    Many years ago, during the pre-satellite day, I once has had a $10 air rifle to shoot and killed some magpies - But not anymore as everyday's life goes space-orient forseening the freedom of environment atmosphere provided. After dumped my old rifle away, then my future emerged bigger with growing roots of satellite dishes around us anywhere without asking the reason why !

    Walking out to the car today I looked up at my new c band dish and there I looked and saw maybe some bird poop on the dish. I'm not sure as there isn't that usual tinge of white in it and the dish is mounted too high to see clearly. Maybe it's bat poop I don't know. I will go on the roof when I get home from work and confirm tonight for you all. I thought this issue was confined to down south but it appears it's spreading.

    Chanceforlove just tie barbed wire or cable ties to the top of the dish and the lnb arm like others have suggested.

    Live with it Leroy like i did.

    Once or twice a year some water hosed on the dish did the job.

    Atleast your problem is after you mounted it.

    Mine was a large cocky, swooping me just as i was lifting and balancing the dish over my head while standing on the roof tiles.

    Bloody family was in stitches laughing, i almost dropped the dish and would have come down with it.

    Every time i see a flock of them screeching around the house i remember that time and wonder if their laughing at me.LOL

    Ill get that bird one day.

    It always amazes me , that when I try to do something that's real important like that, the inevitable sneeze, itchy nose etc comes along...I can see why you gotta laugh when you think about those birds....at least you can laugh at yourself, and that's good these days!

    I climbed up on that roof as soon as I got home. I felt it imprtant that I report back with my findings as soon as possible. I couldn't see a sign of anything; no bat poo,no bird poo, no possum poo! Hmmm this was baffling. I went back inside to ponder. The other half wanted me to go down to the shop. I reached for my wallet and sunglasses but wait. I realised they were dirty and these were the ones I was wearing this morning when looking up at the dish. Could I have been leading my self on a wild goose chase?? Hmmm I won't know now becasue I cleaned them. Stay tuned for the next exciting episode of bird poop on a dish. Dun Dun Dahhhhhh.

    Leroy (sorry for wasting forum banwidth )
