- proksoup 10y agoOwl statues. Decorative, or to scare away other birds and rodents.

Google's answer is pretty reasonable in this case: Google: https://www.google.com/search?q=where+can+I+get+the+thing+that+goes+up+and+down+in+the+back+of+a+toilet https://www.google.com/search?q=where+can+I+get+the+thing+th... => First result [Parts of a Toilet | The Family Handyman] Compare to Bing, which misses the point: Bing: http://www.bing.com/search?q=where%20can%20I%20get%20the%20thing%20that%20goes%20up%20and%20down%20in%20the%20back%20of%20a%20toilet http://www.bing.com/search?q=where%20can%20I%20get%20the%20t... => First result [Signs Of A Sewer Drain Clog]
