Billerica wildlife control tip of the month:
About Pigeon
There are 310 species of Billerica pest control pigeons in the world and they can be found anywhere in the world except
Sahara, Arctic and Antarctica. They can come in various sizes from 22 grams up to a turkey sized
weighing from 2 to 4 kilograms. Their legs are short, their heads are small, but their body is compact.
You can immediately recognize them by their Billerica animal control characteristic bobbing of their head which occurs because they
want to keep their vision constant. When they were placed on a treadmill in one Billerica animal trapping experiment, they did not bob
their heads because the surrounding was constant. Their wings are large and they have strong wing muscles (31-44
percent of their weight goes into wing muscles), and that enables them great maneuverability in flight. Their color
varies from grey and monotonous to very colorful species.
Their diet mostly consists of fruit and seeds. They can eat seeds either on the ground or on trees, but some are
known to eat insects and worms, even snails, moths and other insects. The nests they build are flimsy, they use sticks
and other debris and place their nests on trees, ledges or ground. When they lay eggs, both parents take care of them and
one or two chicks they produce usually leave the nest after seven to 28 days after hatching. They produce something called
“crop milk” to feed their young, which is specific for them in the Billerica wildlife removal bird kingdom. Young pigeons are called squabs.
Pigeons can be found everywhere and they come in great numbers, but some of the species are endemic and have to be
preserved. There are laws and regulations that preserve them, some protected areas are established and breeding them in
captivity and letting them go afterwards. Some species of pigeons have gone extinct because of Billerica exterminator humans and changes they made
in the environment, and the most famous one is the dodo. Military often used pigeons in wars, they were delivering messages
across the enemy lines. Some of them were even rewarded for their contributions. People often breed them in captivity as a hobby,
and they can be used to deliver messages or to be used in ceremonies where they release them. Some species are even grown for food
and people claim their meat is excellent. They also have a big significance in some religions, from long forgotten ones to the major
religions of today like Christianity or Judaism.
