Big Problems
Some cities have such problems with birds such as pigeons that they employ people for cleanup of the bird droppings around the city. Some birds such as pigeons are not native to the United States but they continue to become a hazard to buildings, structures and even health. Some droppings are not only a health hazard and can carry diseases but also they are also corrosive to structures. The bacteria, fungal agents and ectoparasites found in pigeon droppings are responsible for a host of serious diseases, including histoplasmosis, encephalitis, salmonella, meningitis, toxoplasmosis and more.
Basic Pest Control Products
One of the most popular products that come to mind first is bird netting. Netting comes in different sizes to fit the area you are looking to keep the birds out of. It comes in different strengths and is inexpensive to buy. You can also use bird netting keeping other little animals out of your gardens and plants.

Gazing Globe | Patio Furniture
Bird Tables Gazing Globes were all the rage with the Victorians, which they used to beautify their rose and herb gardens. Our non-tarnishing stainless steel Gazing Globes offer the reflective quality of glass without the potential for birds to be harmed.

Also, that is not a "Spooky eyes" but a "Terror-Eyes Bird Repeller" from Bird-X. Something different to try.
Protecting Your Boat from Pest Birds
Strung around the boat, the reflective surfaces will have bird avoiding the area because they cannot see. Boat owners are no stranger to pest birds, and over the years many have come up with their own deterrent.
To enhance the effectiveness of the Super Bird Expeller where large pigeon flocks are present, use one or two visual scare devices. Irri-Tape and Prowler Owls work best with the sonic repellers.
