Solution: Parking area – First placed bird trap on top of overhead mechanical ducting. Trap was out of site of public. 2-3 resident pigeons were trapped in the first two days. However, over the next two weeks there were three more pigeons that would not approach the traps. They continued to crap on customer cars and building mechanicals.
We scheduled an early morning visit with the property manager, a safety watch person and our Deturd Bird Control Worker. Our man quickly eliminated the 3 pigeons using marksman competition airgun.
