Bird scarers

Summary

The use of bird scarers is not illegal, and they are essential for farmers to help protect certain crops. If a farmer or landowner is using a bird scarer, they must make sure that they are not causing a Statutory Nuisance to others and that the scarers are used in accordance with the Code of Practice produced by the National Farmers Union (NFU).
