How to Get Rid of Starlings on Cherries and Save Your Harvest from Birds.

Gardeners always dream of growing delicious cherries in their plots, but this crop often becomes a target for bird attacks, especially starlings. Are you interested in effective methods to protect the harvest of this berry from feathered pests?

Useful tips for gardeners have appeared on the Novyny.LIVE website.

Effective Methods to Combat Starlings on Cherries

One of the most reliable methods is to create physical barriers that prevent starlings from accessing the cherry harvest. Such barriers include:

• Netting on trees - install it when the cherries just begin to ripen and remove it after harvesting
• Frames and tunnels - create frames with supports and stretch netting
• Individual bags - use them on individual branches or clusters of berries

It's important to set these barriers up correctly to avoid contact between the netting and the cherries and to constantly check them for damage.

Folk Remedies

There are folk methods to scare birds away that are still relevant, such as:

• Old CDs - hang them on cherry branches, they will reflect sunlight and create a motion effect
• Foil or cans - use them to create noise and shine, which will scare starlings away
• Garden decorations - ribbons, balls, or dolls can also play a role in deterring birds from cherries
