GttngRid (Mciybe) 0f Londoný's Pigeons Fi'or nuiny years London's pi- geons and starlings have be-en niakinig a mess of famaus build- ings. The problemr is, how do you geV r-id of f locks of several hun- dred bîrds, quietly, effectively and witliout causing an army of bird lovera o nmarch a n Trafal- gar Square-? The Ministry ai Works has worried about thiis for hirty y e ars. Explosive-s, flash-ing lights, ýalarmn calis and spl-ikýy strips of meutai have been tried ta dislodge starlingsa nd pigeons, but with littie succesa. 'Recently however, a plastic jelly lias ooze-d un ta thie scene and is spreading alang àfflicted ledges alover the country. The hordes oai starlingaý that, se-ek a warm roost in city smoký1e are leaving and it ia causing quite a flutter among the improvised and uofiildoveectesý. The substance doesn't harm th3e- birds but giye-s a wbl sensa- tion underi their toes. In f act, they fe-el th&yý\ haven't a le-g to stand 0on, This off-puitting je-ny la called Scare-crow Strip and lias be-en dlevised aiter coniderable re- search by the country's leýading pest control organizatioDn. *It is not affected by%_heat, cald, rain or snuw and can absorb its oýwn ofgh a dirt without be- e-zhs neffecti vc. Ladders, hydraulic hýoists, de-c- orators raîa scaffolding and steeple-jacks have be-en use-d ta, spread thie jelly around. The mnain servýicing company, Ren- boie-i Laboratories LtId., w;hichi ,lso developed the repellent, hae- ve bouglit a rrerd fire engcine -with a lOOft. turnitable Iadder frùm whichi a man appii1es the jelly f rom a caulking gun.

In Kernt, farmers thought up the idea of making records of bird nuises, and piaying te-m back very loudly to frighten off birds that were filching their1 crops. IV didn'V frighten the birds, but residents are complaining be-1 cause of thie horrible noise! In Amierica, birds seem ta have a special aptitude for getting themnselves sucked inta air-condi- tioning intakes of large office blocks wiLlit isastrous conse- quenRees f o r. t h e circulation pumps. Falcons and muonkeys have beenl trained ta catch pigeons ini New York but the monke-ys soon becaine as big a nuisance as the birds., Bird-scarera range from whistling novelties andreov in~g beacons ta acetylene explod.- ers and expl3oding shotgun sheila.

Oveor te years, xnany divers have loat their lives to large groupera. Unlike sharks, group- ers are flot deterred by a mere burst 0f bàbbles from a diver's suit.
