Does anyone have any ideas of how to scare away about 40 ravens that have decided to make their home in my gum trees?
Their incessant group calling is deafening.

I want a really loud noise to scare them away. I slapped a pair of thongs together and that worked for 20 minutes, but now they are back in another tree.

I'm in suburban Glen Waverley, so it has to be legal.

People around here chuck bread out on their lawn for them, which has really helped bump their numbers up in recent years. Then they come and soften it in our birdbaths, which is most annoying.
