A New York couple’s beautiful Florida just became overrun with dozens of vultures, and the birds are vomiting and defecating everywhere.

Siobhan Casimano and her husband only just bought the three-bedroom, $702,000 home at Ibis Golf and Country Club back in April. Four months later, they said that they can’t even go visit the home because a neighbor has been feeding the wildlife.

Siobhan, who described the smell of the birds as “like a thousand rotting corpses,” said she is afraid for the safety of her 2 year-old daughter and tells any visitors to park far away so the vultures can’t peck at their cars. While the Casimanos said they had no idea of this bird problem when they bought the home, neighbor Cheryl Katz says she’s been dealing with it for months.

“Imagine 20 vultures trapped, biting each other — and they can bite through bones,” she said. “They would bang against my windows running away from a bird that was attacking them. Blood was everywhere. It was a vile, vicious, traumatic event. And it was Memorial Day, so no company I called would come out to help me.”

Cheryl added that an elderly woman is feeding the vultures, putting out four 20-pound bags of dog food a couple of times a week.

“A feeding event is nauseating,” she said. “And when the birds are done they sit on my roof, on my trees. My pool guy’s afraid to come here.”

Cheryl explained that she suffers from chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and that she has to be careful when she goes outside because her immune system is vulnerable to infection.

“These birds bring a lot of bacteria, so I could not go outside,” she said. “I had to have someone power-wash twice before I could go out there.”

Cheryl went on to say that she wanted to sell her house, but dropped the idea when a lawyer told her she would have to disclose the bird problem.

Neighborhood association president Gordon Holness said that there is not much that officials can do because as migratory birds, vultures are protected by federal law.

“We called Fish and Wildlife in to give the lady a warning. We also issued a violation notice,” he said.

Cheryl said that some have suggested scaring the vultures with fireworks or balloons, but that doesn’t work for long. She even tried putting out fake owls with moving heads and blinking lights.

“The vultures chewed the owls apart,” she said. “They ripped the heads off.”
