Gull, Lesser Black-backed Larus fuscus
Gull, Herring Larus argentatus
These license conditions include the requirement that the user must be satisfied that legal (including non-lethal) methods of resolving the problem are ineffective or impracticable.
So just shooting them because they P. you off is a no no.

i wouldnt eat them, theyre like rats with wings, they will eat any old carp, in fact i'd rather eat a rat than a gull.

i was about to say the same thing to you pal
Seagull- a bit like greasy chicken. Fried in batter, lovely.
Seagulls can't be protected. None of my pellets hit any form of sheilding at all.
dunno why you'd waste the ammo?
buy a pot of sodium bicarb, ask strangers for chips, the proceed to make holes in the chips and fill the holes with sodium bicarb, feed that to a seagull and its a ticking timebomb! nothign funnier than watching a seagull nick a loaded chip, fly off then suddenly die in mid air cause its stomach exploded xD
spent many a fun time doing that lol
