Nowadays, all kinds of birds in the countryside are very annoying. A few years ago, birds were not very annoying, because the mountains in the countryside were full of various crops, and the birds had a lot of food to eat, so the birds did not cause much damage to the crops at that time. But now many rural farmers go out to work, and only the elderly grow a little food. In addition, many birds are now protected animals, such as pheasants and sparrows, and no one dares to harm them. However, their ability to reproduce is relatively strong. These birds are indeed a bit rampant and cause a lot of trouble and losses to farmers. But we can’t kill the birds, but the birds keep stealing food. What should we do? The following methods are now provided:
The first is to hang some red plastic bags. There are long bamboo poles stuck everywhere on the ground, and several red plastic bags are tied to the bamboo poles, so that when the wind blows, the bamboo poles will whistle. Birds are highly alert animals. If there is any movement, it will fly away quickly.
The second method is to hang the disc or tape. Compact discs can reflect light, as can magnetic tape. However, this tape is not the previous Walkman tape, but a video tape that is wider than the previous music tapes. I remember cutting firewood in the mountains a few years ago and I noticed some CDs and tapes hanging all over someone's field. At first I thought it was a child's prank, but later I heard the villagers say it was used to deter birds. Because of these reflected lights themselves, the shaking in the wind will reflect the light from different angles and also disturb the birds.
The third method is to use smell to expel. You can take some small boxes, put some smelly food or some moldy seeds in them, soak them in diesel oil, and then place them around the planting site. In this way, when birds come to steal food, they will smell the smell of diesel and stop stealing. Of course, if conditions permit, you can purchase some high-tech bird repellent products, such as soundproof bird repellents, bird repellent nets, bird repellent ribbons, etc. However, it is not very profitable for farmers to grow crops, and these technological products have to increase their costs, so most of them are unwilling to do so.
