    Barriers and Scare Tactics

    Contain refuse in trash cans or bins for the most effective barrier between hungry crows and your garbage. If enclosing your garbage bags in a bird-proof container is not an option, consider a few alternative methods to stop crows. Place a tarp, netting or wire mesh over the garbage bags so the crows cannot land on the bags to tear at them. Scaring the birds with recordings of distressed crows, bright electric lights, pressurized water jets and humanoid scarecrows are all effective crow repellent options. Hunting and trapping crows is an extreme option; however, the law protecting these birds varies from state to state. No poisons or chemical repellents are manufactured specifically for crow extermination.
