'Trapping pigeons versus bird of prey deterrent'.
Trapping & removing may seem like a solution to your problem and many companies enlist a Pest Control firm to regularly monitor traps, however, the situation becomes a continuous cycle as new pigeons fill the void left from ones already trapped and removed.
Solution:
Change trap & remove practise to real time flight operations. Enlist the Pest Control Companies to fly birds of prey over the problem areas, this will reduce the number of pigeons and eventually clear the area. You still need to fly the birds to control the area however the flights can be less frequent over time.

Hi dave
ReplyDeletedoes this practice work well in built up areas or is it better for a smaller rural pigeon problem?
In practice birds of prey work better in larger spaces where pigeons come together on roof tops and open areas, in smaller inner city areas the pigeons escape the attention of birds of prey hiding under roofs and settling on window ledges, rafters and beams. Installing pigeon spikes to these areas will move the birds out onto the roofs / open areas where they are exposed to bird of prey activity.
ReplyDeleteA two fold process to reduce pigeon numbers humanly with the added bonus of seeing wonderful birds of prey flying in and around your area.
I hope this helps.
