Windscreen Wipers At Risk From Arial Winged Abuse.

People about the nation are facing a new insidious menace which threatens their very ability to see well on the road. It seems some brave avian have got people in an uproar over their daring day light raids on their vehicle’s wiper blade. These naughty raiders have seemingly evolved a taste for the sweet tang of rubber from wiper blade and will stop at nothing to satisfy their aberrant cravings. Nothing is sacred to these winged beasts even the sealing around doors and windows is fair game to this flock of heartless criminals. It’s not just drivers who are at risk, we have breaking news that even the rubber insulation in double glazing is a prime candidate for destruction. It seems some motorists have gained the upper hand by disguising their wiper blade up in plastic bin bags to anticipate the voracious bird flocks from devouring their precious rubber like a plague of swarming locusts. Residents have been warned to stay in doors until the worst is over and tranquillity once again returns to our streets and homes. Experts recommend covering all rubber wiper blade with towels to anticipate any would be vandals.

Motorists are reporting shelling out record amounts for new wiper blades as a result of a new spate of attacks and it looks like there is no end in sight. The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds or RSPB reminds angry motorists that killing the crows would be silly as crows are known to be practically indestructible. They go on to explain that this variety of wiper blades eating behaviour is relatively frequent for the birds and quite often crows will bite their own reflection in a wind screen causing more trouble. There have even been reports of knackered glass as a result of these botched attempts to subdue an imaginary opponent. Putting cling film over the wind screen is one method to circumvent the risks as this experiment is known to remove the reflection. In order to help their valuable wiper blades some motorists on one street have even considered using a state of the art scarecrow to scare off the assailants.

The birds are known to be extremely territorial and attempts to ward off silly love rivals very common in the animal kingdom. Even the admirable Peacock has been known to charge cars in the past and it seems these bird brains just don’t give up once they get a taste of nice rubber replacement wiper blades. One method to scare off birds for good is by utilising a hawk or other bird of prey these can be hired for precisely this reason and will scare off any naughty birds for good. A less dramatic way to protect your replacement wiper blades is too douse them in something which doesn’t taste very nice, vinegar is a good place to start but be forewarned some stuff can damage paint work and the rubber on the replacement wiper blades themselves. So as another days sets and another day dawns over this sweet and gentle land it seems people and birds are trapped once again in an epic struggle and steadily increasing quagmire of tit for tat reprisals for the rest of the foreseeable future.
