Introduction
As beautiful and as natural as they are, birds are certainly not the creatures one wishes to have flying about in their lawns, especially not during the beautiful, blossoming spring time. In fact, for many of us, birds have proven themselves to be the biggest predators of spring time beauty. And thus, time and again we constantly look for ways to protect the splendor of our lawns and gardens. It may be difficult, tedious, and often very tiring, but at the end of the day, most of you do want to sit outside on your patios and gaze at the beautiful colour of spring with admiration for what you’ve created. But the truth of the matter is that birds will instinctively and undoubtedly ruin your gardens and, with that, all the hard work that has been put into it. So how does one make their Gardens ‘bird proof’?
History
Birds have always posed as a threat to the beauty of gardens and lawns alike. When you go back and think about all the different ways in which people have tried to get rid of birds from their gardens, you will certainly stumble upon various innovative ideas, and those ideas don’t stop today. One way which proved to be the most common form of bird proof was indeed the scarecrow. However, today, the effectiveness and use of the scarecrow is limited to works of art. Nonetheless, there is still a great need to bird proof our gardens and homes. Back in the day, birds contaminated gardens and lawns not only through the destruction of the greenery but through contamination by droppings that can carry any of the 60 known diseases. Throughout history, lethal methods to eliminate birds have been prohibited due to the wildlife and animal rights law, and thus before you think about killing birds or spraying them with fatal blends, you should think again. Keep your garden bird proof so it remains beautiful.
Features
The most environmentally friendly and lawful way of protecting your lawns against the contamination and destruction of birds is indeed by frightening them away as opposed to brutally torturing or killing them. Today, we can easily avail products in our local departmental stores such as the ‘Bird Sonic Systems’ that broadcast predator or distress calls to frighten birds away. These sonic systems are effective on different levels according to your specific personal requirements. However, these are only one of the many bird scaring devices that are readily available to use. Similarly, the market place also offers various Bird netting that helps protect your plants and flowers from extensive damage. All of these bird proof devices are very economical and affordable and indisputably effectual when used correctly.
Tips and comments
So, for all of you devoted gardeners, farmers, landscapers, and aesthetically aware people, it would certainly be a very good idea to install not one but various different bird proof devices to protect your lawns and gardens. It would be wise to invest in high quality and durable equipment that may indeed be more expensive than lower quality products but will remain resilient and serve its purpose for a longer time.
