Put the area you live in fella somebody on here might have a call bird ?

Make a rough nest in the trap, stick an egg or two in it, one of them cracked open or add some white bread, you'll soon catch one of your own.

The problem is as soon as you remove magpies from the area others quickly take their place,so you never really solve the problem.

It would work of course, if all area's were trapped. Unfortunately, and obviously, this isn't possible.

The way we looked at it was that if you can shoot and / or trap the corvids after they have established their territories and paired up, there won't be any newcomers until after the breeding season. And by that time the game birds should have got their first brood off.

That does make sense.
