Im tired of these birds crapping all over my boat and bimini and dropping little stinking sea foods into the boat. I want to kill all these birds. What is the best poison for seagulls? How do you deal with them

Re: Tired of sheet

Your thread is funny.
Besides a boat cover or a roof over it theres not much else you can do.

Actually, there is NO humor in this whatsoever! Perhaps the OP just needs to find another hobby...

Re: Tired of sheet

Is this parked at a marina?

Many boaters around here use a kite that looks like a hawk attached to a flagpole to scary the little buggers away.

They are a nuisance. Get a cover. Then the cover keeps the sheet off the boat.

I've been to alot of marinas with that big orange and black eye that looks like a beachball. Maybe that would work.

Sea gulls are a great pain in the ars. If you in a low traffic area,shoot them with an adult air rifle. It will give them a whole new outlook on life!!

Seagulls are a Protected Species. Killing one will get you an all expense paid vacation to the Federal Pen ;)

Those things don't scare them at all.

The only things that work is there is a motion controlled sprinkler and at limited range an ultrasonic speaker set up.

The owls and beach balls do nothing, neither do the cones you put on the pylings I've watch them skip empty ones to land on the cone.

Re: Tired of sheet

I don't think a judge would care about the poo problem.

Talk about poo; you should see what the Canadian Geese, Mallard ducks, Cormorants and Sea Gulls combined do to the docks in the off season...and if they come to like your boat :eek:

How bigga boat we talkin' here? Multiple surfaces?

Does loose thin netting work? Tented up? I don't know, but was just thinking about it. Always been kind of fascinated by this.

In Florida, a lot of docks have fishing line strung up, like a loose net, the sea gulls hit it once, and don't really come back. You don't harm them in the process, but they don't like the net.

Re: Tired of sheet

If you are going to invade territory of wildlife you need to deal with wildlife behavior.

You could kill a thousand gulls and they would still poop on your poop deck while you languish in the Fed Slammer contemplating how to get along with other critters.

Yeah, Shane, Landfills do the same thing for the same critters. I'd forgotten that.

Agree. WTF? Mass bird extinction? OP should be banned for the post.
