Pigeons nesting in roof gutter

[Starfish38]

I am a council tenant in a maisonette block. The first two floors are several self-contained houses, then there are stairs up the sides to access the other row of houses. I'm in a middle downstairs house. Just a few years ago I contacted the council because there were a couple of nests, they look like grass growing over the edge of the roof, overhead of my garden (only downstairs have back yard), and because I have pets. In fact, I have contacted them three or four times and haven't had a response. One of those times was a phone call and it seems that it's a question of economics, scaffolding would be required. Now, there is much more of the nesting across a longer length of the roof edge and when it rains, the water drips from the nests a bit, which is more than enough if they have diseases and there are pets in the garden. What can I do, if anything, to make them remove the nesting pigeons?

Possibly speak with your local MP to see if he can help.
