Does this stuff work? Also, would shiny ribbon (which looks = pretty similar) from the $ store also work? =20 I would buy some of the $ store stuff and try hanging some strips from = the top of the window outside, to flutter in the breeze. Or maybe twist = them and attach at both top and bottom of the window. I am planning to attach some of this stuff around our highbush = blueberries when they ripen, in hopes of keeping the birds from = decimating our crop; so I would really appreciate knowing if anyone else = has had success with this technique.
