Pigeon mess in my garden
-
William on Nov 03, 2016Propping a decoy owl or hawk on a post in the garden, where it will be visible to the pigeons, or scatter some rubber snakes in the garden. Most garden centers and big-box stores carry the owls and snakes for this purpose. ***** Use reflective features. While these may not work long-term, it is worth trying to install reflective tape, noise devices or foil balloons and try to scare away the pigeons.In tandem with one of the other measures, these short-term scaring devices might enable you to get in the heavy-duty pigeon deterrents.Helpful Reply

Bon9451204 on Nov 09, 2016Go to a dollar store and buy a toy snake or more if needed. As the pigeons and birds will think it is real and will stay away. I used this on a porch railing to keep birds away and it worked.Helpful Reply
