How to solve your problem:

Read the list of errors emitted by Perl
Locate the variables which are listed. Perl helps here, as it gives line numbers.
Determine the minimum scope required for each variable. As an example, the scope for a loop index need not be more than the loop where it's used, and most variables in functions should have their scope limited to the function in which they're used.
Declare each variable with my, our, or local, as appropriate.
