Feral chicken nuisances are among the top sources of complaints within the City and County of Honolulu.<\/p>
The Department of Customer Services is addressing nuisance issues created by feral chickens in our community by helping to bring new attention, needed resources and a strong policy voice to the persistent concern.<\/p>
Feral chickens create nuisances by foraging in residential areas, crowing at inconvenient hours, posing health concerns with their waste and agitating household pets. More roaming chickens mean more nuisances. Oahu residents can help manage the nuisance by not feeding feral chickens and reducing the feral chicken population in their community.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t The responsibility for responding to feral chicken problems varies with the location of the animals and the property ownership.<\/p> Whom to call to deal with feral chicken and poultry nuisances depends on the ownership of the property.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Contact Department of Customer Services to report issues on city property such as parks, building areas and other local government property: Each state department is responsible for the cleanliness of its own properties and to abate any nuisances. \u2022 Private property owners on Oahu stand to benefit from the latest efforts to help control a growing feral chicken population in the City and County of Honolulu.<\/p> \u2022 Sandwich Isle Pest Solutions has been contracted to provide a cage and disposal service to help humanely rid private properties of feral chickens.<\/p> \u2022 The city will fund a portion of the cost to private-property owners to catch and dispose of feral chickens that are creating nuisances in communities across Oahu.<\/p> \u2022 Private property owners of all types will work directly with Sandwich Isle Pest Solutions.<\/p> \u2022 For more information on the service, visit www.sandwichisle.com<\/a><\/strong>, or call (808) 456-7716<\/strong>.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
