Birds are beautiful creatures and over the years they have inspired and spurred creativity in many ways. From airplanes to paintings to software, people have gathered so many ideas that it is impossible to quantify.
But not every thing is roses with these critters. Pigeons for example can create a lot of problems to humans. But they are not the only birds that can trigger issues. Crows, starlings, sparrows, swallows and seagulls are also extremely common and can turn out to be a major pest and health hazard if they are not controlled and taken care of in time.

An additional instance can be a vineyard setting. I can inform you this because my grandfather used to make his own wine and in his vineyard they had some bird problems.
