What is making birds INSIST on building nests in my IH 1586? Back in the spring I found a fresh nest on top of the valve cover. Mud was still wet. Later I found another fresh nest on top of the right battery under the cab floor. Destroyed that one, but less than 24 hours later they built another nest and had laid 2 eggs in it. The 2 eggs became 4, and the 4 eggs became 4 little mutant aliens.
FINALLY, today, the nest is empty, so I tore it out and destroyed it. EVICTED!
Now, how to keep them from coming back? I've read that robins will lay a second brood once the first has left the nest.
They are interested in the tractor, not the location. They find it if I move it. They rebuild if I destroy. It's like waterfront property in hurricane territory.
