Crows Eating Tomatoes

10 years ago

The crows are eating my tomatoes as fast as they ripen. Does anyone have any suggestions as how to get rid of them?

My tomato plants are dying from all the rain. We just had 19 days of rain so they were drowning. Many leaves have turned yellow. I don't know if I can clean up all the leaves since I have around 70 plants. I would have plenty of tomatoes for my canning, etc. except now the crows are so numerous that I fear they will eat them faster than I can pick them.

I really need some useful advice!

Can't get rid of crows. But can rig protection above the plants -- bird net, etc.
