That time of year is here when the gulls that nest on our office roof are laying/hatching, and they become very protective of their territory, and severely disrespectful of others', like the cars being coated every day in a big mess o' guano.
At another location I attend for work at this time of year (for roof inspection) they are complete bastids, and now recognise me and single me out for attention. Frequent bombing raids are now routine.
What I'd like to know is what I am within my rights to do about it.
Might I borrow an airgun (with permission for use and from landowner) and take 'em out that way?
Can I 'defend myself' with a slingshot or some such thing?
I don't think they're protected, but I'm unclear.
They're not a special rare breed or the like, just your common pesky scavenging gulls.
Cheers
