Default bird problem

I have this huge problem with a damn bird. Every morning when I go out to my truck I notice that birds, usually the same one are sitting on my mirror and crapping all over my door. I know its because it sees itself in my window because I have tints. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if so then what can I do to stop it. It really sucks driving around with huge amounts of bird crap all over my doors. Please help

Put a decal of an owl on your door no more bird trouble.

Agreed. I would just blow it away. Choice of gun is on you. I would get the angle right and use a rifle if you are out in the country. If not, get an accurate BB gun and hope for the best.

BB Guns are illegal here, but slingshots aren't. Load it with sand (kind of like buckshot), scare it off the truck and blast it with a load while it's in flight. Had a squirrel that liked to climb the stucco on the house and did that twice, that was enough for it. Shoo'd it off dozens of times and it kept coming back but hit it twice with sand was enough for it to move on to places unknown.

Get some seed and spread it next to someone else's ride or at least away from your truck each evening before you go in.
