PIGEON CONTROL

Pigeon flying in a city, a common bird that can cause structural damage and pollution in urban areas.

The great importance of controlling pigeons

Pigeons are friendly but dangerous birds, as they are vectors of approximately 60 diseases, including flu, conjunctivitis, toxoplasmosis, salmonellosis, psittacosis (an infectious disease that first affects the lungs and later the spleen and liver), cryptococcosis (a disease caused by fungi that develop in dry feces, which infects the lungs), itching (caused by lice and mites that live among their feathers) and dermatitis.

Due to their accumulation of feathers and feces, they can cause serious problems such as clogging of drainage systems, installation of nests in air conditioning systems, blocking of roof gutters and infiltration in the lining, alteration of communication systems when there is accumulation of feces in transmission towers.

There are high concentrations of uric acid and fungal spores in their urine and feces that corrode stone and bronze monuments, destroy paintwork and building plaster, and damage concrete structures and car paintwork.

Furthermore, they can also cause accidents during flight, as they can collide with aircraft. This collision can lead to serious accidents, as the impact force of a bird weighing up to 2.5 kg with a moving aircraft can reach 5 tons, depending on the aircraft's speed.
