A crow is attacking the windscreen wipers of cars in our car parks. It is a new building and it obviously nests next door to the car park. It sits on the bonnet and pulls at the windscreen wipers until they come off? Any safe, easy and generally acceptable measures for stopping this character? We would like to avoid anything that is going to lead to its demise!
Use the old farming technique – no not a scarecrow! Hang a few dead crows about the car park and your nuisence bird will soon get the message.
Not sure of an ethical way of obtaining a few dead crows though, maybe that should be your next question.

this true expert advice
appartently the crows smell something in the rubber which means "food" to them
and you are advised to wrap socks around the wipers
ie over them and covering them
i heard it on the radio
worth a try?
