hi, this is yolanda vanveen and in this sectionwe're going to talk about how to repel chickens. so chickens are grown domestically so peopleusually keep them in a cage. but a lot of times the chickens go wild and they get looseor you may live in the country where the chickens migrate from the neighbor's yard over to youryard and they do total devastation on your garden and they can cause a lot of damageto your yard too. so how do you repel the
how to keep snakes out of your yard mothballs, chickens how do you get rid of chickens? wellthere's really no way to actually totally get rid of them but you can, there's a fewtricks that you can use just to stop them from coming further in to your yard. and firstof all, just chasing them with a hose works really well. it'll make them mad and they'lltell all the other chickens not to come near
your house because they'll be chased witha hose. you don't want to ever hurt any animal but if you chase them with a hose it doeschase them away. saying that, as soon as you go back in the house they're going to comeor as soon as you leave they're going to come back. building a fence really works, so puttingnetting over the area because they're not going to get through that netting in to yourplants. that always works really well. but a trick that i found for most wild animalsespecially rabbits and chickens or any kinds of birds, is putting spices where they'rea problem. there's all types of spices that work really well. so if they're in your flowerbeds just sprinkle your flower beds with cinnamon or you can use garlic and pepper and saltworks really well. any kind of mixed spice
that has paprika or cayenne pepper works reallywell. curry powder works really well too. so the chickens might go in to that area butit'll burn their little feet and they don't like the smell. so they usually will avoidand area. a lot of times too if you can put some lemon juice or cut up lemons in to littlepieces and put them in that area, they might try to eat it but it's really sour. and sothey don't like the smell too of a lot of the limes or lemons and that seems to helptoo. just regular pepper works really well too. that stops a lot of the chickens fromcoming in to that area. you can't really repel the chickens from a large area because generallythey will keep trying and trying to come back.
but just by maybe using automatic sprinklersor hosing them when they come near you, or
putting spices anywhere that they're travelingin to, that will stop them from coming any closer. so chickens are not our enemies, soyou just set boundaries for them and you can find that you can live together naturally.
