Louisville Pigeon Removal
Pigeon Control & Removal Services
These flying rats are abundant across Louisville, especially in Downtown Louisville and the Highlands, where they invade businesses, buildings and homes causing extensive damage and a large buildup of toxic feces. This feces is acidic killing plants in the areas they roost in and they are extremely heavy putting pressure on areas with a large buildup.
The best way after removing the pigeon colony to prevent them returning is to exclude them from the structure and remove the food source that attracted them in the first place.
Louisville Critter Ridder is ready and waiting to humanely remove pigeons from your home and business anytime, anywhere.

Downtown Louisville's bridges, parking garages, warehouse district and older commercial blocks support large feral pigeon populations. Beyond the mess, pigeon droppings are genuinely destructive - their acidity eats paint, metal flashing and masonry - and accumulated droppings can harbor histoplasmosis, a real concern in the Ohio Valley where the fungus is endemic. Our bird management certification covers the full range of commercial pigeon solutions: netting for garages and loading docks, ledge deterrents, and cleanup with proper respiratory protection and sanitization.
Pigeon Removal Questions, Answered
Why is pigeon poop such a big deal for buildings?
Pigeon droppings are acidic enough to corrode paint, metal flashing and stone, and dried accumulations can harbor histoplasmosis spores. A flock also returns to the same ledges daily - pigeons are famously loyal to a roost. As Bird Barrier certified installers, we don't just scare them off; we make the ledges themselves unusable with spikes, wire, shock track or netting.
Do fake owls and reflectors get rid of pigeons?
For a week or two at best - pigeons habituate to anything that doesn't physically exclude or consistently deter them. That's why our pigeon work uses physical systems: StealthNet netting for large areas, Bird-Shock track for ledges, and exclusion of the sheltered nooks where they nest. It costs more than a plastic owl, and it's also the last time you pay to solve the problem.

Louisville Critter Ridder uses flat-rate pricing: basic wild animal removal typically runs $797-$997 total, with no per-animal charges. We give free quotes over the phone 24/7/365 at (502) 791-9205, and we match or beat competitor pricing.
How does your pigeon removal process work?
We follow a three-step process: first we humanely remove the animals using traps that are tech-monitored and physically checked every three hours, then we repair the damage they caused, and finally we permanently close every entry point so they can't get back in.
Is your pigeon removal humane?
Yes. We use humane removal methods every time, and every trap is paired with cellular monitoring technology and physically checked every three hours so no animal is left waiting.
Will the animals come back after pigeon removal?
No - after removal we permanently seal every entry point and potential entry point, and that exclusion work is backed in writing by our 10 year animal-free guarantee. If an animal re-enters through an entry point we closed within 10 years, we make it right.
