Housemartins

Niall Brady asked 15 years ago

Hi GerryI have housemartins nesting under my eve this last few years and their droppings are destroying my flowers.Will placing a mirror or CD in the apex of the eve deter them from building by causing a reflection of themselves or have you any other methods to stop them building?The are also on my garage but the can stay there as I like them flying around but just not nesting on my house.

Many people would kill ot have house martins nesting on their house!

You might consider planting shrubs that would be less spoiled by droppings as it is usually just a small area of soiling.
