Tacoma Dome Station aka Pigeon Crap Central — All Aboard!

October 22, 2007 · Print This Article

Tacomadome Station is great for Tacoma but what will it take to keep it clean? Does anyone else feel like it is really disgusting and quite a health risk to have hundreds of communters tramp around in the river of pigeon feces?

Heres a short clip of the river along with the farmers market sign covered in poop which really cracked me up since that sure doesnt entice me to want to check it out. Would be nice if they could at least hose it down and maybe install more of those spike strips or something. Anyone know of any cheap solutions… I’m all for bb guns but I’m not sure how legal that is ;)

    I’m no expert, but it seems like hosing the area down once a day would at least clean up the mess.

    Apparently you can get anti-roosting spikes that help deter them:

    That would be nice it seems like they don’t even do that :(

Got something to say?
