Many people like to feed pigeons in city parks, but they don’t want to see them as “residents” of their summer cottage.

First of all, they will become a threat to the plantings, because they decide to try them.

Also, don't forget about the large amount of droppings. However, it is not so easy to drive away the birds.

What techniques are worth trying?

Noise and glitter

Pigeons are not particularly fond of any shiny objects and rattles. Therefore, they should be hung directly on trees and fences to make the area unattractive to birds.

Spices

Few people know that pigeons have their own weak points. For example, they don’t like certain spices. They will need to be scattered around the area.

Pay attention to the places where you most often observe pigeons. Use cinnamon and various types of pepper. Mustard powder will also be effective.

Onion with garlic

You have the opportunity to harvest a large crop of onions and garlic: pigeons simply cannot stand them. Plant crops around the perimeter and next to trees.

If you combine the methods, you can definitely forget about pigeons.
