Pigeons taking over
We have multiple pigeons roosting above the windows of our brownstone- does anyone have any advice on how to get them to stop hanging out & crapping on the house?
THanks very much

Get a statue of an owl and put it above your parlor floor window or front door. It'll scare them away.
Or get Bird-b-gone: http://www.birdbgone.com/

buy some rat poisoN and bread. Lace the bread with the rat poison and feed it to the pigeons.

pigeon wire...it is like spikes so they don't rest there.
I had do my cornice once...and it worked.

Agree about the BirdWire product - much more attractive than the spikes. You can paint the posts to match your stone and it is barely noticeable. Here is one links showing the product:http://www.birdbusters.com/bird_control_wire.html
BTW: I have been told that poisoning pigeons is illegal, even if rats do not get the same protection.
