Getting Ducks To Go Away

RE: Getting Ducks To Go Away By octoberbabye. (Guest Post) The string seems to be working well. I see them looking at it and then turning away. I have started to plant bushes along the string and set out potted plants. Sometimes we can see God's hands in the small things we need.

I think that next I will try the string. I just planted two bushes and will eventually use bushes as a deterant. These are wild ducks and they come under the fence from the mobile home park next door. Thanks to all for your suggestions.

Once they get out of the habit of coming there you can dispose of what is left of the balls. Gets rid of other critters and bugs as well!

Nothing does it like one of the duck's natural enemies. Of course I don't want any ducks hurt, just the sight of the dog would do it. Save that duck poop for your flower bushes!

One of his "neighbors" put a string (tied to stick in the ground)around their lot and it worked to keep them out. They will not go past the string. Dont know if this will work for ducks, but worth a try. Good Luck!

There's an organic product made from grape skins that repels geese - maybe ducks, too. Maybe that would work, or maybe the scent of a predator like a dog? Good luck!

However even 'wild' ducks can be very tame especially if fed.. so don't feed them, (though I expect you're not doing that anyway) Can you make some sort of wire netting barrier to stop them getting in? Or get a cat or a dog? I'm afraid I don't know of a duck 'repellemt' though someone else might. I sympathise. I once had 2 ducks that roamed free in the yard, and the mess was pretty bad.. cleaned it up each day, but back it came... Posted on 04/04/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse
