I don't want to harm them just want them to leave.

My uncle had similar issues until he inadvertently left the stick to adjust the outdoor blinds perched up high. He figured the small shape of the hook must look like a predator so he decided to leave it perched high up in the upper nook of the A frame and since then the birds have not come back.

Something like this. I think his is brass rather than plastic.

I have one of these for our pull downs blinds in our pergola, will give it a go.

Il be keen to know if this works, if so down to hardware store to grab one and hang in the carport

I was playing tennis years ago when a seagull fell out of the sky and landed dead on the court near me. Gave me quite a fright.

Had you played a chip shot?

No, don't think I've ever managed a birdie, but I was trying to serve an ace.

As a golfer I recently managed to hit a birdie. On closer inspection, it was a duck.

Looking closely at the many ducks on the local golf course,some are missing one foot,just have a stub for a leg with the foot missing.
