what shape to spray on bales

[jacobl741]

what shape do people find works best to deter birds from pecking wrapped round bales?

My neighbour just dips a brush in a pot and gives it a shake over each bale giving a splattering of different sized white dots

I dont bother marking mine at all. He insists it works, l find l dont have a problem either.

What about some humming tape? Gamekeepers use on pheasant pens what about a bale stack?

Our neighbour draws peoples heads on his,he insists that the totally bald ones are no good, they need a bit of hair up each side and none in the middle

I use different colour wraps one white and one black so the bales are stripey

think pink and black worked better a few years ago when I had a few rolls of that stuff

Baled a field last year, as dark fell the man was going like a blue arsed fly painting crosses on his. I asked him if he was expecting vampires....
