Gulls or seagulls are found all over the world. They will raid garbage dumps, ballparks, and fisheries for leftovers. They eat seeds, insects, earthworms, small rodents, reptiles and amphibians. They often choose to nest on flat roofs and in hard to reach places so they are not disturbed. Most gulls have white or grey plumage. Gulls and migratory game birds are protected under the Migratory Birds Convention Act. However, under the regulations, the Minister of the Environment and Parks may issue a permit to kill or scare away, on the airport property, migratory birds which are considered to be a danger to aircraft operating at that airport. Attempts are usually made to frighten the birds away from the airport. If this is unsuccessful the birds may be killed. lf guns are used to scare these birds away a permit must be obtained.
Problems Due to Seagulls
Gulls are aggressive scavengers because they brazenly move in and snatch food, scraps off table. They hover around benches, awnings and fixed umbrellas and dive in for a search of quick meal. They gather in huge flocks and leave pounds of droppings in their wake. Gull droppings also pose a health risk because after drying they can transmit respiratory diseases.
