Default "Bird Cage" Revisited


"Jim Thompson" wrote in
message news
Many of you will recall several years ago I made a cage to prevent
birds from nesting in an entryway chandelier...

Prevents nesting, but the !@#$%^&* birds still hang onto the wire grid
and poop into the chandelier :-(

Since there has been recent discussion on S.E.D of flexible plastics,
I was wondering if there's something available flexible enough to redo
my "bird cage" so that the birds can't cling to it?

It's Spring in AZ, 85°F today, so my need is immediate ;-)

Make it a cat cage instead of bird cage :-)
Can you cut every other wire and bend it out to make it difficult to stand
on.
Probably not, I think the wires are to short.
My neighbors have 3" wire sticking up at +45 and -45 degrees off the top
of their mailbox to keep the birds away.

PS. I work on a marina and the idiots just love to feed the seagulls (flying
rats).
If you fed one you have 80 flying around.
