Vulture effigies don't work in Florida

Good citizens of New Paltz, take note: they've tried hanging dead vultures around to scare the live ones away in Florida, too, and the results were "mixed." From the Miami Herald:

The first few days they had it up there, oooh, it was eerie around here," recalled Hyde, who lost a windshield seal on her Ford Explorer to vultures. "The birds and crows were flying around them like crazy."

Sounds like this particulare pest-remediation method might just rile 'em up. So, does anyone know whether the New Paltz effigies work?
