    I was on a feral cat removal contract for a well known multinational shopping chain and after catching a very large and particularly vicious tom in one of our cages a “knowitall greenie” threw curry powder in my face which burned my eyes and he then attempted to free the feral which promptly bit and scarred him for life😂😂😂

    Done some pigeon clearance in a couple of local town centers a few years back, had to book in with plod before we started at midnight.Had some youths sitting on walls started giving us grief but we ignored them. Then one shouts out 'Here comes a copper, now your for it'. We didn't leg it like they thought we would & plod just walked over to us & started talking, he asked us how many we had shot, we told him 72 & he said 'Well done' & walked off, you should of seen the kids faces!!! Finished at 3.30 am with 133 pigeons & some pissed off kids!.Checked the town later in the week & it hadn't even made a dent. Council now tries to limit the pigeons access to food.

      +Guy Wood, he may have been savaged by an enormous wood pigeon as a baby. I think a gang of foxes may also have stood around laughing at the poor unfortunate...they may have been encouraged to do so by an evil squirrel...a bad influence on any impressionable fox. Possibly unable to satisfy a woman, Roy slaughters innocent birds... who came to town to escape low powered, lame tubby wannabes.

      ^ That you see above (with the Pigeon Profile pic) is the dictionary definition of "But Hurt", commonly found on those with a soft spot for festering disease ridden creatures that defecate throughout the city, safe to assume that he probably votes the same way.
      Seriously though, those pigeons are a pest, there are valid reasons for their removal. It might be ok for you to cry out for their defense, but considering what those with small children living in the area might think of the mountains of shit those things are leaving on the ground, in playgrounds and the people themselves, your stance of mollycoddling those filthy things is untenable. Stop with the warm fuzzies and grow a pair.

    My Grandfather use to be in pest control, and one job was in Preston (UK) to control the population.
    They used a poison feed to kill them, but the poison was too weak and they flew off only to rain down randomly on people and everywhere.
    This method is certain a better and more humane method to control the pests.
    Pigeon breeding numbers are silly.
