WHY IS PIGEON CONTROL IMPORTANT?

Pigeons have a way of turning up where they’re not wanted—rooflines, vents, balconies, and signs. Over time, their droppings stain surfaces, their nests block airflow, and the constant presence starts to wear on your space.

What begins as a minor nuisance can slowly turn into property damage and cleanup headaches.

1. Health Concerns

Their droppings can attract insects, carry bacteria, and trigger breathing issues if left to build up. Cleanup isn’t just unpleasant—it can be risky without the right gear.

2. Protecting Your Home

Nesting pigeons don’t care where they settle—in soffits, under solar panels, or behind vents. Their waste eats through paint and metal, leaving permanent damage if ignored.

3. Keeping Things Clean

No one wants guests—or customers—stepping through bird mess. Whether it’s your front porch or storefront entry, pigeons make clean spaces feel neglected.

Bobcat Wildlife and Pest installed Incide PC™ insulation in our attic space. They were quick, quiet, and did a great job. Our home is warmer and more comfortable now. Well worth it!

Highly recommend this group!!! Within 24 hours of my “something stinks” panic call, one of the techs, Ronnie, was at our place taking care of the animals that found their final resting place in our vents… and patched it up so we wouldn’t have this happen again.
