HUM LINE

[mikeduck]

Recent Readers letter suggested that all chandlers know about this. I have asked 5 and only one knew what I was talking about but did not know where to get it. Can anyone help with:-
a. what it is
b where to get it.
I just want to keep the birds(feathered) away from my boat in Poole Harbour.

Is it same thing as an aeolian harp?

Might be worth asking your local garden shop / centre - scaring birds off your brassicas can't be too different from scaring them off your boat. I've heard that the magnetic tape out of the inside of a music cassette has the same effect if you tension it in the wind.

I have ordered some and I hope it works as my boat is a magnet for s****hawks. John Hewitt.

Let us know whether it works please. Though if everyone on Itchenor reach starts using it, friday nights spent on the boat might not be so tranquil!
