    Why don't you try putting some kind of bird seed on a shed or something to stop them from pecking on your roof. Its worth a try :)

    I don't think I would put out food for crows. They are loud and very anoying, and there is usually a lot of them. They are also very smart birds. The usual stuffed owls or hawks probably won't work, they will know right away that its not real. They hate foxes, will follow a fox screaming a warning to other wildlife. They seem to find a place that they like an return each day. They seem to have another place to roost at night. If you can't shoot them, the best thing is noise, bang the pots, set off fire works if you can. Unfortunately they will probably get use to what ever you do, then start ignoring you.
    One day maybe they will just go away.
