Default Bird Control - Some Success

I tried the CDs on a string, and it didn't work at all. I tried the rubber
snakes, but that only worked temporarily. I finally decided to block all
the access points with cheap carwash sponges (still in the plastic wrapper)
in the empennage and rigid plastic netting from Home Depot which I cut into
a shape to fit behind the nosewheel.. That worked until I got a hangar.

Some of those CDs AOL keeps sending out might work, too.


Audio tape would probably work well too. The tinsel has quite a bit
more shine to it though. I thought about the CD solution but I could
not figure out a mounting solution that did not create a safety issue
in case I forgot to take it off.
