My photo of the problem at the Ramesseum prompted one of my readers to send this photo of Medinet Habu. You can see underneath the erosion caused by the droppings. I do hope someone is paying attention to this and some kind of solution is being worked on.
Let Horus take care of it. Many airports will hire a Falconer to fly falcons or hawks in the areas where flocking birds are a problem. The presence of a bird of prey in the area will usually keep birds like pigeons or gulls away. Here in Canada many cottage owners will put a lifesize plastic owl on their docks to keep geese and ducks from "fouling" the shoreline area. It's worth a try to keep the ancient monuments preserved and clean.
