Pigeon infestations pose several risks. Pigeon droppings can contain harmful bacteria, fungi, and parasites that can lead to respiratory issues and diseases. The corrosive nature of their droppings can also cause damage to structures over time. Accumulated droppings can create slippery surfaces, increasing the risk of slip and fall accidents. Additionally, pigeons can attract other pests, such as mites and ticks, leading to additional infestations and health concerns.
