How to kill pigeons????

memphis2008

As title says really... i have a really annoying neighbour who lives underneath us who keeps feeding pigeons, it's getting really annoying with all the bird shite on the car and the fecking cooooing in the mornings...

my neighbour looks like pauline fowler and is just as grumpy, i'm sure she knows it annoys us, as she has started to feed them from her bedroom window now, so the sit on our window ledge ready to swoop down..

i've since put some spikes on the window ledge, but they sit between them or on the roof above as we are the top flat the coooing is still driving me mad....

i do have a .22 but haven't looked up the laws yet, used to use it in the countryside when living in cornwall. only internet searching i can come up with is alka-selzer......does this work? anyone got any tried and tested methods???

help please :evil:

Matt

Call the council. Pigeons are classed as vermine iirc, and if they are damaging your property, and someone else is aggrevating the situation by feeding them, that makes it even worse.

Or.......just shoot the bitch downstairs with the .22 😃

vocky

as Matt said, call the council

or my cat does like a pigeon or two :lol:

throw some lead airgun bullets on the floor, the pigeons eat them but can digest them, which kills them apparently

get a pellet or bb gun from wolf armouries and shoot em all, get something with rapid fire to get more kills. my boss has the rat catcher that has sights and everything, he went and shot the rats at the back of his garden and got 1 the rat just shrugged it off and carried on to his bins.lol or if you want air horns if you want to do it nicely

But is it classed as "in public" if you are hanging out of your window taking pop shots at the little bastards??

Man you have my 100% sympathy, i know what its like to live next door to the neighbours from hell!! The family next door to me consist of a mouthy little kid, his mother and 2 senile grandparents, with 3 cats that dig and shit in my garden, a Laha-apso toy dog that barks at anything 24 hours a day, AND now i come home to find the old guy has started to dig my borders over and take my washing line down????

I tell you this if i could get hold of a 4 bore you would hear about it on the 10 0 clock news! 1st on my list is the dog, a little rat poison will quieten it down...

:evil: shite m8 you got it worse than me...

my cousin has a neighbour dog like that and i want to kill it after visiting for 5 mins, we did call rspca as they would leave it in garden all day barking, and now they don't, so rspca must have said something.

i'd go with the poisen though, probably the dog and child 😃

well i've fed some rifle pellets this morning, so see what happens

Matt

How did the rifle pellets go down with the pigeons?

memphis2008

i haven't spotted any dead pidgeons yet, think we might be moving now...may shoot some as we're leaving lol

DBcoup

come up here and shoot this dog noth.

feed the birds to but put bicardonate soda into a small ball of bread once the bird eats it whatch as it explodes birds have tiny bellys so when the soda hits the fluid bang there goes the bird very easy way of getting rid of 20 at a time or see the council 😃

joey

When I was a nipper we lived on the south coast and played the exact trick on seagulls.
