Members of Exeter council decided this week that any at- tempts to solve the pigeon problem in the downtown area should fall to local businessmen rather than council, The subject of pigeons was broached when council received a letter from the board of management of the Downtown Business Improvement Area in which a design for a pigeon trap was included. The letter was a result of, a recent meeting between the board and Councillor Lossy Fuller, who had been asked by council to investigate the possibility of eradicating the pests. Board member Gerry Gray advised that the trap used coat hangers, which were bent and rotated in such a way that the pigeons could get into the device, but not out. Noting that pigeons "are followers rather than leaders", Gray suggested the trap should be baited with one or two pigeons as well as a good supply of feed. Reeve Si Simmons im- mediately suggested that the board should construct their own trap and not leave it up to council. His suggestion was approved, although Mrs. Fuller said she would be happy to meet with the board and suggested council should cooperate in the con- struction of the trap, "The biggest problem may be in getting the one or two pigeons to put in the trap," Councillor Ken Ottewell commented. When it was noted that the pigeon population appeared to be on thedecrease,Councillor Harold Patterson suggested they were out in the fields eating grain at the present and would probably return in the fall.
