Hahah, I love birds now. I was buying a new vacuum at home depot today and I went to those self checkout piece of crap things. Like always, it kept giving me those damn errors, it took like 10 minutes to fix the damn thing. As I left as being fed up with the thing, a bird flies overhead and takes a crap right on the damn thing. Serves it right.

don't park under a tree, powerlines, etc where they can stand and sh*t

the chances should go down when there's nothing over the car...unless there is a hella accurate bird that likes your car...

Get a BB gun. I got fed up with the bird crap, so I got me a Daisy
BB gun that's CO2 powered!! BB's get boosted up to 450 ft/sec!!
Just make sure you pick up the dead birdies and trash them!!!
No more bird poop for you!!

Birds use cars as target practice. They actually have a brain and probably notice how **** we are about our cars, and take a crap on our cars to impress their fellow birds, and in turn watch from a distance as we pull out wet wipes and wipe the crap off the minute we see it.

Stupid geese at my old apartment complex did just that ... and they crapped in mid air too, no trees or anything. Get used to it ... birds are bored and evil .. and we become the targets.

top 8 ways to keep birds from turd bombing your car

1. Sell your car and walk, its great in keeping fit, but you may end up a target instead of your car !

2. Stand on top of your car with a trashbag stretched out. The rig up some binocular glasses. If you see anything coming your way. Catch it in the bag. Hope you have much free time !

3. ONe guy didnt like cats, but see if you can make your max a cat haven with several laying on your car all the time. The watery turds will pellet them instead.

4. Move from your south americian "heaven on earth - tropical paradise " to some ice frozen part of alaska. I think birds walk up there instead of fly! You'll be watching for patties instead. Penguin Patties !

5. Start sleeping in your car at night. Set an alarm clock and every hour move your car to a different location. This may or may not work, but your max is not a sitting duck, and the randomization may help.

6. Have your car painted in cameoflauge! It will probably be the only max with this paint scheme. As for as the birds, you might run more chance of them nesting on the car, rather than dumping on it.

7. Go out and try to find a toilet cheap at a garage sale. then put it out by your car, with a roll of toilet paper. Now im not sure if they can be trained, we had success with our family dog. Good Luck !

8. Purchase the "Steve Irwin" Peanut Butter & Cheese Packets. Place some of this stuff around some bird seeds. The birds in your area will feed but will end up constipated. Things should really slow down over your way. And your car should stay clean.

Not a bad idea, it just might be a little difficult trying to find a color that matches right.

For Real Now, I totally have to agree with the crapping on shinny stuck quote. My car gets nailed no matter where i am parked, Open road, under a tree, parking garage, or parking lot.

I want my own little slave to sit next to my car and just wash it off all the time, or sit next to my car with a really shinny suit on and get crapped all over.

Hey, that's just me.
