DO NOT FEED PIGEONS!

Pigeon droppings stain homes and public amenities. Diseases can also be spread to humans through contaminated droppings or through contact with diseased birds. Feeding pigeons is an offence that carries a fine of up to $500. Those who throw food from their HDB unit may also be prosecuted for high-rise littering.
To raise awareness on the problem of pigeon feeding, we recently collaborated with Ai Tong School students to reach out to residents at Thomson Sin Ming Court RC Resident’s Day and 24th Anniversary Celebration. Their colourful specially-designed recycled bags were a sure-hit with the residents!
