I seem to have a large number of pigeons in the garden and unfortunately they are pooing all over the garden. Not very nice for my 4 year old who has got poo on his clothes a few times today when playing on the grass.
Any tips on how I can stop the pigeons from pooing all over the grass?

Worked for me. But it'll only cover a small area so you'd have to move it around

Well i guess that you could buy a few 
My idea was to discourage pigeons in one particular part of the garden and it did that well enough.
I move it around the garden periodically and it seems to make it less attractive in general.
I eventually built my own remote controlled water jet and mounted it in the tree where they settle to have a look around before landing on the lawn.
Have you got any idea what makes your lawn attractive to the pigeons? In my case it was smaller birds scattering seeds from bird feeders.

Yup could get a few need to figure out how I would split the hose to feed multiple units. I’m sure you can get a splitter for a hosepipe, will google it. My idea was to discourage pigeons in one particular part of the garden and it did that well enough.

Not sure what attracts them to the garden, not sure if it’s due to neighbours on either side having bird feeders

I was joking about buying lots- they aren't that cheap.Not sure what attracts them to the garden, not sure if it’s due to neighbours on either side having bird feeders

Loving the advert "3 times scarier than the average decoy"How many pigeons did they interview to reach that statistic lol
These things do work though, kept birds off our balcony at our old flat
