Go to the nearest garden center or farm type supply store and purchase a plastic OWL. place the owl near you pool deck on a post or railing. some even come with a line for hanging in a tree or line. Birds won't be come to any pool parties you have when "AL the OWL is on duty! change Al's perching view and move him once and a while to keep the bird guessing if Al is real or not. good luck! P.S. cant find in Al in stores, check garden suppliers on line.

Get a plastic owl. I had the same problem with pigeons, and put a plastic owl on my roof peak, no more problem. Try your local hardware store. Mine has a motion sensor so the eyes light up and it hoots when a bird flies by. No need to go that extravagant, I just thought it was cool.

you can tie a thin string (or a few) across your deck (over head). For some reason birds stay away. They do that at resorts to get birds to syat away from the pool an pool deck area.

Purchase a chicken suit at the local party store and where it when your on your deck. The smaller birds will stay away from larger birds they will think you are a predator.

Put finger nail polish remover in a bowl. Soak your fingers for about 20 to 30 minutes. The nails should pull off easily without damage to your nail.

Lay a few aluminum pie pans on your deck bottom side uppermost.The birds will find new territory in a hurry.

Dito on the owl idea. Other birds stay far away from owls, so they never get close enough to tell if it is real or not.

Get a bird feeder, and when they come to eat, open the garage door where you have placed the 100 adopted pound cats that you haven't fed in a week. ;)
