Jerry,
See this link from Marvin Pritts, Cornell fruit
researcher:
http://www.fruit.cornell.edu/berry/production/pdfs/bbbirds.pdf
They rate options to netting.
I forget which NAFEX meeting, but I recall the fruit
researcher
wondering aloud why more homeowners and small-scale growers
were not
spraying sucrose as a bird deterrent. Readily
available and
inexpensive.
