If its a house and its summer tonnes of birdseed in their yard, handfuls upon hand fulls. Then let the birds do the work.
Id theres a lot of feral cats in the neighbourhood a d they have a garden buy a shitload of catnip seeds and absolutely saturate their yard.
Come spring time its a nightly cat gangbang in their yard.
What would this achieve? Lots of birds? A bit of bird poo? I don't think I'd even notice if someone did that to me
The neighbor i did it to his fence on the one side luckily not mine, the tree, the swing off the tree and the entire roof of his house was just covered in bird shit by the end of summer. I did have some friendly fire on my house but not to the point i had to get it professionally cleaned. Seen alot of beautiful birds around that summer, and i dont even remember what the sumbitch did to piss me off just enough.
Most homeowners I know would be very bothered having their entire house, yard, deck, and driveway covered in bird shit. It's less effective if you live somewhere that gets regular rain, though.
Birds shit on everything anyway, no?
I'm in the UK so yeah, pretty much constant rain lol.
The bird seed affects the position of the birds see
It makes sense that the impact of this wouldn't register as much with you, in that case.
Its effectiveness is very much relegated to specific geographical areas. :D
Spell something on the lawn in birdseed. Sure, birds this year. But next year the extra fertilizer will cause the grass to grow greener in that word.
It's really the rats that would be the nuisance. Wherever bird seed is, rats aren't far behind.
