A proactive approach
Contraception alone is not enough. Vets For City Pigeons attributes its success mainly to its targeted, unique approach. This successful formula distinguishes us from other control systems on the market.
The pigeon is a social animal with a clear hierarchy within colonies, especially when eating. Dominant animals make up 15% of the group, get the most food, and reproduce quickly. These are the animals targeted by Vets For City Pigeons. Tackling these birds mean you indirectly reach the entire population. Administering R-12 in the mating season ensures the dominant group automatically receives the correct portion of the active product, which leads to fewer chicks being born.
You notice results quickly with R-12. And if you consider that a pair of dominant pigeons can raise up to 12 chicks per year, it’s easy to see why. The population decreases by 20-30% in the first year, and by up to 80% over 4-5 years. The population will also shrink organically through natural mortality during this time.
For optimal results, the kernels need to be administered 5 days per week, with an average of 8-10 grams per pigeon. This leads to a balanced, stable and healthy population.
To tackle the heart of the problem, we focus on a specific target group within a pigeon colony.
It’s an effective and reliable method that produces results quickly and guarantees long-term success.
