Myna Bird Control Project; Phase 10 Report

Abstract

Myna birds are now found at high population around Samoa. They were at sight everywhere but seem more frequent around people's compounds and personal properties as well. Upon completion of the 9th poison baiting operation, the team conducted its 10th phase of baiting operation in Savaii for two weeks. This work marked as the second control work to be done in the big island. The operation teams were divided into two sets of teams allocated on the east and the western side of Savaii. This will ensure the whole island could be covered during two weeks of the operation with the ease of access for baiting throughout certain stations from one area to the other.
