The most effective way to keep pigeons off your building is professional installation of deterrent and exclusion systems. Bird spikes installed on ledges, rooftop edges, and signage prevent pigeons from roosting on flat surfaces. Bird netting creates a physical barrier that excludes pigeons from larger areas like courtyards and recessed features. Sealing openings in eaves, soffits, and around HVAC equipment prevents nesting inside the structure. Reducing food availability by securing trash and dumpster areas discourages pigeons from the property. Existing droppings should be professionally removed because they harbor pathogens that pose respiratory health risks. A site assessment by a qualified pest control professional determines the best combination of deterrents for your specific building.
Earwigs enter homes because they are seeking moisture, shelter, or relief from extreme outdoor conditions. They live outdoors under mulch, stones, leaf litter, and in garden beds, and they move indoors when weather becomes too hot, dry, or wet. They typically enter through gaps under doors, foundation cracks, and spaces around pipes and utility lines. Inside, they are found in damp areas like bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, and basements. To prevent earwigs, seal all gaps and cracks around entry points, reduce mulch depth near the foundation, fix drainage issues, and use dehumidifiers in damp interior spaces. Professional perimeter treatments applied around the foundation and entry points provide effective control by killing earwigs before they get inside.
