How to Manage Bird Populations on Your Property

Businesses frequently deal with pest birds, which can be both a nuisance and a health threat. These birds are capable of damaging property, transmitting diseases, and creating an eyesore. Pigeons and seagulls, which are common in urban areas, are especially problematic. Various factors complicate efforts to remove them, such as:

• Urban Diet: While pigeons naturally feed on grains and seeds, in urban environments, they adjust by scavenging processed foods such as leftover takeout and discarded food from trash bins.
• Breeding: Pigeons can breed throughout the year when food is plentiful, with their peak breeding season typically from March to July.
• Nesting: Seagulls often return to the same nesting site annually, which makes it difficult to remove them once they’ve established a home.
• Longevity: Seagulls can live for up to 40 years, giving them ample time to continue breeding throughout their long lifespan.

How to Keep Birds Away

The easiest way to keep birds away is by eliminating their food sources, though achieving this in a busy urban environment can be difficult. If birds are creating issues for your business, there are several approaches to consider, including:

• Secure Trash: Make sure trash bins are securely closed and avoid leaving exposed trash bags that could attract birds.
• Nesting Barriers: Prevent birds from nesting by blocking off potential sites, such as installing barriers on window ledges.
• Hide Food: Keep food sources hidden and out of reach to discourage scavenging.
