A few blogs back, we noticed a pigeon on the skylight. We thought that was pretty funny, watching it waddle in the funny pigeon walk, across the glass. The next day we noticed a feather on the front steps? We thought, hmmm, must be from the pigeon? Then by fluke Dean noticed that there quite a few pigeons on the roof!! Not good!!! They are bad for shingles, they poop everywhere, and it went from being funny and cute to what a pain in the butt in seconds!! So now we had to investigate. Dean pulled the screen out of the front bedroom, we asked each other, how long could they have been up there without us noticing? HUH!!! When we looked and saw the massive PILE of pigeon poop, we guessed they have been up there AWHILE! So, Dean on a mission got the hose up and out the window, and blasted the roof (and a few lingering pigeons) with hot water. The roof had to be cleaned, and then the next step was to buy an owl, to keep them away.
Now to get back to the beginning... the connection to the laundry and the pigeons, is actually no connection.... no connection of the water hose that is!! Dean kinda forgot to hook the washing machine back up to the tap, and I kinda did laundry with an open tap, so... later when I sploshed into the room, it donned on me! Oopsy, the hose is off!! But luckily there was allot of laundry, so... the clothes soaked up most of the water! ( I know... me and the damn laundry stories! ) But to date... the pigeons have not returned!
