[Prior art] Apartment houses, shrines and temples,
Or pigeon dropping has become a problem in various public facilities. For example, in apartment buildings such as condominiums, pigeons flying to the veranda contaminate the veranda, the handrails of the veranda, futons and laundry dried on the handrails, and cause great inconvenience to residents. Conventionally, in order to solve such a pigeon problem, various methods have been proposed and put to practical use, such as installing a strong magnet on a handrail of a veranda or hanging a balloon with a picture of an eyeball on the veranda. However, the fact is that it has not achieved great results.
There is a need for a more powerful repulsion method.

[0003]

In such a situation, the present applicant has studied various repelling methods and found that the method of attaching the adhesive sheet to the handrail of the veranda can repel the most effectively. In other words, if the pigeon stops on the railing of the veranda, the adhesive sheet will stick to the feet of the pigeon and it will be difficult to move, and it will not be able to fly immediately if it is immediate, which will be a heavy burden on the pigeon, and once experienced, it will be in the same place twice It stopped, and a great effect was obtained.
However, even with this repulsion method, although sufficient results can be obtained in terms of repelling the pigeon, the pigeon leans forward with the foot taken by the adhesive sheet, the body of the dove adheres to the adhesive sheet, and the adhesive sheet There was a problem with animal welfare in some cases when the pigeon was hurt when removing it.
