Hello, for the last one month pigeons have been littering at large scales on my house parapet wall. I have 2 kids and I am worrying about their health due to this. Please let me know any tried and tested methods to get rid of pigeons. Thanks in advance

You  will  have  to  work hard  kn that  case  atleast  for  a month  with proper follow ups at intervals.

Scaring  the  pigeons   with  sound  ,  shooving  them  away  , etc .

Also  do check if anyone  is  feeding  nonstop  grains  whole day  like kabutarkhana  nearby .

If kids are old enough to understand or do listen to you/elders to be careful
then the parapet's surfaces can be covered with (wooden or other) planks.. from which UNEVEN length nails are jutting out .. every few centimeters.

In a large city with dense urban population and thriving crow and pigeon populations.. we successfully tried this for the outdoor unit of the HVAC, where pigeons messed around.

Other way is to have mummify'ed or preserved with formaldehyde.. dead body or bodies of pigeons kept around the terrace.. i'd those smart-dumbasses can see it as a threat to be in a murderous place.

Else a realistic looking/ lifelike idol/ mannequin of birds of prey.. like hawks, eagles or even an animal like an angry looking cat.

Else every day.. leave a toy pigeon or bird hung upside down.. as if stuck.. and vigorously trying to move (robot bird/ battery operated toy) .. which might look like birds get trapped there.

Otherwise, if the property is self owned
then as advised by @IOCL-Baba, you may consider caging the terrace.

The multiple building residential complex we once stayed in.. did it.

Installed metal sheets/ FRP sheets covering/ ceiling on the terrace and sides where all closed using thick net type plastic structures.. with limited opening places.. in case the top floor residents want access for external repair or the messy satellite dish maintenance.

I read somewhere that they get scared of the shine from CDs. You can try that

I tried. It works for few days. After that it adds no value.

Install or tie shiny objects like CD or inner side of chips and biscuits packets , cut into pom pom like lines so that it waves in air.
