Pigeon control problems in Canada have a new solution

Based on a growing drumbeat of interest from pigeon impacted facilities, Innolytics, the makers of Ovocontrol have received a registration for OvoControl in Canada. Applicators in Canada are now able to order and use the contraceptive for pigeons, casually known as, "birth control for birds".  

Although there is not much census data around the volume of pigeons plaguing cities in Canada, we know that despite their best effort at pigeon control, commercial facilities managers are constantly fighting to remove pigeon presence and the mess they leave behind. This can be a particularly frustrating task for facilities like Hotels, Condo's and other high rise buildings that need to keep clean facilities for their tenants. “We continue to receive a steady stream of inquiries from our neighbors to the North,” indicated Erick Wolf, CEO of Innolytics, manufacturer of OvoControl P. “Consistent with the US market, impacted facilities want access to the “birth control” program for pigeons. We can now supply the market in Canada with a product registered by the Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA), Health Canada (Pest Control Product Reg. No. 32670).”    

Gardex Chemicals, Ltd. in Etobicoke, Ontario has been named the master distributor and will represent OvoControl P in Canada.  

Gardex Chemicals provides top quality service and products for the Professional Pest Management Industry. Gardex’s President, Karen Furgiuele commented, “We look forward to establishing the distribution network for OvoControl P in Canada. OvoControl P represents an innovative new product for the market where pigeon control strategies have typically been limited to physical exclusion or tactics aimed at increasing mortality that only provide short-term relief.  OvoControl P provides the opportunity to abate the population of birds, safely and effectively over time.”
