I cannot believe the amount of money I wasted before I discovered that almost anything can be cleaned with either vinegar or bicarbonate of soda.

Trek i used some double strength vinegar straight out of the bottle and a hard deck brush and t work quite well, some of the thicker lays took a few goes .You will need a few bottles to clean a cat decks. Also i was surprised to see it clean my stainless rust with just a few strokes of the brush. The poop cleaner was to dear at $30 for a small bottle up here.

But going back to the source - Seagulls are nesting now,and very aggressive,plus any form of shelter at bow = nest - have buoy/warp elevated + Green Shed owl,but they have been making friends with him!

Installed x2 Bird Spiders,mounted on plastic pad ( birdcontrolaustralia.com.au )which work well,and store easily with 19mm irr.clamp . Have lasted 6 months ,and no corrosion,but spray with lanolin regularly . Will get one more,as better than flags/bunting .

+Plastic snakes -( bigger the better as take small ones as feed ! )- which also work deterring indian mynahs on the house ,if you move them around .
