Pigeon Issues For Denver Homes & Businesses

November 16, 2009

Pigeons are filthy birds that thrive in Denver’s urban environment. That’s because of the ease in acquiring food and the ability to find safe nesting areas. Commercial buildings and even private homes offer a variety of nesting sites with their exteriors full of crooks and nannies that appeal to pigeons. Commonly referred to as flying rats, these day-time pest birds act very similarly to city rats and mice. They forage for anything edible and are not deterred by attempts to scare them off with replicas of their predators. It is also not unusual to see pigeons being fed by humans in parks and nearby buildings but this only contributes to pigeon problems and should be discouraged. While they appear harmless, pigeons can carry many infectious diseases like Histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, toxoplasmosis, and can spread be blamed for conditions that cause salmonella and food poisoning. Their droppings are responsible for accelerating the aging process of man-made structures and are known to cause slips and falls.
