I hate pigeons. One time after a job interview here in Vancouver (luckily after), I was walking downtown and suddenly was just pummeled with pigeon crap. I'm talking WW2 bombings all over me. I got myself cleaned up as best as possible but had to take the bus home with huge stains all over me. Ever since, I've been looking for a way to get revenge. One day I will crap all over a pigeon.

I had a pigeons nest in one of my houses under construction. Tried as I did to scare them away, they would not leave. Fearing that they'd get boarded in when the vapor barrier went up, I had to eliminate them. The trusty pellet gun took care of that in fine fashion. I kinda felt like a hypocrite though. After going to lengths to save a nest full of robins in the same house, I went and killed the pigeons. But it served 'em right. One day I was walking around the house checking the framing and one of the buggers started flapping around me. I had a hammer in my hand and the sudden noise scared the bejesus out of me and I almost hit myself in the head with the hammer. It was then that I knew that I would kill the f'ers.

I dunno how it would work for night, but if you could substitute maybe a water gun then it might work without concern for bystanders.
So, is it legal to discharge a BB gun within city limits? I too, have some pigeons that need to be forcibly evicted. They've decided to nest in the eavestrough under my deck, which I can't get to. Might have to call someone in with a long ladder to mesh the eaves in.
Or, I can I shoot them?

This is a way better demonstration of an airsoft minigun.
Might not look as cool as a bunch of rubber bands flying out at 10 feet per second...but this is probably 100,000 0.30gram plastic pellets travelling at 500 feet per second at about 50 rounds per second

Yes you can discharge them in city limits just fine. Just don't be stupid and shoot other people or their property or leave a mess or point them at transit cops
Whatever you do don't go out on the balcony with an air-gun that looks like a rifle (with scope!). The Calgary Police response is extremely heavy... I think I had about 6 guns pointed at me that day. Less then a year ago, but seems like yesterday. Oh... and they also make you spend the night in the Remand Centre... met some good folks there.

No green text means YOU SERIOUSLY DID THIS? What were you thinking? I've shot BBs out the balcony before, but I stayed inside the house, on top of the bed...underneath the covers.

They are scavengers so they eat until they are full. When the rice expands and the ultra basic drano reacts with their ultra acidic stomachs...poof. No more effing pigeons. Just hopefully they explode over other peoples property.
FTR I have no idea if this is true. I know some birds die like this, hence the no rice at weddings anymore.
