Within residential areas, there are certain measures that residents can take to prevent animals from coming into buildings or staying in the vicinity. For instance, to mitigate the serious pigeon problems in some neighbourhoods, the authorities can consider using deterrence measures such as aluminium nets or wire mesh to keep pigeons from roosting in the area.
Bird nettings or bird spikes are other measures that can prevent pigeons from nesting on apartment ledges. Such measures can help to keep birds away from residential properties, reducing their noise pollution and defecation problems.
