That will teach you Myna bird...

A feel good moment for anyone who's got a Myna bird problem.

The missus hung up a tonne of firey chillies to dry in the sun today and a Myna bird decided to have a go at them... You've never seen such a panicked bird in your life after he stuck into one :lol:

Death by chilli!

Works for pest of your veggies too apparently.

Spray on some strong chilli water and it does the job, so I read...

Now we just need crop dusters spraying farms and neighbourhoods with chili water to solve the Myna bird problem.

That wouldn't cause any other problems, right?

I'm with Bourt. If I could not get carpet-bombed with chili that would be great.
