As property owners in Edmonton and Calgary face increasing challenges with pest birds, finding effective and humane solutions has become paramount. With over 20 years of industry experience, All About Pests delivers ultimate bird control services tailored to Alberta’s unique urban environment.
Understanding Alberta’s Bird Problems
The bustling cities of Edmonton and Calgary present ideal environments for pest birds. These unwanted avian visitors find ample shelter in commercial buildings, residential properties, and industrial facilities. The combination of urban architecture and flowing food sources creates perfect conditions for persistent bird populations.
Common Pest Birds in Our Region
Pigeons dominate the urban landscape, making themselves at home on ledges, rooftops, and building facades. These birds adapt remarkably well to city life, establishing permanent colonies that can quickly overwhelm properties. Magpies and blackbirds, native to Alberta, present their own set of challenges with aggressive behavior during nesting seasons. Meanwhile, sparrows and starlings create issues by nesting in small crevices and building gaps.
Health and Property Risks
Bird infestations pose significant risks that extend beyond mere nuisance. Their presence can lead to serious health concerns and substantial property damage that requires immediate attention.
Health Hazards
Bird droppings harbor dangerous pathogens that can cause respiratory issues and other health complications. The accumulation of feathers and nesting materials can trigger allergic reactions and create unsanitary conditions around your property.
Property Damage
The acidic nature of bird droppings accelerates the deterioration of building materials, affecting:
– Roofing materials and gutters
– Exterior paint and finishes
– HVAC systems and equipment
– Architectural features
