They are outside my window
on a roof,
6th floor,
so a dog is not an option, one enthusiastic
jump too many …
Ah, back to the drawing board then …
I have been thinking about setting up a feeding station just outside my
window to lure them in and give them a sense of security.
The feeding station should have a solid rear wall, bulletproof for 10 Joule
air rifle pellets. I leave the rest to your imagination …
How about 220v? Metal bottomplate on the feeder… ZAP!
Not sure about how to supply voltage to the head of the bird.
If the beak and the claws on their feet are both bad conductors …
I don’t know if they are… There is only one way to find out…
10000 V would do it though.
My father saw a crow landing on the high voltage wire of the local electricity grid and then
it tried to wipe its beak on the fasteners for the insulator.
ZAP! POOOFF and a little cloud of feathers slowly falling to the ground
Build a little electric chair for a pigeon?
Yes indeed, the ones sh*tting up the local neighbourhood
are bog standard cliff pigeons (Rock Dove, but their music is horrible).
The presence of raptors (hawks and falcons) in the area prohibit any use of poison
(tempting as it would be but not if there is even a 1% risk of a falcon eating a dying dove)
Here in UK to keep birds away you’ll often see these in gardens:

They’re mainly 2-dimensional so conceivably could be affixed to your window-sill and deter nicely.
and have the magpies screaming at it all day long?
I pay to click onto KitMaker ad free. Now I find myself clicking this thread to see what ads you guys are experiencing… and pigeon torture. What’s wrong with this picture?
Now let’s talk about the woodpecker pecking away at my car port and then there’s the rooster right behind my back yard! ![]()

Yup,
whenever I think about pigeons I hear his voice in my head
“how could it be against any religion
to want to dispose of a pigeon”
Umm, could someone maybe DM me why my question and statement about this thread was deleted? not trying to stir anything, just wondering what someone doesnt want me to talk about.
Respecting someone else’s sandbox, just please give me a heads up.
