Hello Bob, if you will put a turbine on the roof of your loft and have good
ventilation there shouldn't be much of a discernable smell. The only thing
I hang in my loft is Vaprona strips for bugs. I do know of people who use
cedar shavings. I don't know if it is for smell or for insect control. Have
you talked to Wild Bill J. or do you want me to fetch the birds for you?

Yo Bob,
do you ask because you want to cover up a bad smell from the loft?
I normally use cedar shavings, spread over a wood floor, which has
always worked for bad smell. However, the bad smell HAS to be from
accumulated WET droppings. And the absolute WORST bad smell is from
babies wet droppings in the nest box. The wet droppings totally cover
the outside and the rim of the nest bowl, where it attracts flies and
other vermin, that lay eggs in it. This is why I use disposable nest
bowls on top of newspaper. As soon as it gets too wet, you just throw
the whole mess away and replace. But if you have permanant nest boxes
and bowls, a thorough weekly scraping will solve that.
Also, after visiting several very healthy and clean lofts in L.A.,
I'm getting ready to put in wire floors. No access for the birds to get at
it, also dries out quicker. Will also save me $15-$16 a week not having to buy
the cedar shavings!%^) I have seen that wire floors are very conducive to no
moisture in the loft. hence a healthier loft.
I DO hang a sheet of Fabreeze fabric softener in the loft to keep mosquitos
out. (Works too!)
Yo man, tell Kevin I said "yo!"

hey e man, there is just the normal " pigeon smell" coop is bone dry, my
reason for asking this is that as i type they are building a new house some 35_
40 feet behind my loft and i know how people can be about birds, everytime my
wife comes out in the yard near the coop she says " oh it stinks" its just the
pigeon smell same smell when you go to a show or pet store i dont even smell it
anymore , just curious if i could hang anything outside the loft so these new
people dont have that reason to complain

im looking for, of course in these buildings there is never a super around to

Go to a supply house for cleaning supplies. I think that the Kroger and
Meijer stores sell a deodorant block to hang in a commode. Also there
is a product that we used to use to block smoke smell. It came in a
dispenser can with a wick. It was a very strong citrus smell. It also
came in other flavor. I will talk to friend to see if he has any and get
it for you.

Yo Bob,

I would recommend NOT using air freshener in or around the coop. Pigeons (
all birds) have a much more sensitive respiratory system than humans and I
don't think any chemicals are good for them in that manner. Mike.
