Birds around your home can bring a very nice atmosphere, but that is not the only thing that it brings. Bird droppings can spread disease, and the droppings also contain acid which can eat away at your driveway and other surfaces. Birds can also build nests inside of vents and chimneys, posing a fire hazard, but also leading to ventilation issues.
Putting up a scarecrow or a noisemaker might work for some, but usually, birds will get used to these and won’t be deterred for long. So what are your options if you want to get rid of birds?
It is important to deny birds easy access to food. If you are sowing grass seed, covering it with hay or something similar will keep the birds from getting to the seeds. For some, it might be necessary to install netting that will prevent the birds from accessing areas where they seem to congregate or nest.
