Birds can truly begin to infiltrate your home, especially in the summer when they are more prevalent. Did you know that there are actually quite a few ways that you can make sure that these birds are kept away from your home? Let’s take a look at some of these items and why they are beneficial to keeping birds away.

Clean Up Food Scraps

If there are food scraps in and around your home, this could be a huge problem. This is a problem because birds are attracted by this and will want to eat this food. Therefore, the more food scraps you leave around the yard, the more likely they are to come back and continue to do this.

Visual Repellants

These kinds of repellants are an easy way to keep birds away. These essentially mock the reflectiveness of the eyes of a bird of prey. Because of this, we can see that the birds are a bit more scared of the repellants, and therefore tend to stay away from the yard in which they are placed.

Fake Animals

Animals such as this are a perfect way to scare off a bird without causing them any harm. By having fake birds and animals in the yard, you allow for the other birds to stay away and this means fewer problems for you in the long run.
