Pigeon pox is primarily controlled through vaccination.
Here's what you need to know about the pigeon pox vaccine, according to the reference:
- The vaccine comes in a kit with a small bottle containing a dry orange pellet and another bottle (or capped syringe) with a clear liquid.
- Both components should be stored in the freezer (not the refrigerator) until the time of use. This ensures the vaccine remains effective.
Therefore, the most direct and effective method for controlling pigeon pox is through proactive vaccination of your birds.
