We have pigeons (I think 3) living on the porch patio up on a crossbeam. We have contacted our property management numerous times now and they still haven't come to address the issue. I bought spikes to put up, but I'm unable to reach and don't have a ladder to reach. Could you please help with removing the pigeons? They keep pooping on the patio and it has been unusable for over 2 months now |

What is the nature of the problem: [From: Boston.gov Contact Form <q11l36xbfr40@contactform.boston.gov> Date: Tue, Aug 16, 2022 at 11:25 AM Subject: Chickens in Boston To: <cityclerk@boston.gov> -- REPLY ABOVE THIS LINE -- Hello, I was wondering if you could provide information about any issues you have had regarding chickens or if you have had any complaints. Do you feel chickens brought in more rats or is that not even a topic around chickens? I am currently petitioning for the allowance of Chickens in Worcester. Since Worcester is a smaller city then Boston I was hoping for some facts you have in regards to keeping chickens.

What is the nature of the problem: [consituent reports a neighbor is feeding pigeons. he has been feeding them out of his 2nd floor window. there are birds and bird excrement everywhere. the neighborhood now is covered in bird dropping on their cars on their siding on their roofs]

The house behind mine has multiple pigeons trapped in the garage. They’re very loud and they’ve been in there for over a week. The house is under renovation so I do not believe anyone is living there at the moment. |
