Residential Roost Removal and Proofing for Your Home

If you need pigeon control in Peoria, the sooner you call the better. Pigeons settle into rooftops, patio covers and the gaps beneath solar panels and tile, and their droppings can stain and eat away at paint, roofing, stucco and concrete. With warm weather and plenty of food around homes, flocks stay active all year, and a bird that picks your roof as a roost rarely moves on by itself.
City Wide Pest Control is family owned and has served Maricopa County for over 40 years. Our team offers bird control in Peoria built on deterrents and physical exclusion, so pigeons are removed from your property and have nothing to come back to. We proof panels, tile and every favored perch, and residential customers never have to sign a contract.

Signs Pigeons Have Moved In

Here are the common clues that pigeons are using your home.

Pigeons perching again and again on the roof, patio cover or ledges

Nests tucked beneath solar panels, roof tiles or covered alcoves

Droppings piling up on walkways, driveways, patios and outdoor chairs

Droppings around rooftop AC units, swamp coolers and vents

Early morning cooing and shuffling coming from the roofline

Twigs, feathers and other nest debris collecting in gutters or on the ground

If any of this sounds familiar, call (602) 944-0099 and our team will assess your property.

  • Why It Matters

What Pigeons Do to a Property

Maricopa County notes that pigeon droppings are acidic and can damage property and vehicles. Left alone, they can wear on roofing, paint, stucco and concrete, and dried droppings can carry fungal and bacterial microbes that are best kept out of the air around your family.
Birds that nest on a structure can bring mites, lice and ticks, which sometimes wander indoors. Nests under solar panels are a special worry, since debris can cut panel output and become a fire hazard. The county recommends removing roosting spots with trimming, spikes or netting, and it strongly discourages poisons or shooting, which is why we rely on deterrents and exclusion.

Pigeons and Peoria Homes Near Lake Pleasant

Peoria had an estimated population of 196,906 in the ACS 2020 to 2024 5-year estimates, and about 74.3 percent of its housing units (58,736 of 79,085) are single-family detached homes. That is a lot of individual roofs and patio covers where pigeons can find a perch. Near Lake Pleasant Regional Park, which runs a Bald Eagle Program and pollinator and butterfly monitoring, we stick to deterrents and physical exclusion rather than anything harsh.
Maricopa County has no code making it illegal to feed wild pigeons, but it discourages the practice and holds property owners responsible for preventing public health nuisance conditions. So the real fix happens on your property: remove the food, block the perches and clear the nests. For bird removal in Peoria, we start by inspecting the roofline and every spot where birds gather. Peoria covers 179.2 square miles, and we serve 25+ cities across Maricopa County.

  • Our Method

How We Remove Pigeons

Step 1
Assessment
First we inspect the property to find roosts, nests, gaps beneath solar panels and tiles, and how active the birds are.
Step 2
Deterrent Installation
Bird spikes, tensioned wire and netting go onto patio covers, ledges, rooflines and other perches so pigeons can no longer land.
Step 3
Solar Panel Exclusion
We fit mesh screening around solar arrays to close the space between the panels and the roof, taking away the sheltered nesting spot pigeons like.
Step 4
Nest and Debris Removal
Old nests, eggs and built-up droppings are cleared away, and the affected surfaces are cleaned.
Step 5
Follow-Up
Later we come back to confirm the deterrents are holding, the birds have moved on and no new nests are starting.

The Pigeons You Will See Around Peoria

  • Moderate Risk
The feral pigeon is gray with a shimmering green and purple neck, about 11 to 14 inches long and stocky. Descended from cliff dwellers, it sees ledges, rooftops and overhangs as home. It adapts easily and breeds all year in Arizona’s warm weather, producing several broods annually.
Feral flocks around the Valley have grown alongside development. Homes with solar panels, tile roofs, pet food, birdseed, open trash, pools or irrigation give them everything they need. Pigeons are creatures of habit as well: once a roost is set, they keep returning to it unless it is physically blocked.

Family owned since 1986. No contracts required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it illegal to feed pigeons in Peoria?
Maricopa County has no code making it illegal to feed wild pigeons, but the county discourages it and holds property owners responsible for preventing public health nuisance conditions. Feeding birds, or leaving pet food and birdseed out, tends to draw flocks to a roof, so removing food is one of the first steps we suggest.
Maricopa County notes that pigeon droppings are acidic and can damage property and vehicles. It recommends removing roosting spots with trimming, spikes or netting, and it strongly discourages poisons or shooting. Our approach follows that same direction, using deterrents and exclusion on roofs, ledges and solar panels.
Yes. Single-family detached homes make up about 74.3 percent of Peoria’s housing units, and residential work on roofs, patio covers, ledges and solar panels is a big part of what we do. Homeowners do not sign contracts, and same-day service is available. Call (602) 944-0099, Monday to Saturday, 8 to 5.
Once a pigeon finds a sheltered perch with food and water nearby, it remembers the spot and returns, often with a mate. Knocking down nests only helps for a short time. Physical exclusion, such as spikes, wire, netting and panel mesh, removes the landing spots so the birds look elsewhere.
Feral pigeons can breed all year in Arizona, so eggs can show up in any month. Eggs usually hatch after about 18 days, and a pair may produce several broods in a year. That is why we clear old nests and eggs and then block the spot, so the cycle does not simply restart.
Yes. Pigeons settle into sheltered ledges and rooftops at dusk, and they often return to the same nest site year after year. Their nests are loose piles of twigs and debris, which is why material and droppings collect in gutters and on the ground. Removing a nest alone will not stop them, but blocking the site will.
