Why are birds considered pests?

While many birds are a cherished part of our natural environment, some species have increasingly become a nuisance in urban areas, leading to a growing number of insurance claims directly linked to their activity.

Birds such as pigeons and gulls are causing more frequent issues due to the damage they inflict on buildings, stairways, and walkways. Their droppings, which are highly acidic, can erode building materials over time, resulting in costly repairs and extensive cleaning requirements.

In addition to structural damage, these birds are often associated with parasites that may spread from nests and pose a risk to people. Large numbers of nesting and roosting birds can make buildings appear neglected.

Beyond the aesthetic and structural concerns, pest birds also present serious health and safety risks. They are known carriers of diseases such as salmonellosis and ornithosis, which can be harmful, and in some cases, fatal to humans.

What problems can Birds cause?

Birds and their fouling can transmit potential fatal diseases such as psittacosis, cryptococcosis, aspergillosis, toxoplasmosis and salmonellosis.

Bird infestation can be a source of arthropod infestation such as pigeon fleas, pigeon louse flies, pigeon ticks, red poultry mites, clothes moths, carpet beetles, house moths, mealworm beetles and many more.

Bird fouling can be a slip hazard, it can damage buildings and it looks unsightly.

Gulls can attack nearby people when they have young in their nest.

Gull pecking can damage buildings.

Gulls can peck open rubbish bags creating a mess and can potentially lead to rodent issues.
