, an acute respiratory disease that can be fatal. When sparrows build their nests in gutters, clogs can cause water damage to buildings. Woodpeckers are another common nuisance birds, drilling into trees, siding and soffits with their powerful beaks as they search for insects, leaving unsightly damage in their wake.
