So, they decided to move it to the rolled up awning. I have a remote and kept moving it in and out to scare them away, but they always come back. Today (day 4) I pulled it out of the cover and rolled the awning completely out hoping to discourage them, but they are still hanging around. In fact one was walking around on the roof of my truck then I found the other one inside the cover I shoo'd out of there.
We plan on using it in the next week or two and don't want to drive off with a nest with eggs in it, plus they are crapping on the nose of it. What the heck can I do? These guys are persistent!
These deterrents are very common in my area for "flying rats" AKA pigeons: bird spike trim and/or netting. You can prolly find it at most any big box store like Lowe's, WM, or Home Depot.
