What the OvoControl Pigeon Control Program Is

Pigeons are a frequent challenge across Fiji, from urban centers to coastal resorts. Their droppings can damage buildings, create sanitation concerns, and pose potential health risks. The OvoControl program provides a scientifically backed, humane solution to manage pigeon populations safely and effectively over time.

OvoControl works as a contraceptive, gently interrupting the pigeons’ reproductive cycle. This non-lethal method supports sustainable population control and aligns with Fiji’s commitment to environmental protection and animal welfare.

By addressing the source of overpopulation, OvoControl delivers a responsible, long-term pigeon management solution suitable for residential areas, commercial properties, and public spaces throughout Fiji.

What are Benefits of OvoControl P

Long-Term

Effective

Humane

In Fiji, many property owners still rely on traditional methods like nets or blocking access to ledges and rooftops to keep pigeons away. While these measures may provide temporary relief, they often struggle to control larger or long-established pigeon populations effectively.

OvoControl offers a more reliable and humane long-term solution. When used alongside our Integrated Pigeon Management (IPM) strategy—which includes targeted physical barriers—it delivers a complete and responsible approach to managing pigeon populations across residential, commercial, and industrial areas throughout Fiji.

FAQs on Pigeon Control in Fiji

Pigeons and other pest birds are common in urban and coastal areas of Fiji, where they can create sanitation issues, droppings can damage property surfaces, and food waste in public spaces attracts and sustains large flocks. Removing food sources and managing nesting sites helps reduce these problems.
Fiji’s Birds and Game Protection Act 1923 regulates the protection and control of bird species, and lists certain game birds with specific rules on when they may be taken or hunted under licences. This means pigeon control must be mindful of existing wildlife legislation and, if required, appropriate permissions should be sought.
Yes — historically, Fiji has had a pigeon “game” season where licences are issued to hunt pigeons under the Birds and Game Protection Act, but participation requires proper licensing and compliance with quotas and restrictions. Licences and game seasons are managed by wildlife authorities. More information is available on the Fiji Times.
While Fiji does not have widely published specific fines for feeding pigeons in cities, bird-management guidelines emphasise prohibiting wildlife feeding and securing food waste to reduce bird attraction and associated hazards. Removing open food waste and keeping bins secure helps prevent pigeon buildup. See guidance from the Civil Aviation Authority of Fiji.
Humane pigeon and bird control involves reducing accessible food, blocking nesting and roosting spots with physical barriers, and maintaining cleanliness around properties to make areas less attractive to pigeons. Removing shelter and food sources is often the most effective first step.
