Bird control in Moscow is a commercial concern concentrated on the commercial corridors and the campus buildings where the pigeons and the starlings roost on the ledges and the signs. The rock doves (pigeons) are the primary species, and the University of Idaho campus buildings add the institutional dimension. The professional bird deterrent uses the spikes, the netting, and the tensioned wire systems.
The Moscow bird species
- Rock dove (pigeon) — the primary roosting bird on the commercial ledges.
- European starling — the large flocking bird that roosts on the signs.
- House sparrow — the small bird that nests in the gaps and the voids.
- Ring-billed gull — the seasonal visitor around the fields.

How bird control works
- Inspection. The technician identifies the species, the roosting sites, and the traffic patterns.
- Deterrent selection. The spikes, the netting, the wire system, or the gel deterrent is matched to the building.
- Installation. The deterrents are installed on the ledges, the signs, the rooflines, and the gaps.
- Clean-up. The accumulated droppings are removed and the surfaces are sanitized.
- Monitoring. The annual inspection checks the deterrents for the damage and the new roosting sites.

The campus factor
The University of Idaho campus buildings are a unique part of the Moscow bird picture. The pigeons and the starlings roost on the institutional rooflines, and the campus facilities need the deterrent systems and the waste management. The spikes and the netting keep the roosting pressure down.
The pigeons on the commercial ledges in Moscow are not the problem that starts and ends with the spikes. The food waste from the restaurants and the open dumpsters keeps the population high. The building owner who installs the spikes and manages the waste is the one who actually solves the pigeon problem.
