When Hazel and Rod Braithwaite start stringing up spooky fake cobwebs on the lawn two things invariably happen 91裸聊视频� people stop to thank them for the display while others remind them of wildlife hazards.

Each fall the BC SPCA reminds Halloween decorators that fake spiderwebs in bushes and trees can be scary for our feathered friends who get caught in the webbing.

It91裸聊视频檚 the reason Braithwaite, also a councillor for Greater Victoria91裸聊视频檚 District of Oak Bay, went in search of 91裸聊视频渂eef netting91裸聊视频� that provides a safe yet spooky alternative to cobwebs. Made of polyester and cotton blends, the material isn91裸聊视频檛 sticky and fibrous.

While the BC SPCA, asks folks to ditch the dangerous spiderwebs, it does have advice for anyone who finds a trapped bird. The animal welfare agency recommends gently separating or cutting the decor to free the bird. Place the animal in a well-ventilated box with a towel or padding on the bottom and bring it to a wildlife rehabilitator to check for injuries. Call 1-855-622-7722 for advice.
