Need recommendation for bird poop cleaner!

[patrickerica]

For some reason, birds keep pooping on our boat cover, We tried an owl but that made no difference, can anyone recommend a product to get the caked on bird poop off the cover? My husband has spent way too many hours scrubbing and we're hoping there's a product that will make this easier.

Thanks,

Erica

All joking aside... Bird droppings are caustic, so a mild acid solution should help, something like lemon juice.

Don't know what kind of owl you used but they usually work......maybe a great horned owl would work ?

I bought a plastic own from Lowe's for about 6 bucks. We mounted it on VHF radio antenna. When the wind blows, the owl moves and makes a rattling sound. Not a drop of poop since, unless it is a high altitude bombing. I've always used Simple Green to remove any stains from the boat seats, top, or cover.

Good Luck!

We have an owl sitting on the fore seat never a poop from the birds. Before the owl there was a pile of it in one spot.

Funny, in our little marina (56 slips) there are about 20 owls mounted on boats, lights... all over the place. You would think that the birds would ulimately realize the 'owls' never move. Stupid birds.

Stupid birds.

"Owl" second that ! Nyuk nyuk nyuk.

I've read that owls are silent killers, i.e. their flight approach is silent and that's what wigs out the other..... " boyds ".

Why soytenly!.....nyuk nyuk nyuk.
