# Pigeon Removal & Control — Bay Area

Pigeons don’t leave on their own. Once they establish a roosting site, they return year after year, breeding and expanding the colony. Bird Proof provides professional pigeon removal and long-term exclusion for Bay Area homes — we remove the birds, clean the mess, and seal every entry point so they don’t come back.

 7,500+ homes protected   CSLB-licensed B & C-39   No poisons or traps

## How We Remove Pigeons — Permanently

Bird Proof uses a three-step approach: remove, clean, exclude.

| **01** | ## Remove ### We clear all active nests, eggs, and nesting debris from your roof, eaves, soffits, and any other roosting sites. Everything is bagged and hauled away the same day. |
| --- | --- |

| **02** | ## Clean ### Pigeon droppings are acidic and carry pathogens. We remove all droppings, sanitize affected surfaces, and flush gutters and downspouts if droppings have reached the drainage system. |
| --- | --- |

| **03** | ## Exclude ### We install physical barriers — mesh guards, bird spikes, or both — to seal every entry point pigeons were using. The barriers are low-profile, durable, and designed to last years without maintenance. |
| --- | --- |

This isn’t a one-time shoo-away. It’s a permanent structural solution. The pigeons don’t come back because they physically can’t access the roosting site.

**“Since the bird proofing has been done on my home I’ve had zero issues and my overall neighborhood seems to be a cleaner place. This is a great thing and really does work! I can speak for myself and my 30 plus neighbors.”**

 

**— Bridger T.**

## Why Pigeon Problems Get Worse Without Intervention

A single breeding pair produces up to 12 offspring per year. Those offspring return to the same site to breed. Within two seasons, a small pigeon problem becomes a full infestation.

Common signs of a pigeon problem:

- Droppings on walkways, patios, pool decks, or vehicles
- Cooing sounds from the roofline, especially early morning
- Nesting material in gutters, vents, or under solar panels
- Feathers and debris accumulating on the property
- Staining or corrosion on roof surfaces

 We’ve had an issue with pigeons for a bit now, nesting underneath panels and their falling droppings on our pool deck and into our pool. They came in and cleaned our panels up, cleaned the droppings, installed spikes, & installed panel guards.

## Humane Pigeon Control — No Poisons, No Traps

Bird Proof uses exclusion-only methods. We don’t poison, trap, or relocate pigeons. We remove their access to the roosting site through physical barriers — mesh, spikes, and perimeter sealing. Once the site is sealed, the pigeons leave naturally and don’t return.

This approach is more effective than poisons (which don’t address the roosting site) and more humane than trapping. It’s also permanent — a one-time install, not a recurring service contract.

### Physical barriers

Durable mesh and spikes

### Clean finish

Low-profile installation

### One-time install

No service contract

### No poisons

No traps or relocation

## Pigeon Removal for Solar Panels

Pigeons under solar panels are our most common call. If your pigeon problem is centered on your solar array, see our Solar Mesh / Critter Guard page. If pigeons are also roosting on eaves, vents, or other parts of your roof, this page covers the full-property solution.

## Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can you remove pigeons from my property?

Most residential pigeon jobs are completed in a single visit, typically 1–4 hours. We often schedule within the same week of your call.

Will the pigeons come back after treatment?

No. We install physical barriers that permanently block access to the roosting site. Unlike sprays or ultrasonic devices, exclusion works because the pigeons can’t physically return.

Is pigeon removal humane?

Yes. Exclusion-only methods — no poisons, no traps, no relocation. The pigeons leave naturally once the site is inaccessible.

Do you clean up pigeon droppings?

Yes. Every removal includes full droppings cleanup, surface sanitization, and gutter flush if needed. Same-day haul-away of all waste.

How much does pigeon removal cost?

Depends on the number of roosting sites, roof complexity, and exclusion method. Free on-site quote with exact pricing before any work begins.

Do you handle commercial pigeon removal?

Our sister company Rain Defense handles commercial and multifamily bird control. Contact us and we’ll route your request to the right team.
