Neighbours call for action on noise, litter, and chaos from bird menace

Exclusive report by Gary Fanning

Imagine waking up every morning to the deafening cries of seagulls, the streets littered with trash, and aggressive birds dive-bombing anyone who dares to walk by.

For residents of Glasgow’s city centre, this is not a scene from a horror movie—it’s their daily reality.

With reports of attacks on people and pets, piles of garbage strewn across pavements, and windows double-glazed just to keep out the noise, the city’s seagull problem has reached crisis levels.

Frustrated and fed up, locals are demanding urgent action from the council to tackle what they call a “seagull invasion” before it gets any worse.

Complaints about noise, mess, and litter have spiked, with neighbours blaming easy food access from overflowing bins and street rubbish.

There have been multiple reports over the years about seagulls becoming aggressive, particularly during the breeding season.

Residents are urging the council to partner with environmental agencies to implement tougher measures, such as stricter rubbish disposal rules for businesses and fines for those caught feeding the birds.

Some have even installed double-glazed windows to block out the relentless noise.

Frustration is mounting, and locals want swift action to restore order and peace to their streets.
