3 Types of common Pest Birds found in Australia
Feral Pigeon – The Rock Dove is native to Europe, Africa, and Asia, where it prefers open agricultural areas. Feral populations are closely associated with human settlement in many countries throughout the world. Although it is mainly a seed-eater, the Rock Dove will sample most scraps. The Rock Dove breeds at any time of the year, but peak times are spring and summer
Starling – Were introduced into Australia and New Zealand in the mid-1880’s, in the vain hope that they might destroy insect pests. Starlings can cause significant damage to horticultural industries, particularly cherries, grapes, blueberries, olives, stone fruits, apples, pears and a range of vegetable crops. They can also carry many parasites and diseases which raise concern in food factories and industrial areas and are a potential risk to livestock industries.
English Sparrows – They were introduced to Australia in the 1860s and are now abundant in cities, towns, rural areas and around farm buildings, particularly in the south-east of Australia. The nest is a large, untidy ball of grass, wool, and feathers, lined with feathers and finer plant material. It is usually located in suitable areas in buildings, such as roof voids and crevices in walls, but may be placed under bridges, in thick bushes or in tree hollows.
