Anyone who has visited the recycling depot recently knows how bad the wasp situation at BIRD is this year.
Bowen Waste Services has tried using wasp traps but the wasps find the dregs of pop, juice and beer way more enticing than anything on offer in a trap.
Whilst you get to dash in, drop your recycling in the bins, and make for the door, the volunteers who are running the bottle sorting area are stuck there with the wasps for most of the day. PLEASE think of them, and rinse out your bottles and cans before bringing them to BIRD.
