 Turkey Vulture Nuisance

I have read that other than pellet rifles the vultures can be encouraged to roost elsewhere if you hang an effigy of one of them from its feet where you don't want them to be. And this only works if you also shine a powerful laser beam at them in addition.

So far I have not seen any turkey vulture dolls on the internet Wink yeah right Really I have looked.

Also Turkey Vultures are protected under the Migratory Bird Act of 1918, so you need a special permit to shoot them.

Another tidbit, because they deal with bacteria laden road kill they have the habit of urinating on their legs because the acid kills the bacteria. Hence why my roof is such a mess as they do this where they roost. Their defense system is to vomit on their attacker with that caustic mix of regurgitated road kill.

OK more than you wanted to know.

Dennis

I still have some capsicum shells left, if you wish to try that. They are 12 gauge ment for a flare gun but can be used in a regular gun. Capsicum is a mixture of Rock Salt and Mace. They are supposed to be able to take a Grizz down. Doubt if they would return after that!

Well I never did anything about the Vultures other than start using my wood stove. I guess they don't like smoke, thank God Wink yeah right Have not seen them for a while, but I am sure they will be back in the spring.

Dennis are you putting your Buffalo wing bones in the stove?

Cremating the chicken bones might have some effect.

Dennis,

Try a Daisy Red Rider of similar standard grade BB gun. You may have to walk the shots in by bracketing each shot but if you hit one of the vultars at this range, the BB will likely bounce off but leave a very painful sting. I use my daughter's Red Rider to dispatch unwanted dogs around the house. I don't want to injure anyone's dog so the BB gun safely gets their attention and sends a clear message. Just be careful not to shoot or aim anywhere near the hear or eyes.
