Birds can carry and spread diseases to people and livestock through their droppings. Also, they are known to carry or transmit ornithosis, encephalitis, Newcastle disease, cryptococcosis, toxoplasmosis, salmonella food poisoning, and several other diseases. Additionally, under the right conditions bird manure may harbor airborne spores of the causal agent of histoplasmosis, a systemic fungus disease that can infect humans.

The ectoparasites of some birds include various species of fleas, lice, mites, ticks, and other biting insects, some of which readily bite people. Some insects that inhabit the nests of birds are also fabric pests and/or pantry pests. The northern fowl mite found on pigeons is an important poultry pest.

Because birds live in such close association with humans, they are a factor in passing on numerous disease, parasites and  insect pests.  Some of the diseases include chlamydiosis, coccidiosis, erysipeloid, Newcastle’s, parathypoid, pullorum, salmonellosis, transmissible gastroenteritis, tuberculosis, various encephalitis viruses, vibriosis,  and yersinosis. Parasites  include internal parasites (acariasis, schistosomiasis, taeniasis, toxoplasmosis, and trichomoniasis). Also household insect pests include bed bugs, carpet beetles, clothes moths, fleas, lice, mites, and ticks. (Source: Prevention and Control of Wildlife Damage — 1994)

  • Always caulk or seal openings where small pest nuisance birds enter. Sparrows can enter openings 3/4 inch, and starlings enter one-inch openings.
  • Also, cover vent, eave, and loft openings with plywood, 1/4-inch wire mesh, or netting.
  • In addition, door strips (clear, plastic strips hung from door frames) prevent bird from entering stores, warehouses and similar structures but won’t impede people from entering.
