Rows of semis with gardens give pigeons a steady supply of rooftops and feeders to visit. We deal with the eaves, chimneys and porches they settle on.
In a suburb of post-war semis, pigeons often start on the chimney or the ridge and then work down to the gutters, bay roofs and garden fences. Bird feeders can add to the draw, since seed on the ground brings flocks in. We look at both the roofline and the garden to see what is keeping birds around, and suggest proofing where it will do most good. Cleaning off droppings regularly stops the scent that draws birds back, though it does not replace proofing.
Droppings on conservatory roofs, patios and washing are the usual complaints. Because wild birds are protected, we use lawful methods only, and avoid anything that could cause harm. We explain what we propose, give a fixed price and answer questions about cleaning. Where a neighbour is feeding birds, we can suggest how to approach it sensibly. If you do feed garden birds, a feeder with a tray or guard helps limit what falls to the ground.
Seed spilled below feeders attracts pigeons, which then look for places to roost nearby. Moving feeders, using trays or reducing spilled seed can help, alongside proofing the places birds already use. Conservatory roofs can be reached with care, and a single line of deterrents along the ridge is often enough.
Droppings can stain and build up on roofing, and the weight and acidity are not good for some surfaces. Deterrents at favoured perches and regular cleaning help protect the roof. Chimneys with open pots can also be capped, which keeps birds out as well as rain.
No. Proofing is designed to stop birds landing or nesting, and the methods used must be lawful.
