*We are having issues with bears in the community.

Some tips on how to keep the bears away.

· Don’t place your garbage outside unsecured

· Do not leave pet food, bird seed, and/or garbage outside.

· Do not leave food outside for any wildlife.

· Clean your barbeque grill after use and never dump the grease outside.

Eliminating the feeding source will help detract bears! Black bears will consume almost anything.

Please visit www.portal.state.pa.us for more information on the Pennsylvania Black Bear.
