FAQs
What are the dimensions of each crow decoy?
Each crow decoy measures 36cm in length, 13cm in width, and 23cm in height (LxWxH).
How much does each decoy weigh?
Each crow decoy weighs approximately 200g.
Can I use these decoys to scare away any type of bird?
The decoys are primarily effective against crows, pigeons, and starlings. Their effectiveness against other bird species may vary.
How do I make the decoy move naturally?
You can use the tailpiece ground peg slot. Attaching a thin string and allowing wind to move it, or placing it where there is a slight breeze, will create a pecking or swaying motion.
What is included in the pack?
The pack includes two crow decoys and ground pegs for each.
How should I clean the decoy?
Use a damp cloth to wipe down the decoy. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Can these be used in a garden setting?
Yes, they are effective for deterring garden pests like pigeons and other nuisance birds.
Troubleshooting
Decoy does not stand upright.
Ensure the ground peg is fully inserted into firm soil. If using the tailpiece slot, check that the connection point is secure.
Birds are not attracted or are wary of the decoy.
Adjust the decoy's position to face the wind for natural movement. Try using multiple decoys. Ensure the decoy is clean and has a realistic appearance. Consider local bird behavior and habits.
Decoy material appears faded.
Clean the decoy with a damp cloth. While designed for outdoor use, prolonged extreme sun exposure can cause fading. Store indoors when not in use.
