Canada geese get the Flock Off message

Reporter Community News

Canada geese using a Kāpiti lake as a toilet have been told to Flock Off.
More than 200 geese have been calling Awatea Lake home, depositing up to 400 kilograms a day of poo into the lake.
A lack of action from the Kāpiti Coast District Council has infuriated some locals, resulting in a petition calling on the council to get rid of the birds.
The council recently responded by announcing it was trialing a bird repellent, Flock Off, as a short-term option, as it looks for a permanent solution.
Do you think Flock Off will work?

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
