Damn mynahs are back. For those of you with open backyards, and don't have a maid, keep an eye out for the mynahs. They'll come into your kitchen if unattended, and fly into the house even. It happened to us last year, around this time... one flew into the house and when we tried to chase it out, proceeded to offer diarrhoeic poop EVERYWHERE in our living room and kitchen. It took us a whole day just to clorox the place (bird poop = bird flu). And it came back to our ledge again.
The birds nest at Holland Peak and eat the fruits off trees in between our two estates. Contacted NEA regarding this and they said they'd get Holland Peak to prune the trees. Of course that never happened.
So please beware of the mynahs. I spotted one at our condensors perched and pooping, daring me to do anything.
And yes, went to bird shops to see if they have traps to capture the mynahs, but they said the birds are very smart and hard to catch. The only solution - look up your place tight, or put up nettings to prevent them from coming in. Since the latter is illegal according to our condo rules, we're really stuck. Using reflective materials such as CDs, windmills, etc do not help :(
I complained about this to management but there's been no response whatsoever regarding this at all. Typical. I'm sure management thinks we're specifically targetted by the birds, and noone else has this problem. Can't be the case because I can see the amount of diarrhoeic stains on the white ledges of the backyards of Blk C (looking down).
If anyone else has this problem, please put a comment here.
