There are many ways to trap pigeons or birds, but this is the most
efficient and ingenious way to do
it.

What you need:

A wire cage
An empty paint pail or plastic bucket with cover
A plastic water bottle
Some plastic straw rope

An Ingenious Way to Catc…

#1. Build a wire cage for your pigeons or birds using mesh wire
and some scrap wood. Determine the size based on how much
movement you think they will need. Leave an opening on top for
the bucket. You can use Styropor on top of the cage to create the
perfect round hole for the bucket to fit in.

#2. Cut two

openings on opposite sides of the plastic bucket using a hot knife.

#3. Hang the

covered bucket on one side of a simple wooden lever. On the other
side, hang the plastic water bottle filled with enough water to pull
the plastic bucket up.

#4. Fill the bottom

of the pail with grain and kernels.

#5. Pigeons are

intelligent and cautious, so they will not enter the bucket right
away. Scatter some grain on the cover of the cage to lead the
pigeons to the trap. Once the trail of grain on the cover is
consumed, the pigeons can’t resist the beckoning food inside the

bucket. #6. Once

the pigeon is inside the bucket, its full weight will bring the bucket
down to the cage, and voila!

There’s nowhere
for them to go but down to the cage. Rest assured that once you
have the pigeons inside the cage, they will lure the others there.
