Pigeons are commonly seen as a pest because they often appear in large numbers and take over an entire space. This means any food left out for other wildlife will be hogged, nesting areas could be filled, and every time you open your back door you'll be met by a loud percussion of flapping wings.
If you're wondering how to get rid of pigeons humanely but effectively, there are lots of methods out there. But perhaps the best one is a little trick that doubles as a chance to elevate your yard: pigeons detest certain metallic and bold red shades, so adding those to your garden will send them on their way.
