When considering how to exclude feral pigeons from a given site the first question we need to ask is simply “Why are they there?” An understanding of the behavioural patterns of the resident pigeons is crucial to answering this question.

Bird Free is a multi-sensory repellent that acts on the pigeon’s senses (sight, smell and touch) without causing them any harm. Rather than acting as a physical barrier, it alters pigeons’ behaviour so that they no longer perceive their habitat as safe.

Hereunder, we set out examples of how pigeon behaviour at selected sites was “diagnosed” and how Bird Free was fitted in accordance with that diagnosis, thereby rendering their habitat abhorrent and causing them to abandon the site.
