Tony It does not seem specific, just any eating the crop that is sprayed.

G Glen I have had a major problem with birds this season in particular blackbirds,thrushes, starlings digging plants up out of the ground , between 50 -250 plants at a time. It became so bad this year that I had to cover crops with netting. it is also very frustrating to get blackberry and oldmans beard growing in amongst the crops. I even have them digging up mature broccoli plants in the vege garden. Along with sparrow I consider them a noxious pest along with rabbits and possums. Sparrow poop on flowers does not excite the consumer. Will bird scare help in this area? Thanks Ton y

Re: Help with Our Feathered Friends
Hi, Sorry, if I repeat someone elses comment. I haven't followed the discussion on this topic closely. Has anyone mentioned flying a hawke, kite, any bird of prey type of kite? Some grape growers are doing it here in Sunraysia, Victoria, Australia, and since they are doing it for several years, I assume they are having some effect. The main problem I think are honeyeaters sucking the sweet juicy grape berries. Yesterday I saw a cultural gem that brought a real happy smile to my face. I was driving a long the road, when something bright and colourful caught the corner of my eye. At the end of each row of fruit trees, I'ld say at least ten of them, huge stuffed scarecrows were put up in the most brightly coloured clothes; all human shape except for one that depicted a dragon or dinosaur. My guess is that school kids from the local primary school (they are very active here in hands on experiences having their own vege garden, planting trees, monitoring river salinity, breeding and releasing biological control agents etc.) made them and put them up. I do not know, if they work, but they are beautiful to look at, and I am sure the kids had a ball making them. Christiane

Re: Help with Our Feathered Friends
We have a bird scare spray which has shown good results on various crops. We are beginning trial on grapes with HortResearch tomorrow and should have the results in a couple of months. Otherwise you could have a go. What is your crop?

TJH BD peppers applied at homeopathic potencies can work well, and applied radionically with a field broadcaster pipe can be very effective too, however its easier when the birds (or any mobile pest) have an alternative venue. You also need to be mad enough at the birds to kill one for the pepper or lucky enough to find a fresh one dead (road kill). Cheers Lloyd Charles
