Scare Tactics
Birds are scared of humans, but who has the time to stand in their garden all day? Creating a scarecrow can be a fun project with the kids and also aid in keeping pesky birds away from the garden while you’re at work. An advantage to having a scarecrow is that you can move them around. It is important to consistently do this so that birds don’t eventually realize your scarecrow is artificial.

Fence Out
Netting can lead to more effective results than scare tactics or animal replicas. Netting can easily be draped over a plant, ensuring no entry from birds. By placing netting on your garden, you can sit back, relax and watch your plants grow. Another great feature with netting is it allows your plants to breathe, guaranteeing healthy growth for your garden. Be sure to still monitor your plants though, as birds are still able to peck through your netting.
