I have a problem with pigeons. They perch on my air condition units, atop f the window frames. Actually all round the place. I have a lot of bird spikes up and a hawk but they just move to another place and start shitting there. Is they any poisons available to sort them out once and for all.

No, but they are mortally afraid of snakes. I bought a bright green plastic one from a $2 shop, put it on the roof of the conservatory, and never had another dropping to clean up.

Unfortunately, you may not be allowed to poison them. However, for a little light relief ( it won't solve your problem at all, but might make you feel better) listen to this
Where did you find that. i do not agree with the sentiments but it was good, lol.

You have never heard of Tom Lehrer? I recommend that you investigate him further on Youtube! He is very clever, and a favourite of mine.

I've experimented with some pigeons on a window ledge. initially they avoid a selection of animal and snake scarecrows but soon get used to them not moving.

There is a product you can buy and it causes a slippery surface, maybe you could smear some along top of window frames and on air conditioners.

Find out who is feeding them and get them to stop, they hang around where there is a regular food supply. Or try an air rifle.

They come into my kitchen and steal cat biscuits.

Y es, the advice that comes with a new crow tells you to shift it every so often. most don't, so most experience failure.

Yes, he's great! Way back in 1961 I gave my boyfriend John a long playing record of his songs. His tongue is firmly in his cheek so don't worry about what he says about pigeon poisoning. I don't go along with poisoning pigeons, I actually like them, though I can see you do need to scare them away from your windows and AC units. Re Tom Lehrer, you might also enjoy 'I hold your hand in mine, dear'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjPhFSlhOuQ

there is some thing called hot foot that will stop them landing on anywhere you put it .the other thing is to feed them wheat soaked it whisky and pick them up drunk and put them in a box them later in the day go for a drive and let them go a few miles away .just kidding
