ok, lets not take a risk and start shooting towards our cars.....lol

I say f@#k with those birds' minds. Simply modify the point that holds the mirror in place to fall off at just a few ounces. Okay, so the mirror gets a bit bunged up, but the moment is priceless! :happydance:

Actually, I should have recognized the obvious...simply glue a miniature owl atop of each mirror; larger owls for larger birds.

Answering the various questions:

- The car is black. The poop is white (except the berries).

- The birds are at my workplace.

- There are thousands of them, of various species. Kill one, two would take its place. They've got a routine. First, they go poop on my driver-side door. Then, they spend the rest of the day attacking our office windows in an attempt to fend off intruders that look just like them.

- It has been suggested that we add "keeping the boss's car clean" to the Administrative Assistant's job description before we hire her.

holy that made me laugh out loud for real i didnt see it coming

SoCal 370Z 05-19-2009 05:58 PM

I say beat them to the punch...dress up like a bird and sit on your mirror first! (Please leave out the poop part as you unseat the mirror.)

Throw McDonald's french fries about the parking lot. That'll kill 'em!

Can I interview the candidates for Administrative Assistant?

Okay 2 other ideas, some one mentioned mount a bigger bird there.

Put a big *** owl stuffed on top of your car with some sort of suction cup mount. Not only will the birds probably not come by but poeple will probably be afraid of the crazy guy who has the owl on top of his car lol.

The other idea is plain evil, poison bird food like Socal 370z said "McDonald's french fries", but something less obvious and nobody would ever know hehe

Indoor parking might solve the problem.:ugh2:

Does anyone have a solution for this probem? How do I keep the birds from "soiling" the side of my Z?

Too easy.

FlashBazbo 05-20-2009 01:37 PM

Easier still: Today, I tried folding the mirrors when I parked it. No bird droppings.

Time will tell whether it will work for the long term.
