Hi, In the last few weeks I've become overran with swans eating corn that I have put down to attract ducks into a spot I shoot. As swan numbers increased duck numbers and shooting have become non existent. Anybody got any ideas on how to tackle this? It was mostly wigeon and teal coming to feed in the area.

Try fencing off a small area with sheep wire and only feed inside it. Sucks can get through, swans can't.
