I find this hard to believe. There has to be a lot more to attracting the pigeons?
Reminds me of a recent trend, at least in Sweden - Bee hotels. Small bird house like things that are said to attract bees. Everyone started selling them for a while. I bought a few of them to friends. But I don't think they got used.
Putting up a structure and expecting it to just work seems a bit optimistic. Is there more to the secret sauce?

- shellfishgene 4y agoConsidering that keeping pigeons from nesting in buildings and structures is an industry in itself in many cities, I find it very easy to believe a tower made for the purpose will attract then!
