color=#0000ff>VCR tapes work as well. Shiny on one side. If you take a length
with a few twists in it and tie it between two posts, it creates an
interesting effect. Late in the season, nothing seems to work. I've got
bangers, cannons, crackers, whistlers, squawkers, bird distress calls, flash
tape, Scary Eye balloons, flash pyramids, bird scaring kites and most recently
netting.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><STRONG><FONT face="Arial Narrow" size=4> Over
past three or four years I have using a similar product....but at a much
cheaper cost than moiré tape....I go to the local "Dollar Store" in the early
spring and purchase those things that little children put on the
handle grips of their bicycles that flap in the wind....they are
reflective and sparkly...usually blue/silver metallic or red/silver
metallic. You can purchase several dozen of these gizmos that are
already cut to size with seven or eight strands together with a small handle
to tie your string onto then on the catch wires or posts.......they last
several years and keep the deer and birds away.....that's what works for
me.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
