Satcommlee Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Rat's getting into aircon units and chewing its wiring... not any more place a plastic snake next to the compressor.. Birds annoying you on window canopies.. not any more place a plastic snake on there.. Peace and quiet at last!!! I never would have believed how useful these things could be. Thought I'd share this..

johng Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Just remember to clean the dust off them every couple of weeks - months depending on locationor the critters will just ignore them.Sent from my ASUS_Z00LD using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonray Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I ran into a guy in Mukdahan who made plastic/rubber chickens (roosters) as training aids for cockfighting. Amazing Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy360 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 The key with plastic snakes is to move them around into different positions every few days. That will keep the pigeons and owls confused. I have two of them on my balcony where pigeons used to love to roost as well as on top of my air conditioner. I put a snake on the top of the AC unit and one near the railing of the balcony. I change their position every day or two and since doing that....no more pigeons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddotmark Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Can any one recommend a shop/store in Hua Hin where I could buy some of these fake snakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lantern Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I used to have magpies settling on my veranda rails right above where my little solar panel keeps my ride on mower battery charged. They always shit on the solar panel, until I placed a rubber snake on there. No more problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantomfiddler Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I bought some highly realistic rubber cobras due to a pigeon problem. They stood up and even a small breeze made them look alive, but on the 2nd day I looked out to the balcony and a pigeon was actually sitting (no misspelling jokes please) on one of the. A total failure ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see them lots of places, mine are nothing special and is not the one in the picture.. I found them in a toy stall set-up in a Korat Mall, there must be similar markets, stalls etc in Hua Hin - I'm sure now that you are looking you will come across one fairly soon.
