Keeping the pigeons at bay
posted by Annie
I know that I have alluded before to pigeons copulating outside my window. And I hate it. I wish it would stop. I don’t want any harm to come to the pigeons, I just don’t want to be awoken by them in the middle of the night or in the morning.
So here is a remedy that I will be trying. We just have to see if it works.
I put ten drops of peppermint essential oil in a spray bottle and sprayed as much of it out my window as I could. Outside of my bedroom window is the fire escape, so my sprayer didn’t go quite that far. We’ll just have to see if it’s enough to deter them.
Again, I don’t want to hurt them. I just don’t want them practicing their free loving ways outside of my window.
I will let you know how this works.

We definitely were not awoken by pigeons in the morning. So far, so good!
