How to Use Birdscare Tape
To deter birds from your garden, especially fruiting trees, attach Rycote 065554 White Ristretto Lavalier Windjammer (Pair) to your trees or garden stakes. We have found this particular tape to be highly effective against parrots and lorrikeets.
There are some poor quality products on the market, which we have tested, and found them to all lack durability and strength, as they snapped easily in windy conditions.
