ghostrider Posted January 16, 2013 Report Posted January 16, 2013 my wife heard about this at work.Onions have been found to have properties that collect bacteria from its surroundings. There was a family which didn't catch a cold and they were asked the reason and the answer was an onion in every room, not peeled, and if you leave an onion in a freshly painted room it takes the smell out the room. The only downside is the danger from onions that have been sliced and left (even in a plastic bag) to be used at a later date, they can be highly poisonous because they gather up the bacteria. might just stick a couple hanging up in the youngbird loft...ybs Food for thought! atb stu
sapper756 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Posted January 16, 2013 I know a fancier who puts a half raw onion in his birds drinkers, and this guy has won a SNFC Open race.
greenlands Posted January 16, 2013 Report Posted January 16, 2013 I was contemplating hanging some sliced onions in the young bird loft this next season,read about the anti viral/bacterial properties a while ago.
PIGEON_MAN Posted January 16, 2013 Report Posted January 16, 2013 Also very good at keeping moths out the loft,just hang one up and leave it.
