The DC's had been begging and begging for a trampoline for ages, two weeks ago their uncle surprised them by buying an obnoxiously large one for our small garden. We set it up and the Dc's completely love it. My mobility is crap right now due to my disability so it would be great to have for them over the summer if we don't manage to get out and about that much. However, we live in a semi-rural area with pigeons the size of small dogs, and they have decided to make the top of the trampoline net the local pigeon hang out. They kindly sit with their bums sticking in to the trampoline and just sit there, all day, pooing all over it. There are four of the buggers on it right now. Earlier today one fell in and almost hurt itself trying to get back out.
What do I do? The kids will be bereft if I take it down before the summer holidays but it's going to get continuously covered in bird poo and I'm also worried it's going to hurt one of the birds who can't manage to fly back out.
Help please!
