Tiny feathers keep flying into my apartment. I have to keep removing them from the floor, she said. "I feel it is unhygienic when I am cooking and the feathers fly in." "We had jointly signed a petition letter to press him to dismantle the pigeonries but it didnt help." Another elderly woman said she could never dry her clothes outside as the feathers and droppings soiled them every time. "We are forced to install screen windows everywhere," she said.
