Reduced gull numbers need a reason for anxiety. However, once lives in a smaller colonized city, I want to advance a choice of sophie pavelle’s (Trying to Eliminate Noise, Missing Point of Food Stoll – It’s People Pests, 8 June).
Urban Excretete Guano gulls toopiously. It consists of cars, buildings and streets of a steady, non-poisonous rain. As an important ingredient it ruins the paint of buildings and paints cars, guttering and ironwork, like rails. As a fertilizer generates growth of grasses on roofs and pavements, blocking the canal systems.
Consequently, an enormous, expensive amount of repainting, Woodwork Replacement, Guttering Replacement, Roofing Repairs, Pavement Cleaning, Car Washing and Car Respraying Must Occur – All of these, in their way, ultimately A high cost to local authorities.
Some cities, like ExmouthAvoid it by raising campaigns to avoid feeding gull. All that should happen is to restore habitats where gulls live – not a protection of their wandering and defiled presence in cities. Their legged legs have proved that they are not natural city residents, after all.
