Dang Birds

[Bernoff]

What have you guys used to be successful at keeping pigeons and birds out of sheds? Do those Plastic owls that you hang on a rafter help? For the first time last fall, I saw a Sparrow Hawk fly into some brush by the house and man those sparrows took right off. Do they make a plastic Sparrow hawk as well? What's your opinions?

Only successful way I've seen is to seal the sheds off tight so they can't get in.

Shotguns work too, but not in populated areas.

Just watched a pigeon yesterday starting a nest directly under a platic owl

My brother in law had pigeons move into his open implement shed so we shotgunned a few and strung one dead one up with baling twine from the trusses , they moved on to more favourable conditions .

You could have a radio blasting music in there . It can be annoying for you as well though .

Opera. It works best for annoying me.

Pigeons go at night and use a flashlight and a good pellet gun. Shine the light on them they just sit there. Pellet gun doesn’t go through the roof like a 22. Very fond memories of doing this as kids.

The radio won’t work. I worked at a potash mine where we had loud speakers playing a loop of pigeon predators. Eventually they would stand and ch!t on the speakers.

I hear they’re good eating but don’t think I could do it.

Yeah I'd like to try one one day, kinda like the grain fed doves they eat lot of in the states.
