It’s Not Just a Pest—It’s a Health Hazard

When most people think about pest control, they picture an annoying rat, a cockroach scurrying across the floor, or pigeons making a mess overhead. While these pests are indeed unpleasant, the real concern runs much deeper—health, safety, and long-term property damage.

At IPM Maintenance, we see the full picture every day. Pest infestations, whether birds, rodents, insects, or otherwise, pose very real risks to the people who live or work in the affected areas.

The Hidden Dangers of Pest Birds

Pest birds such as pigeons often seem harmless, but the buildup of droppings they leave behind is anything but. Dried bird guano can carry several dangerous zoonotic diseases, including Salmonella, Histoplasmosis, Cryptococcosis & Psittacosis

These pathogens can become airborne or be transmitted through contact, creating health hazards in public spaces, residential properties, and commercial facilities alike.

Rodents, Cockroaches, and Ants – More Than Just a Scare

Beyond birds, other pests like rats, cockroaches, and ants can cause serious hygiene issues, contaminate food sources, damage wiring or structures, and spread disease. Left untreated, these infestations grow rapidly and become much harder to manage.

Why DIY Isn’t the Answer

It can be tempting to grab a spray or set a trap, but DIY pest control is rarely a long-term solution. In some cases, it can even put you or others at greater risk. Without the right training and tools, pests can relocate, reproduce, or adapt, turning a small issue into a costly one.
