How Do You Catch Pigeons

They will be eyeing the food and each other, while you stand nearby, periodically sprinkling more food. Keep your eye on the pigeon you want to catch. Slowly advance until your open hand is hovering, palm down, immediately above the pigeon, then, in one swift motion, drop your hand down, pinning the bird to the ground.

What is the easiest way to catch a pigeon?

The best ways to catch a pigeon outdoors is to lure it with food. The easiest and least fussy way is by baiting a cage trap with food. This is not an instant solution. The pigeon needs to learn that food will be available in the same place regularly.

How do you trap a pigeon at home?

1. Leave the door open at first. Don’t set the trap.
2. You will want the pigeons to get used to the trap’s presence in their feeding or roosting area.
3. Place some bait inside the trap in the meantime to get the pigeons used to going inside of it. Cracked corn works best.
