Angry Friggen crows!!!

AHHH!!!

Ok, I don't know why, but there are several crows that have been pecking away at my front door windows, and my back deck windows, I have no clue why. I didn't really care that much this morning. But now, it's go time! THEY'RE PECKING AWAY AT MY CAR!!! They're pecking at the front bumper, tires, everywhere, and I don't know why

Anyway, I'm going to give them a little treat, something I call bread ala bleech. I'm going to soak some bread in bleach and put it out in the driveway, and around my deck and door.

Does anyone else have any suggestions?

The crows must like Domestic cars where you live. I think the bleach thing is kinda messed up. What if you bought a scarecrow and put it on your car

Yeah I dunno, they must like shiny things or something, but this has never happened before, my car hasn't been washed in a while so it has been shinier and this hasn't happened then

Oh man, that bread reeks after putting bleech on it, but it's out in the driveway now, don't know if they'll go for it though.

I don't know what to do, I guess I'll try and park it in my garage, but sometimes it's full with stuff, I don't know this is messed up

Instead of killing the crows, why not just wash your fu*kin car???

And also, that's animal cruelty!!! (Also a crime)
I can't believe what I'm reading
Go get a car cover from Walmart or something.

My bad, I misunderstood what you said about your car being dirty, but as far as killing an animal for no stupid reason, that's just not cool under any circumstance!!!!!

Call me names if you want, but animals dont know better and they dont deserve to be abused either!

No no, crows and seagulls aren't animals in my mind. I'm not talking about killing dogs or cats, I'm talking about getting rid of pesky crows that do nothing but harm, they pick at garbage, strew it all over the lawn, they **** on cars, and they carry diseases. Would you let rats, or ants infest your house? This is somewhat the same situation, and I'm getting fed up with them because they are upsetting my grandmother when they are pecking on the windows of our house!

Call me cruel or whatever, that's your judgement and right, but I'm getting sick and tired of them pecking away at the house, and the car.

it's not rice, it's alka-seltzers that blow up birds when you feed it to them. don't do it, though; that's just f*ed up , but i do kinda go with majarvis on this one. i really don't feel sorry for the crows, but i think they'll just keep coming even if you kill a few off. they're not smart enough to know to keep away. i say just clear out your garage. maybe sell some stuff, so you can make money while you're at it

Yeah, my bread idea didn't work anyway, but I don't think they've come back again today. Maybe I should put the Chistmas ornaments back in the shed and make some room, lol.

I'm obviously not going to do that, it just annoys me with them that's all. And about a car cover, it gets driven too much, so it would be inconvenient to keep taking it off, putting it on, etc... Plus, it's not like it gets stored or anything.

Rice kills birds too. That's why a lot of animal rights activists want you to use those little things of bubbles and blow them at weddings. The rice will expand in the stomach of the bird and choke it. It won't have as strong of an effect as alka-seltzer but it can still kill birds.

Yeah, I don't want to kill them myself, but if they died from some other cause I wouldn't lose any sleep that's for sure. I just don't understand why all of a sudden today they decided to start pecking away at my car

maybe if you rice your car up (add a big wing, get apc parts all around, etc) the birds will die after they peck at your riced out car.

lol

Anyway, I think what we'll try doing is adding some planters infront of the windows, that way they won't see theirselves in the reflection of the door windows.

But as for the car, I don't know. I hope that it won't damage the car after a while, ther isn't any yet.

Maybe I'll just go out one day and give the crow a good old fashioned boot to the head, cuz there seems to be just one head crow doing this.

22 magnum rifle with bird shot.

Use birdseed at weddings. Except after that you have bird poop all over the place.
