Abstrakt     Epidemiological and serological surveys of pigeons were conducted in the cities of Venice and Treviso, north-eastern Italy. Although the two cities are only 30 Kms apart, they are very diverse in terms of human habitats and ecological influences. The survey results provide and confirm comparative differences of the presence of human pathogens (zoonosis) in the two cities, such as ornitosis (Clamydia). Because of this, different control criteria for the control of pigeon populations had to be implemented to safeguard public health. The nature of investigations, included serological and epidemiological analyses, the methods implemented for control of pigeon populations, and the overall precautionary measures undertaken from public health safety point of view are described.
