What Damage Can Pigeons Do to Your Home or Property?

Understanding the Risks with All City Animal Trapping

As the owner of All City Animal Trapping, I’ve seen firsthand the significant damage that pigeons can cause to homes and properties. While pigeons may seem harmless, their presence can lead to various problems. Here’s what you need to know about the potential damage pigeons can inflict:

Structural Damage

Nesting and Roosting

Pigeons often build nests and roost in attics, eaves, and other sheltered areas, leading to:

Clogged Gutters and Drains: Nesting materials can block gutters and drains, causing water overflow and potential damage to your roof and foundation.
Roof Damage: Pigeon droppings are acidic and can corrode roofing materials over time, leading to leaks and structural damage.
Vent Blockages: Pigeons can block vents and chimneys with their nests, which can interfere with airflow and create fire hazards.

Health Risks

Droppings and Contamination

Pigeon droppings pose serious health risks due to their acidic nature and potential to carry diseases:

Disease Transmission: Pigeon droppings can carry diseases such as histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, and psittacosis, which can be harmful to humans and pets.
Contamination: Droppings can contaminate water sources, food, and surfaces, leading to unsanitary conditions and health hazards.

Damage to Personal Property

Corrosive Droppings

The acidic nature of pigeon droppings can cause damage to various surfaces:

Paint and Finishes: Droppings can corrode paint, metal, and other finishes on cars, outdoor furniture, and buildings.
Staining: Droppings can leave permanent stains on sidewalks, driveways, and other outdoor surfaces.

Noise and Disturbance

Constant Coos and Activity

Pigeons can create a lot of noise, which can be disruptive:

Disturbance: Constant cooing, especially during early mornings, can be a nuisance and disturb your peace.
Aggressive Behavior: Some pigeons can be aggressive, particularly during nesting season, posing a threat to humans and pets.
