The city of Parsons hopes the use of a fire truck will help alleviate the problem of bird droppings on downtown sidewalks. According to a press release issued just before 5 p.m. Wednesday, the Parsons Fire Department will drive a truck downtown, sounding a large air horn and spraying water into the trees where dozens of birds have been roosting. The city staff planned to begin the process at 9 p.m. Wednesday, about roosting time, and repeat it for four or five days.
