All the restaurants, in Simon\u2019s Town Main Road, put their organic waste in a bucket with a lid. And it gets taken out of Simon\u2019s Town, from Glencairn all the way to Miller\u2019s Point.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo there\u2019s none of that crazy attractant to town (for the baboons) on the Main Road anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As there were no baboon-proof bins at the time they come up with a solution of their own.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOut of desperation because we had no baboon-proof bins I drilled and made rope bins, over 700 bins, and Aileen came up with this idea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Aileen Turner, a resident and retired intensive care nurse, says they were looking at finding solutions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy best friend Angelique, who has since tragically passed away, we both retired as intensive care nurses and were looking at solutions on Google for fixing bins.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe came across a video of these straps they use in Canada for the bears and we thought well, if they are good enough for the bears then they are good enough for the baboons.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe rope at the time was good enough but after time it slackened or it got stolen, so we came up with this. The first round of straps were orange and unfortunately, it was not weather proof, so they were failing and the baboons were giving it only one tug, after about six months, and they would be in (the bin). So I went back to the drawing board and I started researching the webbing and I found this type that they use in the yachting industry, it is exposed to all weather and water and to date it has been brilliant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She adds that she does the bin-proof clips \u201cwherever\u201d it is needed.<\/p>\n<p>For the cost of R150, Turner transforms a city bin baboon-proof with the added strap that keeps the bin closed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI go and buy the stuff in bulk and because the demand is so high, I pay someone to cut all the straps up. Everything gets burned and sealed so that it does not break, the holes get burned with a smoldering iron and then I attach all the bolts and everything.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe keep hearing about the new amazing bins that are coming out, but they don\u2019t seem to materialise. They (the City) do seem to have the old-style bins that have a plastic yellow on the side with a steel cable that goes over the top of the bin. They work in the short term.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pasinisi adds after the baboon proof bins the next step was waste management.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBaboons used to come down to the Main Road in Simon\u2019s Town about two years ago.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was a male baboon that arrived and they went over the dockyard one night and the navy throws away food, not necessarily because it is waste, the baboons got there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSeeing that frenetic behaviour that comes from baboons finding food in a dustbin, it is completely different behaviour to when a baboon is foraging in the wild and baboons just don\u2019t leave the area.<\/p>\n<p>Out of desperation to get the service providers to do something we tried to remedy the solution. And it kind of brought this Ubuntu feeling, you benefit from it and you see the benefit. It is about community. So the first thing was the bins, trying to keep it closed and then the wet waste was an observation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pasinisi says out of sheer exhaustion from trying to stop the baboons from being run over in the road at night and picking up the mess when they leave, she went to restaurants to ask whether she could have their wet waste collected.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDue to exhaustion, I went into restaurants on the Main Road and asked if I gave them buckets with lids would they be prepared to take all organic waste and not allow it in the dustbin, to keep it in the bucket and I will arrange the collection of it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt started with the Sweetest Thing and she bought her own bins. Lighthouse and Harbour View and a few of them followed. And the first thing they said was for the first time in years there was no stench.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat eradicated the baboons carrying on until late at night, they were like drug addicts if they found a drop of Coca-Cola. The minute wet waste has been removed a baboon just can\u2019t stand a boring place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The initiative that began in May last year also benefited the pig farmers in the area.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow almost everyone is doing it and the pig farmers are happy because they are not having to buy extra food for their pigs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe restaurants love the pig farmers, the pig farmers love the restaurants and it has inspired a whole Ubuntu in the town, helping each other and it is so lovely.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-africa\">South-Africa<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
