Friends of mine have this problem, they get in and chew out the pithe. What I did was make up a hawk suspended with 40lb fishing line, attached at the head, tail and one wing to stop it rotating. try and suspend it at least 20ft above ground level , when the wind blows it will move up and down like a hawk hovering.
