I was looking forward to a nice lie in today as it was the first day in ages that I haven't had anything to do early in the day. Instead I was up at 7 listening to a female mallard getting gang raped on my roof. How do I discourage these bastards from performing their activities on my roof? Can you get duck repellent?

Can you get duck repellent? In the old days it was probably called a gun. Isn't there a duck version of Playbird the males can read and get their rocks off?

I have an air rifle but I think the marina probably has rules that would prevent me shooting stuff. Shame really as I do like bit of crispy duck.

I saw that thread title and thought, "Hmmm - that sounds like a weird fetish but I'll check it out just the same."
As far as warding off the copulating critters, what about one of those big, fake predatory birds? Or even a fake predatory animal? What eats ducks, besides us? If you could find some realistic looking blow-up critter that would probably be ideal.

I think the sound of a couple of lions on the roof of the boat would be a bit much first thing in the morning...

I think the sound of a couple of lions on the roof of the boat would be a bit much first thing in the morning... True, but crocodiles are pretty quiet. But then, I doubt a proper British duck would have much opportunity to run into lions or alligators, so they might not even recognize them as predators. I had a problem with pigeons nesting in my eaves. I glued a couple of plastic owls and plastic snakes to a couple places on the roof and the pigeons went away. I was thinking a plastic or blow up replica of whatever is a natural predator for ducks in that area would scare the ducks away from the roof. And tying a plastic toy to the roof seems more appealing than spraying coyote (or whatever) piss all over your boat to scare them away.

Interesting to read this.
We get some coot issues and obviously occasional angry swans but the ducks are generally not a problem.
