If they are roosting in the tree at night go out as they they settle in for the night and blast them for several whiles with the hose. You will have to repeat this every night for a week or so but they do learn. If they start coming back, repeat. During the day, no idea, escept maybe one of those portable car port thingys that look like tents. Of course that would work for the night time too. The hose method worked for me with doves when they would roost for the night in the elm tree that used to be next to the driveway. Good luck. Cea |

My mother taught her starling and magpie population to leave the birdfeeders in front of her house alone by shooting at them with a pellet gun. Took awhile, but they stopped coming around. (At least when she's home, anyway.) |

Rattling mobiles? Wind chimes? My mother taught her starling and magpie population to leave the birdfeeders in front of her house alone by shooting at them with a pellet gun. Took awhile, but they stopped coming around. (At least when she's home, anyway.) You could get an airsoft gun and shoot at them. The guns fire harmless little plastic bbs that certainly won't kill anything but they'll get your attention. And the gas powered ones are a real hoot - they behave just like a real gun (with kick-back and all). The spring powered guns you have to reset each time, which is not near as much fun. I use mine to scare off armadillos and deer. I don't know if they remember being shot at but they sure are fun to shoot. I buy my ammo and things he www.airsoftpaintballs.com cheers, Chris |
