I wonder if anyone's put their foot in their mouth?
Today, after 4 years of frustration, without cooperation from neighbours, our neighbour laughed off the fact that pigeons won't go away, by spraying them with water.
I offered the suggestion that waiting four years was too long for her. I'd put up spikes and had success, preventing their roosting on our side. Our neigbhour stated that the 57 dollars was too pricey for her, and she'd rather use a broom and water hose for the poop, while I looked in disbelief.
I wish I hadn't suggested their lack of interest, since I further suggested their bird feeder attracted the pigeons(I didn't mention the other menagerie of squirrels, etc). I don't wish to contribute to pest control professionals, because the cause was their bird feeder.
I wish I hadn't put my foot in my mouth, but maybe they'll figure out the source was that bird feeder - and they did remove it!
Anybody out there second-guess themselves?
