Laser Pen as a Pigeon Deterrent?

Laser Pen as a Pigeon Deterrent?

Pigeon Patrol flying pigeonPigeon Patrol thought that this was a funny story. Lasers are great but you need to be there every night to disrupt the birds. Contractors NBC Bird and Pest Solutions, which regularly fly hawks to scare the pigeons away from the Holyrood building, have now resorted to using laser pens. But today, pigeon specialists voiced fears that the pens could blind the birds and said they would never recommend them. pigeon patrol laser

The use of laser pens only came to light in documents obtained under Freedom of Information.

In monthly updates on the contractors’ work, parliament bosses were told: “Targeted pen lasers have been used to disturb and disperse pigeons roosting at night. Most visits concentrated on the dawn and dusk periods to disturb and deter roosting activity.”

In addition to the laser pens, the contractors are also using “optical gel” (4-S GEL) – a substance which is spread on surfaces and makes it appear to pigeons that the area is on fire.

A spokesman for animal welfare group PETA added: “Laser pens can damage pigeons’ eyes just like they can humans’. 

Pigeon Patrol agrees and thinks that the better deterrents would be bird spikes or pigeon spike, 4-S gel, bird netting or the Ultrasonic repellers.

Pigeon Patrol wonders if the Council staff will follow through with their threats?

Pigeon Patrol FeedThere are large numbers of pigeons that sit on roof canopies of shops and in pathways, particularly Bowen Square and Foundry Place.

Apart from looking unsightly, spores from dried bird droppings can spread diseases similar to pneumonia and influenza if they are inhaled as dust and carried by the wind.

The new signs ask shoppers not to feed the birds and warn them that they could face a fine or prosecution for doing so.

David Cribbin said: “Feeding the birds is technically littering and can cause a potential health hazard.

“The new signs in the town center make it clear not to feed the birds and that people could be fined or prosecuted for doing so. However we hope that it won’t come to that and that these signs will act as an effective deterrent.”

Pigeon Patrol offers clients a variety of services for Bird Control that will suit the needs of their facility. Pigeon Patrol products have solved pest bird problems in industrial, commercial, and residential settings by using safe and humane bird deterrents with only bird and animal friendly solutions.

The waste site next door attracts many birds such as seagulls and pigeons due to their form of transportation of waste.

Fifty pigeons were killed in a fire

Fifty pigeons were killed in a fire

Pigeon Patrol came across this sad story on how pigeon deterrents were not used but fire was used to kill Fifty pigeons on an East pigeon patrol fireCleveland allotment in the early hours of this morning.  Fire crews were called to the allotments in Liverton Mines at about 12.30am. They used two hose reels to extinguish the blaze, which they said killed approximately 50 pigeons and damaged the pigeon loft.

A police spokeswoman said: “Enquirers are ongoing to determine the cause of the fire.”  Using simple bird or pigeon deterrents, like bird spikes, bird netting, Ultrasonic repellers to get rid of the birds from roosting may have helped save these pigeons lives.

Pigeon Control: Controlling the Problem

Pigeon Control: Controlling the Problem

Giant Pigeon PatrolSo here is another company tell you what is the best pigeon deterrent is: Let’s have a peak!

The Bird spike system plays a very important role in preventing the birds from roosting on the ledges. Tips are blunt which don’t hurt the birds and also prevents them from creating the nest. Wire system is also used in warding off the troubles.  Tensioned stainless steel wire is an effective barrier for birds and would go a long way in providing amazing results.

Yea they got this one right!!!

 

Bird blaster is a control device with Dopler radar and an air compressor. Hose is installed around the perimeter of the building or the billboard. Joint feature of the solenoid keeps the air flow to the surgical pipe closed. When a bird flies in the vicinity, the radar transits the information. Hose opens up and a loud noise is emitted that scares the birds away.

Pricy and the city can get you to turn it off for good!!!
