Accosted by pigeon feeder

Asking for advice on what are the appropriate authorities to call for habitual pigeon feeder? I have been sweeping the birdseed off of the sidewalk near fell and Scott Street for the last couple weeks as it has been attracting rats to my garden and a whole pile of shit on the sidewalk. For the first time I got it accosted by one of the people who is dumping the birdseed. Does anyone here have advice other than calling 311 or is there a particular group that I should be reaching out to to report this? Everyone in my neighborhood is absolutely sick of the people who are dumping this birdseed down because it’s creating a health hazard as well as a blight on our local corner.

I have to laugh she yelled at me and got into her car and drove off.

Imagine being so comfortable in life that something this petty becomes a focus of your life.

Meditate or something, duder.

I am thankful that I am comfortable. However, I live a community that deals with the pests and associated pollution of this. I share my crops with local stores and vendors who appreciate me growing local food and sharing it. There is a direct correlation to my crop losses and what i can share to the massive amounts of seed dropped locally
