Managing urban bird infestation for a healthier environment
A growing problem in the city
There is a growing pigeon problem in the city. These birds, although an integral part of the urban landscape, can turn from being harmless visitors into a source of serious health and hygiene problems. These birds, often attracted to urban structures, can cause not inconsiderable damage, both aesthetically and health-wise, and increasingly represent the pigeon problem.
The hygienic side: an underestimated risk
The main problem associated with pigeons is their faeces. These not only dirty and spoil the appearance of buildings, monuments and balconies, but are also a potential vehicle for disease. Pigeon faeces can transmit diseases such as salmonellosis, and other fungal and bacterial infections. In addition, the accumulation of droppings can lead to structural problems in buildings, such as corrosion.
Environmental and aesthetic impact
In addition to the hygienic implications, pigeon infestation can have a negative impact on the urban environment. The massive presence of these birds alters the ecological balance and can damage the aesthetics of public areas and historical monuments, causing significant visual degradation.
Pigeon problem in the city: effective and respectful solutions
Tackling the problem of pigeons does not mean eliminating them, which would be a punishable offence, but managing their presence in a safe and respectful manner. The adoption of pigeon deterrents, such as physical barriers or ultrasound systems, can significantly reduce the attraction of these birds to urban structures, thus limiting health and environmental risks.
A conscious approach
It is essential to tackle the pigeon problem with a conscious and respectful approach, both towards the animals and the urban environment. The choice of non-harmful but effective solutions is the key to maintaining a healthy and safe balance in our cities. Specifically, Wonderpest proposes the definitive solution to the problem with two types of devices, Tikol T and Balance B, which are effective, respectful of the environment and animals, simple to install and very low maintenance.
