I got pigeons outside my apartment window. It faces the alley so they all crowd in there at night and coo and flap and make noise. I want them gone.

been shooting them with an airsoft pistol for the past two days, but the pellets don't have enough velocity to kill em... or even hurt them... they laugh at me when i try shooting now. :(

Rice? Alka-Selzer? balled up whopper wrapper?

EDIT: real guns are out, unfortunately.

I hit one with my car before, I thought he was going to get out of the way and he didn't... usually they fly right out of the way!

Grab a tippman a-2 sniper, get the cheap-o paintballs that don't break. stick a scope. Put a bipod. aim. fire.

Also. use Nitrogen :D... and RAISE THE PRESSURE.

Get yourself a paintball marker. Electronic hopper + frozen paintballs going @ 300+ fps = no more problem

o! frozen paintballs, more excellence! Question: if a frozen paintball hits a wall, does it spliter (explode) and would that damage windows?

the best part of this thread is that someone suggested one of those huge fake owls which would quietly and nondestructively take care of the problem and the OP made like he didn't see it.
