Pigeons…
Anyone know of good ways to get rid of pigeons?? there is a shanty-town house behind us (i think it is abandoned) and it is infested with pigeons! which sucks because our clothes line is right over the fence from it. yeah. connect the dots.
So judging by this picture shooting oversized thumbtacks at them isn’t going to work 
you could blow the house up?

Alternatively, get some peregrin falcons…
Reply to stephenmacHeh, spy pigeons. There’s a movie in that…with hot lady pigeons and references to omelettes: shaken, not stirred.
Do you know any falcon suppliers? Jodie has always wanted pets…
dave… i suppose i shouldn’t expect too much from a guy whose middle name is mango.
Reply to reuben[edit] actually having thought some more, i’m seeing your point of view on this dave. mass destruction may just be the answer i’ve been looking for [/edit]
well, according to that blog, the Brits have a few surplus peregrins left over from WWI… I’d check with them first, as their peregrins would probably be a bit better trained…
Reply to stephenmacThanks, I’ll get onto them asap…

Reply to Dave Miersi’ve noticed over the last year, lots of places have put those upside down spikes on top of their signs and businesses and eves etc… so that pigeons won’t congregate and join the dots on people.
maybe you could put some spikes above your washing wherever they’re sitting???
Reply to Dave MiersI reckon’ straight to the barbecue is the solution. That ‘ll learn ‘em.
Great photo by the way…
