Protecting tomato plants from birds
Your tomatoes are tasty and nutritious to many birds and insect pests. You get excited when your young plants have grown enough to have big, red tomatoes. Watch out for the big birds, especially pigeons.
Hungry birds attack them, ruining all the hard work you put into your plants.
Moreover, birds such as pigeons and starlings will not only eat your ripe tomatoes but also break down the stems and vines of the tomatoes to use the pieces in building their nests.
Other problems by birds on your tomatoes will include:
- Eat part or whole fruits
- Detaching the tomatoes from branches as a result of pecking
- Pecking holes and puncturing the skin
- Discoloring of the skin of the fruit
- Damaging or scratching the skin of your tomatoes
- Fungal and bacterial damage on tomato plants
There’s just nothing worse than watching your tomato fruits getting destroyed by birds when you could do something about it.
Insects and birds are most likely eating or squashing your delicious tomatoes. And birds are not easily frightened by scare tactics. This causes frustration as you watch all your hard work go to waste before harvesting.
Birds-damaged fruits are vulnerable to diseases, which reduce the fruits’ quality and storability by many gardeners. Some tomatoes become unfit for human consumption.
There is a simple solution to protecting your tomato plants from birds. Bird mesh deters birds from your tomato garden, vegetables, fruits, and other plants.
