I retract my suggestion - It sounds like you don't need Mr. Schwarzenegger after all, especially when you have your own home grown "Terminator"!
 
Feral Canada and Greylag Geese are considered a problem in some places in southern Norway, but I hope news of Ricki's "shocking" electric mat does not reach Scandinavia - It could be misused for the eradication of all (park) wildfowl "suspected" of carrying H5N1.

100 Common Mynahs on your property! Sounds like a job for my secret weapon: the "Frikasee 'em Fast Super Electric Mat".
 
This is a high voltage netting style mat that you throw on the ground and sprinkle liberally with the sort of garbage items that the Common Mynahs can't resist. As soon as the target bird lands on it, you throw the switch and there's nothing left but little smouldering charcoal Mynah bird shapes. They wont even know what hit 'em.
 
Importantly, you don't even have to clean anything up as the next puff of wind just blows the ash away, all ready for the next "smart ones".
