Pigeons and other nuisance birds such as starlings are comfortable living in an urban
environment where they tend to scavenge for food, often in substantial numbers. They are
able to breed all year round and often choose to roost on signs or the rafters of commercial
buildings.
The droppings they produce are not only unsightly but can cause long term damage. Fresh
droppings, whilst unpleasant, pose no risk to health. It is dried droppings, which can be
inhaled as dust and carried on the wind, that can potentially spread infection.
Pigeons have been known to carry diseases such as pigeon ornithosis, encephalitis,
histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, toxoplasmosis, pseudo-tuberculosis, and salmonella food
poisoning.

An Agouti Pest technician will employ a variety of techniques include large bird and pigeon
nets, taut wires or blunt anti pigeon spikes which can be put on buildings to keep them off.
Alternatively, stupefying materials may be used or cage traps be set to catch pest birds, which
are then humanely destroyed.
