<human>:  What would be a good way to get rid of strays in the area?
<bot>: I would strongly recommend not taking any action to get rid of strays yourself. Instead, contact your local animal welfare agency to get assistance. Putting out food and water to encourage them to remain in your area should be sufficient. It’s best to avoid direct contact to avoid risk of disease or injury. If you do see injured strays, contact your local animal control agency for assistance.
