The first of its kind, OvoControl effectively controls the reproduction of treated birds. Communities and businesses around the United States are adopting this safe, effective and humane technology to manage pigeons in larger areas without having to resort to avian toxicants and their associated risks.
Registered by EPA and approved by all 50 states, the new tool is ideal for larger sites where some pigeons can be tolerated but where a population reduction is desired: schools, campuses, hospitals, dense urban areas are all prime candidates. With contraception, the populations of birds declines naturally through attrition and field studies show a reduction of approximately 50% annually. Recently collected data at a monitored site in San Diego reflected an 88% decline over 28 months.

The product is administered to the birds in the form of pigeon friendly pellets as a once-a-day snack. Most of today's non-lethal tools are designed to keep birds from specific areas, but the population remains unchanged and simply becomes a problem elsewhere. Unlike "quick-fixes" without lasting benefit, OvoControl is a long-term program, acting to slowly reduce the number of birds and augmenting other tools in the pest bird control arsenal. The new product is fully consistent with a "green" IPM program, providing an environmentally sustainable bird management solution.
