Welcome to Charleston Bird Control: Prevention and Removal of Unwanted Birds
Our company specializes in resolving problems caused by birds in Charleston, South Carolina, both residential and commerical. We handle bird species such as pigeons, starlings, grackles, sparros, and even Canada Geese and woodpeckers. We generally don't kill birds - we prevent them from causing problems. Most commonly, this means that we install barriers that prevent them access to your building or property, or anti-roosting devices that prevent them from landing, nesting, or roosting on your home, store, building, or anywhere. We use netting, needle strips, shock track, and more. We do offer trapping in some cases, and removal of birds from warehouses, grocery stores, or other commerical or industrial buildings by netting or sometimes pellet shooting. We have a wide variety of tools and methods for solving every manner of bird problem. Call us at 843-639-4504 to discuss your bird problem today.Our Work

The pigeon is a bird that is renowned for breeding throughout the year, rather than relying on certain peak breeding seasons. That makes the speed at which these birds reproduce quite staggering, and when you consider that a female pigeon can start to breed at just six or seven months of age (although, usually starts slightly later than that), you can quickly understand why these creatures have been given the nickname "flying vermin". They're not far off rats with wings!
Domesticated/pet pigeons, often used as racing or homing pigeons, can live for many years if their conditions are just right — as many as fifteen years and beyond. To achieve this, the pigeon needs to live in a safe roosting or nesting space that doesn't allow for predatory access, around ten percent of their body weight in food per day, and standing water. The latter is to drink as well as bathe in.
Females usually lay a couple of eggs at a time, but sometimes will lay just one, and at other times will lay three or four. This happens around ten days after breeding. The eggs themselves take a little under three weeks to incubate, and then those squabs — baby pigeons — stay with their mother for around a month or two. In the summer, squabs will leave the nest sooner, but they'll stay for close to three months during the winter when conditions are tough. The mother will usually have laid eggs again before the first round of squabs leave.
In the wild, pigeons do not live for as long, and there are many factors that contribute to this. People are one of the biggest pigeon predators, killing them off for pest control and also hunting them for food and entertainment purposes. The passenger pigeon is one species of pigeon that deforestation and extreme hunting caused the extinction of, and it wouldn't be too unreasonable to think that we could slowly exterminate this pest species to extinction, too. The scenario has happened before.
With people, disease, and predatory attacks on the rise, pigeons are only expected to live for a fraction of their captive lifespan, in the wild. A good life expectancy is three or four years for this bird.
