<br />18 <br />Service Centers Nationwide <br /> <br /> <br />bees are swarming, they are looking for a place to nest and are attracted to these swarm nests. <br />Evidence of swarming activity will then initiate control measures. <br /> <br />As part of our regular inspections on all areas, we will identify nests that are being constructed and <br />will remove those as part of our IPM services. Stinging arthropod control will be an important area <br />for Pestmaster to provide a proactive control strategy. Safety is of the utmost importance. If there is <br />a situation in which nesting removal for stinging insects be needed outside of buildings up to the <br />height of 21-feet, Pestmaster will locate a sub-contractor to conduct the service. <br /> <br />BIRDS: <br /> <br />Pigeons are the most common type of pest bird in North America, and they cause a variety of <br />problems at all kinds of buildings, from airports to manufacturing facilities to power plants and the <br />rooftops of stores, offices, and homes. Because pigeon droppings contain uric acid, which is highly <br />corrosive, pigeons can cause a great deal of damage in a short amount of time. Feral pigeons are <br />responsible for untold millions of dollars of damage each year in urban areas. Here are a few of the <br />other most common pigeon roosting problems (and reasons why people need effective pigeon <br />deterrents): <br /> <br /> Pigeons (and pigeon waste) can hurt the image of a business or commercial enterprise as <br />they leave a bad impression. <br /> Collected debris from roosting pigeon flocks can cause water damage by blocking up <br />gutters and drains. <br /> Roosting pigeons often cause extensive damage to air conditioning units and other rooftop <br />machinery. <br /> Droppings create hazardous surfaces that lead to slip and fall liability. <br /> Bacteria, fungal agents, and ectoparasites found in pigeon droppings can pose a health risk. <br /> <br />Because pigeons are monogamous, highly territorial, and extremely social, once their presence is <br />established, the one thing you can count on is that presence is going to increase. Two and a half <br />years is the average life span of feral pigeons. As the monogamous pair begins their breeding cycle, <br />running spring through fall (or year-round if conditions are right), their young (usually 2 at a time) <br />often stay with the flock. With adequate food, water and nesting sites, pigeons can hatch their eggs <br />as often as every 6 weeks. Left unchecked, 5 monogamous pairs can produce up to 400 pigeons in <br />2 years! <br /> <br />Non-Chemical Methods of Control: <br />Sanitation: Our first task is to remove all the nests and fecal matter that are on the surfaces where <br />any control methods will be applied. This will be done by physically removing by hand all nests and <br /> <br /> <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 16D1C412-7260-4260-8A87-C870C0BEE374
