Bird – Nesting in Fern
Q: I have a fern that hangs on my front porch. There is a bird that builds a nest in it over and over. Is there anything, other than getting rid of my fern, that I can do stop this?
A: There is no chemical repellent. You might try filling the interior of the fern with sweetgum balls to make it a less comfortable nesting place.
