My house and car are covered in pigeon poo because my annoying neighbour won’t stop feeding them – I’m fuming
A FURIOUS woman has revealed that her house and car are covered in pigeon poo – and it’s all her neighbour’s fault.
One resident on the street is feeding the hungry birds leftover bread before they perch – and go to the toilet – on the woman’s roof.
She took to Mumsnet to vent her frustrations, penning that she “constantly has bird poo splattered over her car, drive and windows”.
The dirty ritual starts with the pigeons flocking to the woman’s roof around 6:30am.
There they patiently wait for the neighbour to throw bread into her front garden at 7am.
The birds then swoop and squawk down to the grassy area before returning to the woman’s roof with full bellies.
The angry woman wrote on the online forum: “ I sleep right underneath and get woken daily by them thudding about above my head.
“It’s going to get earlier as the mornings get lighter.
“She doesn’t even get any pleasure from watching the birds.
“I’ve seen her throwing the bread as she leaves the house to take the dog for a walk.
“She doesn’t see them fighting over the bread, then s******g all over my stuff.
“I’ve constantly got bird poo splattered over my car, my drive and my windows.”
The woman has asked her neighbour to stop several times due to the size and noise of the birds.
However, her requests fell on deaf ears.
She assured she doesn’t mind her neighbour feeding birds but finds the way that she does it unnecessary.
She explained: “If she wants to feed birds, I have no problem with her feeding small birds using bird feeders with seed and fat balls.
“It’s feeding the large, noisy birds that is the problem.”
People on Mumsnet empathised with the frustrated woman and many shared that they had been in similar situations.
One fellow pigeon opposer replied: “My neighbours did this with pigeons for months. Really annoying.
“Then they got a cat and it took a few weeks for them to realise that throwing the bread out every day and letting the cat camp out in a bush, waiting to strike, probably wasn’t a good idea.
“They’ve stopped feeding them for now, thank God.”
Another said: “We had a similar issue with a random man choosing to feed the local wildlife on what was actually someone’s property.
“They got rats as well as the pigeons.”
