My Swimming pool edge is covered in Bird <deleted> every day. 

Any ideas how to stop these birds?

I don't like cats, nor do my dogs.

Learn to like cats OR birds.

 

All that crap gets in the water, I’m not swimming at your place.

little tiny corks?????

Avitrol

Change your pool water to Salt. 

Bird Diapers

Start keeping falcons.

Thanks, I'll check it out. 

train your dog to chase them ... or the enclosure idea, as would be nice to have shade also.

There are some ultrasonic devices available on Lazada but I do not know how effective they are... see here.

Thanks JD! 

I've seen many methods over the years.... Keep Avitol away from the pool and other animals it's a dangerous toxin that causes epileptic symptoms!! If some went in the pool I don't think it would harm you but why risk it?  8 or 9 brightly coloured kids rubber snakes works well, but the birds are clever so keep moving the snakes around every now and then.  I've also seen a 4 or 5 times lifestyle carved and painted owl placed fairly high up near the pool or on the house, this works well.  If the pool is not overflow type try lowering the water level so they can't reach it.  Also they will drink salt water as well!  Try to keep the poop out of the water if you have an overflow pool slow the water over the overflow so the poop does it get into the tank and stays on the top of the overflow then use wet and dry vacuum before you swim.  Poop depletes the free chlorine in you pool so it's not effective, so test and add chlorine regularly or get a chlorination machine from me.  I also saw a large silhouette of a black cat cut out of aluminium that worked well.  When you're around your pool buy some small banger type fireworks that bang when you throw them, they soon get the message.  If the poop is dry vacuum regularly.  I hope this helps

I wonder of the birds attract larger creatures?

 

We've had a few Monitor Lizards, last week one that was 1.5 m long! Maybe let him stay in the pool! 

Lazada has a range of stuff-- I brought Fake owl's from them hung in the trees around some apartments, seem to work fine--

or you can spike where they nest (land) very cheap

  ----72 baht each  worked for me

How lucky you are to have birds, we have the same I wont use the word problem because its not the birds eat the insects that eat all the plants/grass.

I can put up with the bird poo no problem.

I put a little dog at the side, one with a spring neck and makes a noise when the wind blows, seems to have done the trick.
