Physical control
How can I get rid of pigeons? Controlling pigeons permanently is hard because these birds have adapted to stress, and there are many sources of food available in urban areas. The best way to control them is to change their environment:
- Remove roosting niches and seal any crevices, large openings, and entrances in high areas to discourage pigeons.
- Screen off water sources (like rooftop air conditioners) that pigeons might drink from.
- Never leave food out where pigeons can get it.
- Keep garbage containers closed. Dispose of garbage on a regular basis.
- On flat roofs or ledges, use bristling wires, also known as porcupine wires, or sticky pastes that will discourage pigeons from landing and gathering.
Bird scaring devices
Bird scaring devices can also be bought to frighten birds away from a given area. Loud noises, flashing lights, windmills, and recordings of bird distress calls can be effective ways of controlling pigeons, but may not all be practical in urban settings. Also, pigeons can eventually get used to these types of devices and may ignore them.
If pigeons are a nuisance on a balcony, fine netting can be hung across the front of the balcony, or a combination of visual frightening devices can be used, if they can be moved around to prevent birds from getting used to them.
