[QUOTE="BigDinNoCo, post: 1794735, member: 26421"] #1 : I had an issue with large blackbirds removing waste from their tree & systematically placing it in a row on top of my hot tub cover. Strangest thing ever. I waited with an airsoft pistol & came very close to hitting it, but it still wouldn't be scared off. I installed a fake owl (one of the bigger ones like 18" tall or so & with a moving/rotating head). It immediately worked. #2 : I had a rodent issue while up in the mountains at our cabin. Got inside the engine bay & scratched the s**t out of the foam engine cover. I bought 3 owls (couldn't find the same ones as before & these are little ones & they don't move). Now whenever I go up there I set one on the tonneau cover & move it every day. I filled the bottom with dirt/rocks so it can't blow over. Seems to be working. Yes that's rodents & not birds, but worth a try. Just keep moving it daily. #3 : Very recently a couple birds made a nest in one of the decorative corner supports of our house(stucco over styrofoam so they can make a hole & then dig the thing out to make a home). I got them out by banging on it & so far, crumpled up aluminum foil right inside the hole seems to have made them relocate. #4 : Several of my neighbors have put up those shiny metal strips that move in the wind (looks like wind chimes, but without the noise). Not sure if it works, but just another idea. Can't stop the s**t, but if they aren't around, you made them s**t elsewhere. Don't give up & let us know if you find something that works.
