Outdoor Catering’s Issue With Feeding Wasps And Insects

Aug 27 2023

Arnold Sciberras, the Exterminator, showed one of the issues the outdoor catering industry is currently facing as Hymenoptera feed on sugars in soft drink machines.

Hymenoptera is a large taxonomical order which comprises sawflies, wasps, bees and ants. The video shows all manner of wasp and bee invading soft drink machines to feed on sugars.

‘It’s basically impossible to function this way’, wrote the exterminator. Those who are facing such issues are encouraged to contact professionals to be able to deal with such a situation and keep business running.

Last November, a group of youth and influencers visited Ghanaian hospitals and schools set up by local Maltese to help those combatting serious diseases in such countries.

Today, a fund-raising marathon will be broadcasted on local TV stations, so that more money can be raised to help and give hope to those who need it most.

Among those who made the journey were MaltaDaily’s very own Keane Cutajar and Amy Borg, accompanied by Daniel Umanah, Megan May Caruana, Kevin Paul Calleja and Victor Abela.

Greater Flamingo Spotted At Salina Nature Reserve

Aug 27 2023

Birdlife Malta, who manage the Salina Nature Reserve, shared a video of the adult Greater flamingo migration as the flock spent some days at the reserve.

The flamingo has now left Salina and continued on its migration, Birdlife Malta explained. However, they provided those lucky individuals who were at the reserve some really good views as well as excellent photo and video opportunities.

‘At this time of the year it is not unusual to see flamingos around the coast, also in small flocks. Although the bird observed at Salina was an adult, sometimes the juvenile birds in these flocks get separated from the migrating flocks and end up on beaches.’

‘Persons noting such birds are encouraged to notify BirdLife Malta on 79255697 and the Environmental Protection Unit (EPU) of the Malta Police Force on 119 so that the birds are protected and assisted if necessary.’
