Birds get mites just like people get lice. Removal of birds can leave bird mites behind and in need of a new host. Oftentimes, these bird mites move inside, infesting a home or office, and cause itching and discomfort to the occupants. Official Pest Prevention won’t let this happen to you. Each Sacramento and Fresno bird service we provide includes treatment for mites, followed by a thorough cleaning with a disinfectant designed to get rid of viruses and transmittable diseases associated with birds and their droppings.
There’s no way for your property to maintain cleanliness or run efficiently if it is covered in bird droppings. In addition to the health risks, the mess created by birds will also drive down your house or commercial space’s value. After all, what employee wants to work in a building that’s been overrun by pigeons? And what home-buyer wants to consider a property that’s covered in bird droppings? Official Pest Prevention offers effective bird trapping and baiting, and can also install preventative spikes and provide hot treatments to ensure our work is as comprehensive as it can be.
While many homeowners believe the best way to deal with wasps is to crush them, the truth is that when wasps are crushed, their bodies release a chemical pheromone that draws other wasps close by to their nests. That’s why at Official Pest Prevention, our seasoned pest control techs will either remove the hive directly or destroy it with commercial chemicals sprays.
Our method will depend on the severity of the wasp problem, the proximity to your home, and whether there are trees, flowers, or a forest nearby. No matter what option we decide is best, however, you can always count on our Sacramento and Fresno wasp control experts to keep your property safe and to get the job done ASAP.
Pigeons are particularly problematic in urban and suburban areas of California due to the state’s mild climate, which allows them to nest and roost year-round. They damage property with their acidic droppings, block gutters with their nests, and spread diseases such as histoplasmosis and salmonella.
Please don’t underestimate the problems and risks associated with pigeons. Pigeons can cause structural damage to your property with their droppings, which are acidic and corrode surfaces over time. This is not only dangerous and costly-to-repair; it can also often go unnoticed for a long time. Pigeon nests can block gutters and HVAC systems, while their presence may introduce health risks from diseases and parasites.
Pigeon control typically involves a combination of humane exclusion techniques, such as bird spikes, netting, and shock tracks, to prevent pigeons from roosting or nesting on your property. We also clean and sanitize areas affected by pigeon droppings to restore hygiene and prevent future issues.
Yes, pigeons can pose serious health risks. Their droppings contain fungi and bacteria that can lead to respiratory issues and diseases like psittacosis. Pigeons can carry diseases such as histoplasmosis, salmonella, and psittacosis. Their droppings can also harbor fungal spores that pose health risks when inhaled. They also harbor pests like mites, ticks, and fleas, which can invade your home. Professional pigeon control helps mitigate these risks.
Pigeons are attracted to the warm weather and abundant food sources often found in California neighborhoods. Homes with accessible rooftops, open attics, or solar panels are especially prone to pigeon infestations.
Prevention involves sealing off access points, installing deterrents like bird spikes or netting, and keeping outdoor spaces free of food scraps. Professional pigeon control services ensure long-term prevention by addressing the root cause of the infestation.
We use humane and effective methods, including exclusion barriers, bird netting, and deterrents like spikes or shock tracks. Our goal is to remove pigeons safely while preventing them from returning.
The duration depends on the severity of the infestation and the measures required. Most issues can be addressed in a few visits, with ongoing prevention available for long-term solutions. Apart from the immediate scheduling of a visit by one of our technicians, which can often be arranged within 24 hours, you’re looking at a few days to two weeks maximum for your immediate problems to be resolved.
