Re: What do you do about birds ?

Here in Southern Missouri we just shoot at them every day till they get the
idea.
(no we're not killing them) and rubber snakes work great .
I have a fair size orchard and have few problems with birds that are year
round dwellers .
mostly the migrating birds are harder to control.
My Grandpa used to swear by hanging the dead crows in the trees , but we use
rubber snakes and shotguns effectively.
best regards,
Barry
