Pigeon Removal and Bird Control Services in Denver

Why Pigeons Are a Problem in Colorado Neighborhoods

In urban and suburban areas throughout the Front Range, pigeons thrive. Their adaptability allows them to nest year-round and exploit human-provided food and shelter. Unfortunately, this means they often nest on rooftops, under solar panels, or near HVAC vents—leading to structural damage and noise issues.

Common nuisance concerns with pigeons include:

• Permanent residency: Once established, pigeons rarely leave without professional removal

• Constant noise: Cooing and flapping become daily disruptions, especially near windows and sleeping areas

• Droppings everywhere: Acidic droppings deface concrete, roofing, and painted surfaces

• Health risks: Dried droppings can carry bacteria and fungal spores harmful to humans and pets

• Roof and attic nesting: Clogs vents, damages insulation, and encourages other pests

In addition to being persistent, pigeons reproduce quickly—making early intervention essential. If left unchecked, a small flock can turn into a larger infestation within a single season.

Fast Facts About Pigeon Biology and Behavior

Understanding pigeon behavior helps explain why removal efforts must be strategic and comprehensive. These birds are biologically and behaviorally hardwired to stay close to their nesting areas, even when disturbed.

Important details every homeowner should know:

• Breeding habits: Pigeons lay 1–2 eggs at a time and breed throughout the year

• Diet: Seeds, grains, fruits, greens, and even insects—making most environments ideal

• Preferred nesting spots: Roofs, ledges, solar panel arrays, attic vents, gutters, and chimneys

• Species info: Pigeons, also called “rock doves,” originated in Asia and are now fully adapted to urban environments

Because they’re territorial and loyal to their nesting site, DIY deterrents often fail without addressing the root cause. That’s why working with an experienced wildlife control provider like APCS is so important.
