If you are dealing with pigeons on your Westcliffe property, Colorado Wildlife Specialists is here to help. Our Westcliffe pigeon removal services are built for the high-altitude conditions of the Wet Mountain Valley, targeting the nesting habits common to rural homes, historic storefronts, and agricultural properties throughout Custer County. Pigeons are a growing nuisance in Westcliffe, and without professional intervention they can cause lasting damage to your roof, solar panels, and outdoor spaces.

Why Pigeons Are a Problem in Westcliffe

Westcliffe sits at over 7,800 feet in elevation, nestled in the Wet Mountain Valley between the Sangre de Cristo Mountains to the west and the Wet Mountains to the east. While the scenery is breathtaking, the area provides ideal roosting conditions for pigeons year-round. Ledges on older homes, barns, and downtown buildings offer perfect nesting spots, and the area’s mild summers keep pigeon populations active for most of the year.

Once pigeons establish a roosting site, they return season after season. A small flock can quickly grow into a large infestation. Common problems caused by Westcliffe pigeons include:

• Structural Damage: Pigeon droppings are highly acidic and erode roofing materials, gutters, siding, and wooden structures over time.
• Health Hazards: Pigeon waste can carry histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, and other respiratory diseases that pose real risks to families and pets.
• Noise and Mess: Roosting pigeons create constant noise, leave droppings on vehicles and walkways, and can attract other pest species.
• Solar Panel Damage: Pigeons frequently nest beneath solar panels, causing wiring damage and reducing energy output significantly.

Colorado Wildlife Specialists takes a professional, humane approach to Westcliffe pigeon removal. We do not use harmful chemicals or methods that put other wildlife at risk. Our team inspects your property thoroughly, identifies active roosting and nesting sites, and develops a removal and exclusion plan tailored to your building and the local bird behavior in Custer County.

Our pigeon removal process includes:

• Property Inspection: We assess all roosting areas, entry points, and nesting locations on your Westcliffe home or business.
• Humane Removal: Pigeons and nests are removed safely and in compliance with wildlife regulations.
• Sanitation and Cleanup: We remove droppings and nesting debris, then sanitize affected areas to eliminate health hazards and odors.
• Exclusion Installation: We apply bird deterrents including spikes, netting, and wire barriers to prevent pigeons from returning.

Westcliffe Solar Panel Protection from Pigeons

Solar panels are a smart investment for Westcliffe property owners looking to take advantage of the area’s abundant sunshine. Unfortunately, the gap between solar panels and the roof is one of the most attractive nesting spots for pigeons. Once they settle in, pigeons chew wiring, pack the space with nesting material, and leave behind droppings that degrade panel performance and void manufacturer warranties.

Our solar panel bird guard installation in Westcliffe protects your investment and keeps pigeons out for the long term. Services include:

• Solar Panel Cleaning: We remove all droppings, feathers, and nesting debris from under and around your panels before installation.
• Critter Guard Installation: Heavy-duty wire mesh is secured around the perimeter of your solar array, blocking pigeons from accessing the space beneath.
• Humane and Safe Methods: All materials are environmentally safe and built to hold up in Westcliffe’s high-altitude climate and weather conditions.
• 10-Year Warranty: Our solar panel protection and bird control services are backed by a comprehensive 10-year warranty.
