This is why I won't use balloons at open houses. There are better options... Like pinwheels!
Every year, balloons end up in ponds, lakes, and rivers across the U.S., and wildlife pay the price. Ducks, geese, swans, and even seabirds can get tangled in the strings around their necks, wings, or legs.
One careless balloon can strangle, trap, or starve an animal. What seems like harmless fun can become a deadly trap.
Skip the balloons. Protect our wildlife. 🦆💔
