Myna Control Underway in Far North Queensland
Myna Control Underway in Far North Queensland By Ron Moon, Cairns Men’s Shed Indian Myna control across Far North Queensland has gone through a number of iterations to be now firmly established under the umbrella of the Men’s Sheds across the region. The current program was borne out of a confluence of serendipitous events involving the Cairns Men’s Shed, the Cairns Rotary Club, Warren Entsch the federal Member for Leichhardt, and the Canberra Indian Myna Action Group (CIMAG). Research by Chris Tidemann on myna trapping in tropical Cairns had earlier concluded that trapping was ineffective: while Cairns had an extremely high density of mynas – up to 750 per sq km – the tropics have lots of insects to feed on and mynas appeared to avoid the traps. Separate to that, Warren Entsch had noticed, each time he came to Parliament in Canberra, the progressive drop in myna numbers as a consequence of the trapping program by Canberra Indian Myna Action Group members. When Mr Entsch visited the Cairns Men’s Club in May 2011, he suggested they build a few myna traps for a bit of additional income. Within a few weeks Ron Moon of the Men’s Shed had come up with a trap design. As it so happened a month or so later, Bill Handke from CIMAG was holidaying in Cairns and was invited to speak about the Canberra community myna trapping program to the Cairns Rotary Club – attended by Mr Entsch. As a result of that presentation, the Cairns Rotary Club promptly established a myna control group, and arranged for the Men’s Shed to provide traps.

Verbatim republication is not permitted without the Society's permission. 1918 CYCLONE BY THE LATE A. MOFFAT WADDELL On the 10th March 1918, North Queensland was visited by a cyclone after a week of very hot weather. There were practically no residents at that time who had experienced such a happening. There was no radio communication with the outside world in those days. It was estimated that the cyclone was some seventy miles in width and went inland as far as Herberton. Babinda and Innisfail seemed to be right in the track of the wind and it was at those two places that the greatest damage was caused. About midnight on the Saturday night, the wind started and by Sunday morning, was blowing with gale force, paw-paw trees, shrubs and outhouses began to topple over. Heavy rain commenced to fall and about dark it seemed to ease somewhat, but that was only because the centre of the disturbance approached. By 8 p.m. the wind intensified, the thunder and lightning were terrific, and the buildings began to blow away and by 11 p.m. the severity had passed. Those people who had their houses blown away sought shelter wherever possible. One young woman sought shelter in a drain pipe which was flooded, another young woman sought shelter under the suction gas plant at Grogan Bros., Butcher Shop, another family sought shelter in the sanitary cart after the wheels were tied to a post.
