I'm in a suburb,so shooting the bastards is out.What are crows natural enemies? Do those plastic owls work? These Damn things with their cawing is driving me nuts.Help! |
Has anyone tried lasing them? Urban areas rule out any kind of conventional blasting, and some of the high power green laser pointers are supposed to be pretty irritating... |
Well, it was worth a shot I guess. Try an airsoft gun. I used an airsoft pistol from Big-5 Sporting Goods. Cost me about $10.00 bucks plus ammo. Crows are gone. Doves remain cause they're stupid like that. |
That's why they're one of the only birds I'll pay attention to. Their behavior is interesting enough to watch that I'll tolerate them getting into the neighbors trash bags every trash day. They interact really weirdly with squirrels in my trees. Have never figured out their intent, but it's most likely food related too. |
