Pigeon Control NYC
NYC's massive pigeon population creates health hazards and property damage on buildings, ledges, HVAC units, and signage. Pigeon droppings are corrosive, carry diseases including histoplasmosis and cryptococcosis, and create slip hazards. Professional pigeon control includes deterrent installation (spikes, netting, wire), dropping cleanup, and ongoing maintenance.

Pigeon Control — Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions our licensed exterminators receive about pigeon control in New York City, including costs, treatment timelines, preparation steps, and what results to expect.
How much does pigeon control cost in NYC?
Pigeon Control is billed at $249/hour flat — the same fully inclusive rate we charge for every pest service. The $249/hour covers all labor, EPA-registered products, treatment methods, entry-point sealing, written plan, and the free re-treatment visit if pests come back. There are no per-room fees, no chemical surcharges, no trip fees, and no contract. You pay only on completion of the work — nothing upfront, no deposit, no card on file. Billed in 15-minute increments after the first hour. It's the only fully inclusive hourly exterminator pricing model in NYC, and it almost always costs less than the inflated flat-rate quotes built around a worst-case version of your problem.
Are pigeon droppings dangerous?
Yes. Pigeon droppings carry over 60 diseases including histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, and psittacosis. Dried droppings become airborne and can be inhaled. Professional cleanup with proper PPE is recommended, especially for large accumulations.
What is the most effective pigeon deterrent?
Bird netting is the most effective exclusion method for large areas. Spikes work well for ledges and sills. Electrical track systems deter without harming birds. We recommend a combination based on your specific building and pigeon behavior patterns.
Is it legal to kill pigeons in NYC?
Pigeons (rock doves) are not protected under federal or state law in New York. However, we focus on humane deterrent methods that prevent roosting and nesting rather than lethal control. This is more effective long-term.
How do I keep pigeons off my AC unit?
We install custom bird guard cages around AC units and HVAC equipment that prevent pigeons from roosting and nesting without restricting airflow. This also prevents pigeon droppings from clogging condensers.
