Bye-bye birdies: Containers with the special gel have been placed along the ledges of Block 755 in Choa Chu Kang North 5. — The Straits Times / Asia News Network

The herb-based product from Japan is being tested in Bukit Batok and Choa Chu Kang by the authorities. Along a path in Bukit Batok Avenue 1, containers of the gel have been placed above five lamp posts, which are common roosting places for birds because of their broad and flat tops.
