TARGET BIRDS: Pigeons.

WHERE TO USE IT: On the ground, on roof tops, on asphalt and basically anywhere you are able to establish a feeding location for pigeons. If you already have such a location, make sure it will be a large enough area to hold the trap as well as being accessible for getting the trap to the location.

RATE OF APPLICATION: Each trap can hold up to 100 birds. Like all live traps, it is best if you establish a feeding location prior to setting the trap out. Do this by scattering some corn out in an area you would like to use for pigeon trapping. Do this as long as needed to get the birds to learn of the location. This will usually take a few days and can be done during the time it takes for your order to arrive. When the trap is received, place it out where you have been pre-baiting and then place some seed just outside the trap, by the access doors, but be sure to bait a lot more in the trap. Place about twice as much bait in the middle of each outside section of the trap and then about four times as much bait in the mid section. It is also suggested a small amount be placed just inside some of the doors. Pigeons that know the area will come looking for food and when they arrive, will find some just outside the trap but will quickly notice a lot more inside. This should prompt them to enter and once inside, they will then notice even more in the middle section which will lead them to venture into this chamber. Since the bait placed outside the trap will be consumed first, it is important that you have a lot more inside making sure to set out quantities which will not be consumed by trapped birds too quickly. Having both bait and birds inside the trap will help get more birds trapped - particularly when outside placements run out.
