' Can I kill pigeons or poison them?'Killing birds does not solve the problem; it would not take long before another pair of birds moves in. Treating the cause of the problem, for example, installing bird spikes to ledges, guttering, window sills, rafters, beams etc will stop pigeons using your property making them unable to roost.
Poisons should never be used as non target species of birds and animals could be killed. Simply install the bird spikes and move the birds away from your property.

There is a discussion about spikes on our community forum, fy. Perhaps someone can contact Chelsea Piers and inform them regarding humane pigeon deterrants.

Trapping & removing pigeons could be replaced by birds of prey contracted to fly around the Chelsea Piers property to help reduce pigeon numbers. Any ledges, rafters, beams etc located in the fire escape area should be treated using pigeon spikes (as long as it does not block the fire escape route).
