    Got any Ideas????

    Okay here is the deal.. I go out of town for four days ... I leave the boat it is clean ... clean like a shining diamond and what do I find when I get back??

    BIRD POOP!!!! all over the bow and running down the transom... WHAT HAPPENED... did all the birds know I was leaving?? Did they have some kind of meeting while I was gone and decided to go eat berries and use my 37ft bertram that I worked so hard on to make cleaner than any of the other boats (just to show the guys that girls clean boats better ) was a potty for them to use?!?...
    The owner has tried the plastic owl.. yep you guessed it.. they sat on its head and showed it who was in charge... he has used some kind of sprinkler rig. but it kept getting all the boats wet... what else is there?? I have a pellet gun. But there are so many bird lovers here...

    How do I get the birds to LEAVE my boat alone????

    Does anyone else have this problem?


    I really really hate seagulls and black birds!!!!

    If you have pilings, string up monofilament between them.

    the boat is docked under a shed... we do have pilings..But, what does the monofilament do?... they seem to be landing on the bow railings and resting and I don't know what the bird on the transom was doing... I havent quite figured that one out yet.
