Howdy folks.

Got a question , The farm I work at wants piegons gone . I got aboiut 10 with a pellet gun early morning off the rafters.

farm has tourists on it 7 days a week.this morning tried the same tactic they took off. this was 2 weeks after the 1st time.

do ya think a red lense might not spook them as much? what else could be done .traps are out of the question brought that up already.

thanks in advance

is there any way you can shut the barn up ? we used to close the barn up and with a lamp and a .22 or air rifle just have at em , they cnt go anywhere and once they settle pick the rest off that you didnt hit the first time, it somtimes helps if you go away and have a coffe for ten minutes then go back

Crazydog it's illegal to use lamps on birds if you are in the uk so a red filter would be a no, could you not leave the lights on for a bit after the doors are closed, then when they get used to roosting with the lights on hide up in the bales and take them out then

lock them in and finish the job mate .i was asked to do a job on them last year and i locked the doors and 2 hours later 83 ferals accounted for farmer happy

No it`s not. You can lamp feral pigeons legally. Get the barn doors shut, see if that helps..
