There are lots of birds around my house and they enjoy the
buffet-style meals the radiator gives them!  My plastic grill got
destroyed in a wreak, so they have easy access to all the insect
delicacies!  My radiator has been picked dry!  A high-power water
sprayer would probably do the trick too, but I'm sure birds would be
sad to see such fine food being washed away.
