HAVING PROBLEMS WITH UNWATED BIRDS, LIKE PIGEONS!
There is no doubt that pigeons can be a pest and create quire a mess.
These charming birds will land on your roof or around your house, and can
poop on your house or vehicle leaving their droppings everywhere. However,
the problem is how will you stop them from damaging your property? As you
read on you will discover how to drive these pigeons away from your
property without killing them.
Their droppings might damage your vegetation, benches, vehicles, roof
and they may bring bad odor.
Their droppings are mixed with the feathers and they nest might block the
vents on a structure. More so, big amount of droppings can bring fungal
diseases to people. If you do not want to deal with these problems like
mites and parasites carried by pigeons, it is about time to come up with a
permanent solution to them from coming back.
One of the simplest way to not pigeons ruin your patio or balcony is to
put a wind chime or foil pan. Balloons will do or some glowing rubber
snakes. Poke a hole in the aluminum foil pan and then fasten that on your
balcony using a string. You can also use the Mylar balloon table. Many
garden shops have the owls and snake to serve this purpose. This site also
offers more information on the most effective bird removal techniques to
help you removal any bird.
You can also use the anti-roosting spikes. These can be bought in most
of the garden centers or hardware shops. They can be attached anywhere and
they can help in discouraging the pigeons from making a nesting place in
an environment that is not meant for them. If you are in the city, you
must have seen these spikes on the buildings. They are not as costly and
installation may also take some time, but they can also be the best way to
ward off pigeons. There is no definite way to ward off pigeons, but
harming or killing them is highly discouraged.
You can try the suggestions and make sure that you clean the pigeon
droppings, since they contain bacteria and fungi that may
affect your
health. Make sure you wear a mask and gloves while doing this. Use an
antibacterial cleanser to clean the entire area.
