Or are garden mirrors a fire hazard?

Seems such a strange thing to sell....

We're taught as kids not to leave mirrors/magnifying glasses etc outside near grass, yet every time I go for a mooch around the shops I see these 'garden mirrors', seems like a new trend, unless I've been blinkered till now.

Why would you put a mirror where it can start a fire?!

YABU- garden mirrors are fine
YANBU- it's dangerous

My ex-neighbour had one. She was constantly picking up dead/dying birds but didn't care enough to remove/move the mirror. I think this is more worrying than the very slight risk of fire.

That is so sad. Poor birds 😢
