I'm not sure if there's something attracting them to our cart, or if there's something we can do to deter them from finding the steering wheel as an attractive landing space. Ideas?
I keep shiny bird deterrents on clips in my glove box and hang them from the cart roof when I park. Works great. You can also hang old CD from a string from your rearview mirror to scare them away if you wish. Just remember to remove them when you drive.
