About it to incidents detected weeks ago by the Department of Sports, we designed a battery of measures with the aim of undertaking an overhaul point of the stadium. These actions began last Monday, when a crew of 8 workers in the Department of Employment began a general repainting of different elements of Artes Carrasco. These jobs will usually seal the surface of the grandstand bleachers, which is the one that is suffering the damage generated by this plague of pigeons. It should be noted in this connection that is needed is sealed again, because the earthquakes that Lorca has suffered in recent months have affected the sealing material , which now will be replaced. Once this task is completed, proceed to clean pigeon droppings accumulate in the soil by treatment with high pressure water also includes the disinfection of the affected area. "
Llamas Augustine explained that due to the damage caused by earthquakes in the sealing of the concrete slabs that form the floor of the grandstand of the stadium, it is not possible to directly pressure water cleaning of dirt resulting from the plague of doves, and the water would leak to the units located at the bottom tier (changing rooms, storage rooms and media room, among others).
That is why we will proceed first to the sealing of the plates and then cleaned with pressurized water.
Simultaneously, and the proliferation of the above birds, from the Department of Sports has been working since weeks ago to find an effective solution that Artés away from Carrasco.
Llamas pointed out that such pests are common, and there have been first division stage (Vicente Calderon and Mestalla, among others).
Given the existing solutions, has ruled out the use of air guns, as it has been shown that over time the birds get used to the sound of explosions and return.
It has also been ruled out direct hunting, it does not affect the group of birds but concrete examples, showing no effectiveness in previous episodes.
The solution seems more effective by technicians consulted, is the presence of hawks, the main predator of the pigeon.
This measure is used with success in both frequency and other football stadiums (Vicente Calderon), airports (Barajas).
