The government has adopted a number of measures to scare away crows - such as breaking their nest and giving out the sounds that the crows fear on the radio. But those measures do not work.

' Scientists say that crows are afraid of blue and they don't like moving things on trees. So we tie about 25 blue airships over the trees in the park , 'said Antanas Karalevicius, a city official.

Local people agree that the battle with crows is a must.

' Their cries are terrible and they pollute the environment. I think balloons will work better than guns, ' said Andrius Zimaitis, a city resident.
