Dear JWB,
I just wanted to thank you. We have a ranch with 32 stalls with
horses and lots of hay. We had lots of pigeons--at least 150.
They would roost in the barn up on beams and leave pigeon droppings
all over the place, including in our horses water. I decided
I had enough. So I looked around and found "birddamage.com"
on the internet. I was interested in your pigeon cage, I e-mailed
you for more information and received it very quickly. I looked
at it and other possibilities and decided to order the live pigeon
trap. I received it quickly and it was easy to set up.
We now have it
in our barn. We first put just cracked corn in the cage and caught
a few pigeons a day. We have now learned that when you also put
a pan of water in the cage that it helps drastically. We are
now catching about 20 birds every other day, sometimes every
day. I caught about 60 birds last week! We now have reduced the
population of birds to about 40 and I am sure they will all be
gone in a week. This trap has made a big difference. It was well
worth the $84. I thank you very much for this awesome product.
I will refer it to everyone with a bird problem.
Thank you. Mark

BIRD
TRAPPING
When scare devices are not providing good enough control, the
only option left is to trap the birds. There are several traps
designed today which work for just about any nuisance bird you
may encounter. Trapping birds is easy. First, you need to establish
a feeding location. This is done by placing a known seed or food
they like to eat at a specific place. Do this daily. The goal
is to get the target birds feeding where you will be able to
set a trap.
If you have a
specific food item birds are attracted to, it makes sense to
use that item as the attractant. Other choices of attractants
include cracked corn for pigeons, old bakery goods for starlings,
sunflower seeds and millet for sparrows. Try to use a location
that will make the birds comfortable. Such areas include a flat
roof, in the birds fly way near the barn or building, a large
vacant lot or asphalt area, wide open fields, or elevated platforms.
