Pigeons

Please don't feed the pigeons! Please dispose of food waste thoughtfully and let pigeons feed the natural way.

  • Feeding pigeons attracts pests and may put human health at risk - food fed to pigeons can also attract rats and mice.
  • Feeding pigeons results in more damage to buildings - more pigeons simply means more pigeon mess.
  • Feeding pigeons makes the birds dependent on people - pigeons are wild birds and are capable of fending for themselves.
  • Feeding pigeons may deprive other birds of food - in the garden, smaller birds are frightened away when numbers of much larger pigeons arrive.

For Financial Year 2023/24, the charge for carrying out treatments is £98, however  Gulls/Pigeons/Birds (misc) and Bed Bugs as well as some larger insect infestations require a Pest Control Officer to visit to determine the best course of treatment and a price will be discussed at that time. 

An uplift of an animal carcass is £44 for financial year 2023/24
