To make a homemade pigeon deterrent, use reflective surfaces like old CDs or aluminum foil strips to scare them away. Hanging these around your property can create an environment pigeons find unpleasant. Alternatively, mix chili powder, vinegar, and water in a spray bottle and apply to the areas pigeons frequent. This creates a scent they dislike without harming them. For an eco-friendly option, install spike strips or bird nets to physically block their access.
