Now, here’s the secret: pigeons will only stay if they feel safe and well-fed. So, remove all food sources. Scoop up fallen birdseed from other feeders, and keep your compost bin tightly sealed. Don’t give them a reason to come back.
Then, reward yourself! Plant some pigeon-repelling herbs like lavender, rosemary, or mint. These smell lovely to you but offend their delicate noses. You get a fragrant garden; they get a headache. Total win-win.
