Snake needed

3dkicker · 05-03-09, 07:37 PM

Why you ask? Because the birds are crapping all over my vehicle and boat. Got home today, cleaned up the boat, went inside and came out and found a major white mass of *&$# in the middle of the back deck. Had to hose down the boat and cover. Went back inside and came out and found two more. F*$#ing birds

.

Anyone know where I can get a realistic rubber snake for cheap??? That ought to keep them away from the boat.

I used to have an old neighborhood tom cat that I fed every once in a while that kept them away. I don't think he made it through the winter. Haven't seen him around lately

if not a snake, check out the local home depot or lowes. they carry wooden owls that keep the smaller birds away

jest git yerself one o dem RED RYDER BB GUNS LIKE ME. trust me kill one and leave it, the others will see what happens and stay away, hahahahahhaha.

for real, the rubber snake might be found ata novelty shop or magic shop or even a toy store. the owls can be found at your local seed store, or cattle feed store.

Some bird seed on your neighbor's driveway should work wonders

jk

Yeah, I think the faux owl technique works better than snakes......

Ya, who need snakes?

Just get a plastic owl or hawk and put it in a tree!

Around here we gots buzzards, and when that poop, they POOP!!! Times like this I', glad we have a white truck!

We have lots of hawks in sothern Idaho, the desert part (betcha you would never connect Idaho and desert) is a cool place to watch that happen, I have seen it a few times.

+1 and maybe a live tree snake.

The Red Tails get run off by the birds. Got a large group of Grackle who have made nests in the trees that surround the property. They may as well be geese from the size of the crap they are leaving behind. And this just started this week. I've never had this problem with the birds around here before. I figured a snake would keep them off the boat and truck.

You can get a 12 foot animatronic rubber gator here too.

Kinda pricey though.
