Pigeons

Como combatir las palomas de forma efectiva

          Who has not intended to feed them in the park?  

Perhaps more than one will tell me no because they don't like pigeons, considering them "flying rats". And on the one hand it is fine, because those people know that pigeons are vectors of many diseases, very dangerous. So the best thing, even if I don't like it, is to stay away. On the other hand, falling into an exclusive prejudice towards these animals is wrong, because everyone, including humans, transmits diseases. No one is going to get sick from feeding them or being around, the problem is their excrement.

While they are harmless, when clustered too closely they can be annoying and harassing. We can tolerate this until the moment we realize that they have crossed our lines and invaded our homes. They rest on our windows, cornices, or air conditioners, turning those places into deposits of excrement. Which is potentially dangerous because it can contain certain really harmful viruses, bacteria or fungi.

The mission of this editorial is not only to tell you how is the treatment we give to pigeons, but also to inform the reader about the dangers that these birds carry without knowing it.

Columbidae

OOTECA

name of the compartment where the nymph stage cockroaches are housed

The wild dove,Also known as Asian rock pigeon, Asian domestic pigeon or domestic pigeon, it is a species of columbiform bird in the Columbidae family, native to southern Eurasia and North Africa.  

 

After its domestication, its distribution was extended to most of all the continents, being introduced in more habitats around the world, especially cities. They use human constructions in the same way that natural populations use rock walls. 

The reputation of pigeons as being unhealthy animals to humans has been greatly exaggerated.Contact with pigeon droppings carries a lower risk of contracting histoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, and psittacosis, and prolonged exposure to their faeces and feathers can cause the pneumonitis known as bird keeper's lung.

Histoplasmosis is a systemic mycosis, characterized by necrogranulomatous lesions, which affects  carnivores , equines and  humans  by infection with one of the three subspecies of the fungus Histoplasma Capsulatum. It is not a contagious disease, but arises after the inhalation of microorganisms from the environment.

In person  immunocompetent  it is usually asymptomatic. In the  immunodeficient , especially, it can present with pictures similar to those of a  pneumonia  with  fever , respiratory distress, and in about 20% of

patients will produce a  septic shock ,  kidney failure  Y  coagulopathy , leading to  death .

Cryptococcosis is an opportunistic disease caused by fungi of the genus Cryptococcus. Generally, in the immunocompetent population the picture is not generated, and it is only in immunocompromised patients, such as HIV-positive patients or transplant patients, that the picture appears. Although it is true that each individual seems to have an individual predisposition to suffer it.

The fungus is in soil contaminated with bird feces. Transmission is by inhalation. When you breathe, the fungus enters through the respiratory tract and reaches the lungs, where it can cause infection or spread, as long as the immune system is not in adequate condition. It can also pass through the lymphatic pathway to major organs, such as the central nervous system, and cause death.

 

          Now, going back to what was mentioned at the beginning, they can be fought . There is a way and that is to cut their chain of reproduction by attacking adult individuals. I'll explain how to achieve it in a moment. At the same time, the objective is to cut the metamorphosis process, which implies preventing them from reaching the adult stage of maturity and acquiring the ability to reproduce.

Thermal fogging. Only suitable for closed spaces, industrial areas, and large public spaces.

The truth is that safety regulations - imposed by me - prevent the application of poisons potentially harmful to cockroaches in devastating proportions that allow the destabilization of the colony in a matter of hours.

You can't, it's very dangerous.

Not only for the members of the place, but also for the applicators, and even neighbors. Not to mention the contamination to the environment, which is a very important aspect to take into account. That is why  i have  settled down

Procedures that can be applied in domestic environments, taking into account everything that a home, a shop, or an office means, and at the same time that they achieve the objectives set out in the previous paragraph.

The cockroach has a ghoulish eating habit, which means a diet based on lifeless organisms. Eating another member of the colony does not seem to generate remorse, so this is a peculiar characteristic that can be used against them: a cockroach dies from the action of the poison, and another eats its poisoned corpse, thus generating a new death.

This is only possible with the combination of two products, one that kills the cockroach on contact, and the other for ingestion that has a delayed action. The second poison continues to maintain its properties after the death of the cockroach, which means that it is effective when it is food for another individual. The most interesting thing is that these properties are preserved even after several intakes, thus generating a domino effect within the colony.



Aspects of the service

Price calculation

Calculo de precio

 

Each price is unique for each situation, being calculated using a simulator that determines the amount of product to be used according to the spaces to be treated. To do this, in this case the following data is needed:

  • Size of infested furniture (height x width x depth) (if more than one, specify each)

  • Amount of sewers

  • Number of bathrooms

  • Number of appliances

You will need to provide this information when leaving your voicemail message (option 2 |  0810-220-4500 ); or by communicating via email with budgets@constant-fumigations.com.ar .

 

Application frequency

Frecuncia de aplicacion

 

You should be aware that in most cases, where there are dozens of cockroaches clustered in each sector, spraying must be done every 15 days in order to directly hit their reproductive capacity.

 

In order to estimate the approximate size of the colony, thus determining the frequency of application and the possible duration of treatment, try to describe as exactly as possible what the situation is at home, answering the following questions as a guide:

​​

  • Do you see them every time you open a cabinet door?

  • Do you see them inside the refrigerator or some other appliance?

  • How long has it been since you started feeling overwhelmed?

  • Do you have wooden structures in your home? As they are?

  • Is your home's electrical system old?

Additionally, for commercial establishments the following questions are included.

  • Do you produce ready-to-eat food? Which?

  • Is the raw material being compromised? What extent?

  • Are the production areas affected? How?

Maintenance service
Servicio de mantenimiento

 

In order to avoid new infestations, it is necessary to adopt practices that make it difficult for cockroaches to install. Among all the measures that can be included, the maintenance service is the most effective because individuals are immediately reached when leaving grates and sewers, or when passing through the home after having entered through multiple routes, such as For example, in purchased products.

 

As a special offer, a 20% discount will be applied on the value of the maintenance service, valid only at the end of the treatment.

Keep in mind that the value of the maintenance service is different from the price calculated for the performance of this specific treatment. To consult their values and characteristics, visit the following page: prices and promotions .  

Final provisions
Disposiciones finales

 

I understand the need to get rid of this plague, translated into greater hygiene, tranquility and health. That is why I strive to provide the best service, explaining in detail how it works and creating mechanisms so that treatments can start and end successfully.

We are once again going through a difficult stage, so I have decided to accompany the needs of each home and company, allowing them to access a quality service at an acceptable cost.

I am at your disposal.  

Without further ado, respectfully
