Zep - Please let us know if you can see a reduction in cormorants from the reflective tape.
Will do
Fayette....I placed quite a bit of the reflective tape out last Sunday and was there at the property like 3-4 hours afterwards and it appeared to be working, but after I left to go back home...well I dont know? An additional roll of tape arrived yesterday and I will add more this weekend. Even if it's 50% effective that's a start.
The shooting them...which I know no one is advocating beause it's illegal....seems over-rated....especially if you dont live on site....ok lets pretend it's legal to shoot them....lets say you kill 1, 2, 3, 4, of them on a weekend....wont others the next day that were miles away and not aware of the shooting just land and start eating the fish again? If it were legal...shooting them may provide some satisfaction...but I doubt it would actually be very effective with so many birds in and out of the area.
