Candidiasis – A yeast or fungal infection that can be spread by pigeons. This disease affects the skin, mouth, respiratory system, intestines, and the urogenital tract.

Cryptococcosis – A pulmonary disease caused by a fungus found in bird droppings, specifically that of pigeons, starlings, and poultry. It also can grow in soil. It can be dangerous if made airborne, particularly for the immune-compromised people.

Psittacosis – An infection caused by a type of bacteria typically found in bird droppings. It is also referred to as parrot fever, as it is most frequently found in and contracted from parrots. However, it can also be found in droppings from pigeons, gulls, sparrows, ducks, and poultry.

Salmonellosis – A disease that has been found in starlings, pigeons, and sparrows. Also known as food poisoning, this disease is caused when droppings from an infected bird become airborne and contaminate cooking surfaces or food.

Yes, pest birds like woodpeckers, seagulls, pigeons, or sparrows can be problematic animals that can cause some serious property damage and health risks. 

Controlling these types of birds can be difficult. Some of these birds are also protected by the state so killing or eliminating them by yourself is illegal.
