How do you get rid of birds in gutters?

Great question-- Birds generally stay away from areas where there is an fake (or REAL) owl, but they also will NOT nest or even land around a fake rubber or wood snake. In fact a painted wiggly line will panic them. That's why jets have a wiggly or spiral line painted on their inlet hubs. You can also try various products from bird-x.com . They have decoys, spikes, sonic and ultra sonic sound machines that work really well.
