The easiest way to control where pigeons go is to control their food source. If there is no food source, generally pigeons don't congregate. If it is already too late for this, the next alternative is to lay small short little spike stripes that prevent the pigeons from landing on any flat surface. This is commonly what is done in Europe in large populated areas.

Live traps seem to be the most effective humane way of controlling pigeons in urban environments. Using netting to exclude them from their nesting sites is also effective.

Humane methods of pigeon control?

Pigeons can be a significant pest in many areas. It can be difficult to remove pigeons, but there are various methods of pigeon control that do not require inhumane treatment. Rooftops are generally the most common nesting area for pigeons. Pigeons prefer to nest on top of the roof because it is flat. Modifying the grade of the roofs surface is an effective way to discourage pigeons from nesting there. Ultrasonic devices can be used effectively to control pigeon activity. The high-pitch sound is inaudible to the human ear but pigeons are scared by the sound.

How do you prevent pigeons from defecating and building nests on your balcony?

This is a common question and unfortunately a common problem, especially for wildlife removal in Toronto.Pigeons are not only persistent birds but also, they are carriers for disease. Do not believe everything you read! First and foremost, a gigantic bird statue or scarecrow will not work. This is an ineffective method to control pigeons.Depending on the company (and where you live as local laws will dictate), you may either resolve this using humane, chemicals, or a combination of both. Try googling "pigeon spikes" and you will find some pictures of a humane way of controlling pigeons. This works quite well.
