Debunked.

See:

http://www.snopes.com/critters/crusader/birdrice.asp

Birds eat rice all the time - at least in rice fields.


Rice in rice fields are not dried. Look at the source. In one study 3
out of 5 people prefer Pepsi. In another, 3 out of 5 people prefer
Coke. In another, 3 out of 5 prefer Dr Pepper. The first was funded
by Pepsi. The second, Coke. The third, Dr Pepper. Carefully study the
source of the "expert" or study. The information presented is of
dubious reliability.

I need to kill some pigeons. Any ideas. I could care less if it's
illegal.

I have tried ant poison, and decon rat/mouse killer as well as
automotive anti freeze.

Yes but 5 out of 5 in all surveys fart in grocery stores.

Not true in all surveys. Girls don't fart, they "fluff".


And that's not always true. My ex ripped one once in an Ames (K-Mart type
store) and it rattled the bottles on the shelf. Of course, I immediately
disowned her and bolted elsewhere.

This should have been a sign that things would not go well in the future

Give them Alka-Seltzer. They explode.

Yeah. Have lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of dead pigeons
laying around. And then someone calls the law. Then the law calls the
feds. You want to get hooked up with EPA and State Wildlife?

I didn't think so.

Steve

Just tell the EPA and wildlife that Stacey Chuffo spread her legs and all
the pigeons dropped dead.

Probably be a breath of fresh air compared to that pie hole of yours.

This may not be germane, but when SWMBO and I were in Quebec City about
six years ago we learned that they were aiming at keeping the pigeon
population under control with feeding stations containing food which
didn't kill the pigeons, but made them sterile so they couldn't breed new
generations.

I have no idea if it worked or not.

Jeff

It DOES work, but all the pigeons do not ingest the bait. And then new
pigeons are arriving sans green cards every day. So, it does reduce the
number of pigeons, but doesn't do much about their nasty living habits.

UPDATE: killing pigeons - Use Mayonnaise

Most birds do not eat rice, hungry or not, so ignore the junk you see
below about that. Don't use poison (or anti-freeze) because of the risk to
the environment and other wildlife. If your problem pigeons are in a flock
of about 20 birds, get them to feed in an area of easy access. Then, throw
a net over them. Best way to do that is to 'eject' the net or leverage the
throw because the birds will fly off if you get too close or throw the net
too slowly. There is a device that flings a net over a small area but I
have not seen one around my area. By netting you will definitely get a
few. Next, club them with a stick or 2x4. Collect the bodies in garbage
bag and throw in a dumpster. Or, if the target area is less than 50 yards
from the nearest home then shoot them with a BB gun. My experience is that
if the birds don't hear the 'pop' of the gun, 3 or 4 will lay dead or even
flop a little before the rest get a clue and fly off. The problem with
raptors is that the trainers/falconers are not plentiful or don't live in
your area and are expensive and require multiple visits, and the raptors
don't kill all the pigeons, far from it. Having a owl figurine or two on
your fence post doesn't work. Pigeons get wise to it after a fashion.
Crows ignore it. But, many people use these. It seem pigeons can be both
stupid and dumb - some methods to get rid of them work well and others not
so well or not at all. Try different methods, use your imagination. I once
saw a man reach down and grab a pigeon feeding at his feet. He then stood
up with a windup throw and slammed the pigeon to the ground instantly
killing it. The other pigeons stayed away for days or weeks.

If pigeons, open season, but 'doves' might be protected.

If a few nuisance, on around your house, destroy the perching places. Use
"hot feet" and paint the areas they stand on/perch on. Burns their feet,
they leave. If can't do that, and the birds are on/around your house, THIS
IS ILLEGAL, get a six foot long STRAIGHT piece of metal conduit and smooth
the inside of each end. Take 8 up to 16 penny nails and wrap a paper cone
around the head, tape with scotch tape. then cut the cones to just fit
inside conduit tube. I found it easier to make the cones, then push the
nail into them. Depending on your ability, you'll quickly learn to use the
blow gun. Killing power is awesome. Will penetrate a metal garbage can.

If you miss a shot, no big deal, retrieve the nail stuck in your house,
better than a bullet hole. And makes much less noise early in the morning.

- .177 cal pellet "assault rifle"

- remove any nest and eggs from hiding places along the roof line.
Pegeons are like geese - wanting to nest the same place regularly so
destroy the nesting areas.

- pack/place black landscape fabric cloth in hiding places ('pigeon
holes'), prevents entry and shelter from the elements.

On a related note... the seals inside the wheel cylinders on Chrylser 9" drum brakes are a
perfect fit inside 1" PVC electrical conduit. With a 10d nail pushed through the center of a seal,
even a three-foot length of conduit makes an awesome blow gun -- and you'd be surprised
how quickly you can become quite proficient at hitting a target with it.

I have done this. The power is amazing. I used drywall screws and electrical twist caps. 2 rounds of tape to seal it.

I was going to suggest grenades...

...but then I thought about it some more.

Seriously, birds eyes respond to movement. That's why a hawk can see a mouse moving on a field over 100 yards away. If the mouse were still, the hawk would never notice it or even see it.

What you want to do is use something like a scarecrow, but one that will move in the wind. As long as the scare crow "flies" or appears to move in the wind without any means of support, the pidgeons will realize that it's big enough to feed on them, and probably leave the area. I would contact some of the exterminators in your area to see what's available in the form of a wind toy that looks like a hawk, eagle or other large bird. I know that one of the churches in Winnipeg has large plaster eagles on it's steeple to keep birds away, but I expect it doesn't work well because it doesn't move. Even a bird brain would soon figure out that something that doesn't move can't chase it down and eat it.

Can you use air compressor and quarter turn valve
for motive force?

Why won't anyone give a straight ****ing answer? Who the **** loves those damn flying rats that much that **** all over the place and cause disease? I would also like to know how to poison and kill these nasty ****ing pigeons. If no one has an answer then I'll just trap them and pour boiling water on their nasty asses...or maybe pelt them with an air soft gun until they die...is that better than poison? So **** all you disease loving nasty assholes.

Do you realize the original post is 6 years old?

Talk to an exterminator, mine gave me two bags of cracked corn, 4 days
of the ordinary corn left on the balcony, then the second bag that was
treated with an LSD equivalent (his words). Bird now used to eating the
corned get stoned out of their minds, fly off and can't find their way
home. Never had pigeons again.

hungry kitty.

20 gauge Shot gun....

Unless you live in a fairly secluded place, the shot gun might attract too much attention from the neighbors or police. A BB gun takes a little more skill but is quieter.

What is the need to kill them? Do you have a good recipe?

The only source of the pigeons I'm concerned with is one miserable neighbor, who has 40 birds as pets. Lets the go **** on the neighbor once every day or two. I more so wanna punish him...

You'll end up[ with an enemy much worse than the pigeons.

Did you know pigeons poop 25 - 50 times a day?

A guy not far away has homing pigeons. that he keeps caged and lets
out on occasion. One pigeon is the leader so others follow. Pigeons
delivered top secrets during wars.

Worry about wild pigeons that take cover, nest, and live under the
eaves of your home.

They are stupid and you can get them to commit suicide very easily. Get
some pigeon food. Go out on the ledge where they roost. Show it to them.
Step off the ledge and they will follow you.

OK I get the idea and it sounds too good to be true. I bet that if I did that they would just sit there and laugh at me whilst I stepped off the ledge.... What should I do if it doesn't work? Is there a Plan B that can be managed from my hospital bed?
