How do you prevent pigeons from returning to lay eggs?

Answer 1

Well, that used to happen to me a lot, like 50 or so pigeons in my backyard, I used an easy solution, shooting as many of them as I could, pretty soon, they got the message and left, they never came back since

I had pigeons on my apartment balcony. I put fly paper (the strips...use rubber gloves!) on the railing, on the patio floor that was the gap between the floor and the railing and near the point where I saw their poop. They don't like stepping on the paper and decided to go elsewhere.

Answer 2

As long as the birds aren't nesting, you can purchase a fake owl at your local home improvement store and install it where the birds normally roost. If the birds are nesting, wait until the babies have fledged (left the nest) and not returned for the night, then take down the nest and put the owl up. be sure to move the owl around occasionally so the birds don't learn that it isn't real. The owl is one of their natural predators, and its presence should deter them, but if it doesn't, try contacting your local fish and wildlife center for other safe ideas.

Answer 3

if a piegon nested on your window or ect. leave it alone till they hatch and leave. its a nice thing but annoying. trust me i know. if it lives in your back yard but does not have a nest then dont feed it and every time it comes just show it away. if it is injured call the animal rescue.

Pigeons do not like Birds of Prey. Home improvement stores sell plastic owls that you can place where they land or roost. You can try one or two and move the owls outward every few days to keep them further away. If legal where you live, you may get a permit to kill them with a pellet rifle but check the local ordinances due to restrictions.
