I have an organic vegetable farm and the birds are killing me anyone have any ticks for keeping them away?
Question:I have tried mirrors and flags etc but so far no success
Answers:
My mother uses junk CD's and DVD's to keep them away. She also uses tinsel, like for a Christmas tree. She has had very good luck and it's a great use for all those AOL junk CD's you get in the mail.
Also, at a shop where my husband used to work they put up owl statues on top of the building so birds would not perch on the building and poo on the vehicles below. Worked like a charm.
Good luck!
Not for ticks. But plastic snakes will keep birds away.
Believe it or not one sure way to keep varments away from your crops is human urnine and hair. Pee into several small containers and place them near your patch. Also go to a barber shop or hair saloon and scatter the hair around your spot. Good luck.
Take cat, or wild cat urine, and place it in different parts throughout your garden will help keep the birds away. Birds are afraid of cats. Also, if you place bird feeders several yards away from your garden will help keep the birds happy and away from the garden.
I knew a guy that put several black snakes and cow snakes in his garden to drive away birds, since the snake were non-poisonious, there was no danger to his family. The snakes also took care of the moles, rats, and rabbits, that destoryed his plants.
