Unless I misunderstand something, I do not see how the products can work unless they are given continuously throughout the breeding season and that the bait is part of their principal food source. Since pigeons graze over a wide area daily, any method of feeding would be haphazard. Maybe they could help limit or slow down population growth at best. The question is whether any other birds can consume the leftovers during the 49 weeks of its half-life.

For thousands of years pigeons were one of the most beloved birds on earth. It’s only in the last fifty years they have become a “nuisance”. I could get very “soap box” about this subject. Suffice it to say, our hearts are hardend.
