In our garage on this farm we are invaded by wrens and
swallows roosting in the rafters after dark. the garage has
4 parking spaces in a row so it is expensive to provide
doors just to keep out birds. Short of bluetacking an
endless row of drawing pins to where they sit I don't know
what else to try. Any suggestions pls.

wrens & swallows eat well over thier weight in insects every
day, especially mosquitoes. are you *sure* you want to get rid
of them?
several places sell anti-bird strips of pins, which are meant
to prevent pigeon roosting, but might work on smaller birds.

might have more suggestions. i have no idea how reputable they
are, but it looks reasonable.
