Chris & others
What's the appropriate way to minimise spreading of
diseases via bird baths and other water provisions? I empty our birdbath and
leave it dry in the sun for a day every week or so (birdbath is mostly used by
larger birds - currawongs, magpies, crimson rosellas, red wattle birds, crested
pigeons etc), and empy and clean a water bowl that the CRs use all the time also
about once every couple of weeks. (The small birds tend to use the pond,
which is also used by RWs & CRs - it's filtered and has fish, lots of plants
and snails & other little critters.)
thanks
Barbara
