Today I was looking for the local indian grocery. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be one in my area, though there are plenty of korean and the occasional south-east asian market. I was looking for some nag champa but since I couldn't find an indian grocery I thought I'd try the closest vietnamese store. As I walked to the front door, I kept hearing this high pitched pulsing noise that just seemed to settle in the base of my ears (really annoying and a tiny bit painful). I looked around to discover this, which is apparently some sort of sonic bird repelling device. ugh ugh ugh. I can't seriously believe their claim that this is harmless to birds. Its obvious to me that its only harmless because they flee, much like I was forced to.
I can only hope to god that this kind of thing doesn't get popular..

I buy my nag champa online in bulk, but you can usually find it in new age stores and head shops.
The bird repellent sounds annoying. Did you see any dogs running away, as well? They have those sorts of devices that are supposed to repel bugs and roaches, but I'm doubtful that dogs can't hear it.

there were zero animals near that demonic 'bird repeller'. and I did finally put in a purchase through amazon for nag champa yesterday. Though I just looked at the link you sent. Don't you find it interesting that they sell incense and beanies?
