Pigeon Patrol came across this interesting story about how Pigeons navigate similar to Pilots.
Pigeons have a limited mental process but despite having small brains, they can navigate extremely well.
Pigeons are influenced by visual properties of the landscape and use landmarks as a navigation tool. If the area is too bland and the same, pigeons have a harder time finding home; I guess that’s why pigeons like to hang out on the roof tops of buildings.

Pigeons just love new things, Pigeon Patrol Staff came across this bridge of a situation.
For some reason, pigeons have marked off a very clear patch of the new Hastings bridge as their own. They apparently have no interest in spending time on any other part of the bridge. Rather, they congregate on the northbound side of the bridge on the arch about halfway up.
Minnesota Department of Transportation bridge project manager Steve Kordosky. “I don’t know why they have selected that particular spot.”
Kordosky thinks that since that part of the bridge faces south, it warms up faster than the rest of the bridge.
Well who knows why birds do what they do!! I am sure that if some of Pigeon Patrol’s Ultra-Flex bird spikes or pigeon spikes were installed, or some of the new 4-S Gel or even an Ultrasonic sound Repeller that would be enough to deter the birds from the bridge.

Logging onto www. pigeonpatrol.ca you will find an assortment of Sonic and Ultrasonic Sound emitters selling or being released in January 2014:
New Ultrasonic Tube from Pigeon Patrol
Sonic sound emitters, are one of the most effective deterrents on the market. Consisting of a central unit together with a Tweeter, the system emits distress calls and calls of predators of the target species as well. Effective emitters randomize pitch, magnitude, time interval and other factors to prevent birds’ getting used to them.
Ultrasonic electronic devices produce high pitch emissions in ultrasound. The sound is designed to be too high pitched for people to hear, but audible to most birds. This has the advantage to preventing disturbance to neighboring households.
All of these units work well indoors and outdoors claims Pigeon Patrol
Products and Services, the Canadian leader in bird deterrent products and bird control. On their website www.pigeonpatrol.ca is loaded with vital information on how these units work. Areas of use would include hangars, warehouses, plants, tunnels, loading docks, boat houses, underpasses, storage sheds, barns, sports arenas, convention centers, parking garages and farmers fields.
Pigeon Patrol Products & Services sold hundreds of these units last year without a single unsatisfied customer or return.
The company also sells pigeon spikes or bird spikes, bird netting, bird lasers and a new gel called 4-S Gel.

Vancouver, B.C. Canada, December 20 2013
Despite having installed more than 250,000 feet of bird spikes and a million feet of netting to keep pigeons off residential and commercial buildings in and around Vancouver, pigeon patrol expert Andrew MacBain from www.pigeonpatrol.ca says the pesky birds are winning the war.
“It’s worse than ever,” says the Surrey-based entrepreneur who has installed bird spikes and netting at BC Place, the BC Ferries terminals, BC Transit and other buildings throughout the Lower Mainland. “The pigeon population doubles every year.”
The mushrooming pigeon population in all the Canadian Provinces pose a threat to public health. “Most people don’t know it but, in addition to the threat to public health, pigeon droppings can also destroy water pipes and roof membranes,” MacBain says. “They also damage bridges and other structures. If the droppings aren’t flushed away, they dry out and turn into salt. Combine that with rain, and you get corrosive rust which weakens the steel support beams.”
That’s another reason why commercial property owners are anxious to log on to www.pigeonpatrol.ca and have Pigeon Patrol Products & Services protect their buildings and steel structures with bird spikes and netting.
“If they get the protective devices installed early enough, owners can save themselves thousands in damages,” MacBain says. “It’s a very low cost type of insurance.”
In addition to BC Place, BC Ferries and Jim Pattison Group Signs, Pigeon Patrol Products & Services has installed bird spikes and netting for more than 250 property management and real estate companies. With the growing demand, Pigeon Patrol now sells all of their bird deterrents products right across Canada on their website www.pigeonpatrol.ca.
The company now installs sound and ultrasonic repeller bird control units on the roofs of shopping malls and warehouses. The pitch is high enough so that the pigeons hear it but humans don’t. The company is also testing an organic gel that repels the birds for up to two years at a time.
Pigeon Patrol Bird Spikes were designed in Canada and are made from stainless steel and other recyclable materials, which provide flexibility and durability. The bird spikes or stainless steel pigeon spikes come with a 10-year warranty.
Pigeon Patrol Products & Services has promoted its products at trade shows like Home & Garden Shows, Vancouver Build X, The PNE and this year PM Toronto Expo. – and recently succeeded in placing them with Rona, Home Hardware and Roofmart.
“The pigeons are winning,” he says. “They just keep breeding. But I have made a difference. They don’t land on the buildings I have protected with spikes and netting. And, over the last five years, I’ve installed protection for thousands of property owners. Vancouver has a pigeon problem. My buildings don’t.”
