Terrible animal cruelty

damn !!! she should be punished for the animal cruelty.

 

Revolting. Email sent.

 

I am not one to suport PETA or nut crazed animal rights groups but come on. Who would be that freaking cruel to birds. That person should get a huge freaking fine and jail time for that.

That video makes me sick. (and I'm the kind who can stand seeing video of a guy being killed).

 

Humans :-(

Murderous greedy motherfckers in that factory or whatever it is.


Also, Disneyland has "bird-killing" wires, that decapitate any birds that come below a certain height.

 

That is just terrible...

 

Horrible!

 

i hate birds because they shit on you, but that is just horrible

 

well the problem is defining what a pest is. Sure birds are birds, but this same stuff happens to mice and rats who even break their own necks trying to get off sheets like this.

 

That's never happened to me...

Due to 56k and my supervisor's nosiness at work, I won't be able to see the video - therefore I won't be making any emails. I have a question, though: Why would someone do something like this?

 

This is why humans suck so much.

"I am truly disturbed and frightened by your company's use of glue traps as a way of killing birds. This is a despicable example of what humans will do to exterminate what are deemed "pests." I hope you have discontinued using this practice and have found a more human way to deal with such problems."

Edit: Didn't include anything about public apology (which would have been BS and token anyway)/ASCPA, I just wanted to let them know that I thought it was awful.

 

Washington State is not the Midwest.

@Ein

Not the grammer police here or anything, but it should have said "humane way to deal" not human. They are doing the human thing, trying to remove an unwanted pest.

After saying that, I do not think that's right either. It's a shame they can't think of a better way to deal with the situation. Glue traps are a horrid thing for rodents and now birds. I always hated when the pest folks would use them in our storage at my old job.

There are non lethal ways in dealing with birds. Plastic spike strips that can be mounted to objects and netting is also used to keep them out. Unfortunately it's cheaper for their customer to pay the pest company to do this, than it is for them to clean the mess the birds make. I am only saying this because of the business I work in these issues come up once in a while. No, I do not do pest control, our company sells janitorial supplies.

 

I know, it was a typo that I noticed after writing the email. Human kind of works, depending on what definition of it you're using, but I meant humane. Oh well. Cry.

 

whats the difference between a big fat rat and a bird?

 

One carries shitloads of diseases and is actually known to infest houses/living areas and get into foodstuffs, while one just poops on things and *gasp* at its very worst will make nests under the eaves of your house.

Of course, one is also considered to be an invasive species similar to a cockroach...

 

Rec'd a response:

"This issue is from last year. Glue boards have been prohibited from use in bird control. Thank you for your comments."

Hopefully they stopped.

 

i'm not the police either but it's GRAMMAR and not GRAMMER

and the video about the birds...that just makes me sick

 

So much for spell checking. As I said before, I am under educated.

 

I wonder who cleans the traps, and what they do with the bodies??
Btw, I feel bad if one of our mouse traps go off, because mice are so small...I've seen nature do worse things than glue traps to birds, though. My dog caught and gutted a bird alive with his teeth before. No telling how many Opossums and Raccoons I had to throw over the fence because of my dog...
