Hazing Stubborn Birds - 04/04/17 02:30 PM
Anyone found a way to scare off Ibis and keep them gone? You can jump them, but they'll be back quicker than you can get back to your truck. Doubt there's anything effective, but I thought I'd ask. Lethal isn't an option.
Geese and ducks are easy. They can be scared and pressured, but these suckers know they're not in danger so they're pretty stubborn.
Habit modification may be the only option....

Have you tried laser harassment? A laser pointer from any office supply store and just shoot them in the eye's, especially at Dusk/Dawn.
Be careful not to get any aircraft! LOL

Take me a while to shine a laser in 300+ birds' eyes
How long will they stay away for? If it's not for days at least then...

Know anyone that's used it? Awfully expensive. Id have to see a gazillion reviews saying that they didn't have any birds at all for me to buy a dozen of those puppies.

The use of pyrotechnics (screamers and bangers) persistently will eventually run them off for a day at a time. They are very stubborn in my experience.

There are several airports in louisiana with them. In the process of getting worse for ours.

Interesting. May have to keep an eye on their results
