Canada geese get the Flock Off message
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?
