What everyday habits will help to avoid a visit from the baboons?
- Store food in closed places where the baboons cannot see it.
- Feed your pets inside, and don’t leave their bowls in outdoor areas.
- Don’t leave food like bird seed out.
- If you have a garage, unpack your groceries inside and with the garage door closed.
- Put your rubbish out shortly before it’s collected, and always in a secured bin.
- Always use your baboon-proofing mechanisms on windows and doors.
- Lock your vehicle if it’s parked outside.
Using these tactics consistently will send a message to the baboons that they have no chance of gaining a reward from your property. They will learn not to waste their time and energy investigating or trying to access your home.
