How to Keep Pigeons Out of Your Garden - Save Your Plants

Ways to keep pigeons out

Here are some of the best ways by which you can keep the pigeons away from your garden:

  1. One of the best ways to keep the pigeon away from the bird feeder is by making the bird food completely inaccessible for the larger birds. Thus, do not keep the bird feeder in open space as that can provide ample space for the pigeon to perch. Then, it will become more difficult for you to scare the birds away. Hence, you must consider purchasing a bird feeder which is smaller in size. You can also build one that can only support the weight of small birds.

  2. Another great way to keep all the pigeons away from the garden is by scaring them. Hawks and owls generally feed on pigeons. Hence, pigeons will not enter into your garden if they believe that owls and hawks are present in your garden. The best way to do so is by encouraging owls and hawks to enter your garden. But that can be quite difficult in real. So, placing a plastic owl or hawk decoy in your garden or bird feeder can be the best way to keep the pigeons away.

  3. Another option that you can try is by equipping an electronic device that can repel the pigeons from your bird feeding area. These devices use some sound of distressed birds. This sends a message to the pigeons that the area is potentially dangerous.

  4. The fourth way to get rid of the pigeons is by installing nets all around the garden. This can keep pigeons away from the garden. Placing this pigeon netting all around your garden can obstruct bothersome pigeons from accessing your plant and creating nuisance all around. Though this method is used by many, it may not be the most cost-effective solution.
