Pigeon Trapping & Removal, Delaware
Pigeons are trapped on the roof or in the building where they are roosting, removed, and kept out by closing off the ledges and openings they are using. Call Dale Sipple at 302-236-1273.
Pigeon work is commercial work more often than not: barns, warehouses, loading bays, the space behind a sign. A flock that has settled on a building is not going anywhere on its own, and the droppings are corrosive, slippery underfoot and a health issue where food or feed is handled.
Trapping thins the flock. Exclusion is what keeps it gone — closing the roost ledges and the gaps up under the eaves. One without the other buys you a few weeks.
Signs of a pigeon problem
- Droppings streaking a wall, sign or loading bay floor
- Birds lined along the same ledge or ridge every day
- Nesting material in gutters, behind signage or under eaves
- Cooing and wing noise inside a barn or warehouse roof
- Blocked gutters and downpipes

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you get rid of pigeons on a building?
Trap the birds that are roosting there, then exclude them from the ledges and openings they use. Trapping alone will not hold if the roost is left open. Call 302-236-1273 for pigeon control in Delaware.
Do you handle commercial pigeon work?
Yes. Barns, warehouses, loading bays, signage and roof lines across Sussex and Kent County.
Are pigeon droppings a health risk?
Yes. They carry disease, corrode building materials and make surfaces dangerously slippery. Clean-up should be handled properly rather than hosed around.
Will the pigeons come back?
Not if the roost is closed off. Pigeons return to the exact ledge they were raised on, so exclusion is the part of the job that lasts.
