Pigeon

Pigeons are stout-bodied birds with small heads and short legs, typically measuring 11-15 inches long. They exhibit a wide range of plumage colors, including gray, white, brown, and iridescent shades. Distinctive features include a fleshy cere above the beak and a characteristic bobbing head movement when walking.

Pigeon infestations are often indicated by excessive droppings on buildings, sidewalks, and ledges. You may also observe nesting materials such as twigs and feathers in sheltered areas, along with the presence of large flocks congregating on rooftops or near food sources. The strong, unpleasant odor of accumulated droppings is another telltale sign.

MBPC offers humane pigeon control solutions in the Grand Strand, including exclusion methods like netting and bird spikes to prevent roosting and nesting. We also provide droppings removal and sanitation services to eliminate health hazards and property damage. Our licensed technicians ensure compliance with SC Department of Pesticide Regulation guidelines and ethical wildlife management practices.

Eliminate food sources by properly disposing of garbage and pet food. Install bird netting or spikes on ledges and other roosting areas to deter pigeons from landing. Regularly clean up droppings to prevent accumulation and potential health hazards around your Myrtle Beach property. Consider professional bird control services for persistent infestations.

Pigeons thrive in urban and suburban environments throughout Myrtle Beach, taking advantage of readily available food sources and sheltered nesting sites. They commonly inhabit rooftops, ledges, bridges, and other structures, often congregating near areas with human activity. The warm, humid climate of coastal South Carolina provides ideal conditions for year-round pigeon activity.
