Sparrows roosting under eves ?

lanomist · 2012-03-24 17:26:44

I am about to paint the front of my terraced house but have a problem with bird droppings on my door step and window sill. The birds are roosting at night on the piped tv cable running the length of the terrace.Can anyone advise on the best method of stopping the birds from roosting there. Thanks.

Its a kinda of grease that will more or less not dry up..If you put it on the wire they might not be able to perch or sit on it...
