yodudebc Champion Author Vancouver Posts:5,580 Points:541,875 Joined:Aug 2011	Message Posted: Jan 5, 2012 9:30:35 PM Ignore yodudebc Report Abuse It really will damage the paint, you know. The larger the bird, the more acid the guano. Seagulls have been known to dissolve small pen-knives in their gullets. My Dad knew this, and it amused him to no end to embed Alka-Seltzer tablets in bread balls and set them out for the gulls. Gulp. Then the bird would fly high in the air, but you knew just when the acid hit the seltzer. The bird would drop 10 or 15 feet, then recover, then drop, then recover... And the old man would laugh ha HAA ha HAA ha HAA hahahahaha. I didn't know whether to watch the bird or the old man; both were so funny! Just wash your car, okay?
