Well that’s something to complain about… Get rid of the birds and get the bugs back.
My neighbor killed a rat snake in the feed shed. A week later she had to throw out about 30 Lbs. feed for the rat mess in it, We don’t have that problem now because a racer moved in our shed with feed in it. We may loose an egg or 2 a week but it’s better than having rats. Even the squirrels don’t go in there anymore.
My snakes keep the mice down. My cats keep the snake numbers under control. The birds are above it all. (Except Herman the Mad Cardinal. For going on four months, he’s been making a circuit of the car rear view mirrors, house windows, and a gazing ball, attacking all those “other male cardinals.” I’m pretty sure he’s been so busy at it that he hasn’t found a mate. He’s sitting on my passenger side mirror right now, mad a hell, thinking he’s the unluckiest guy in the world to be plagued by all those rivals. Ironically, there’s not another real male cardinal anywhere around. Cleaning bird spit off the mirrors is getting old. I’m restoring an old Airstream. I figure when I get it polished to a mirror finish, Herman will just have a heart attack.)

Yeah, Burl…… Why don’t you try going to Home Depot and asking where they keep the bird spray.

The bugs are gone because the birds are there!

Burl’s shirt reminds me of assign my dad used to have over his desk: “Don’t start vast plans with half-vast ideas.”
