General Introduction

Audio bird deterrents including the Bird Wailer, Bird Squawker, Zon Gun, Bird Guard, Cry of the Hawk and screech owls can be more successful in deterring birds when combined with visual deterrents and/or taste repellents.

TIMING, PERSISTENCE, ORGANIZATION and DIVERSITY are critical for using these products. Timing is critical as birds are more apt to leave a briefly occupied site rather than an established roost. Appoint one person to organize and implement a harassment campaign commencing one hour before sunset and/or dawn using a diverse product mix. Effecting a dramatic change to the roosting area will often persuade birds to disperse. The obvious tactics include elimination of a food source, shelter and water. Remove nesting materials, thin/trim trees. A wide array of bird scare products is available. However, no single product stands alone; a combination of bird deterrents must be used with repeated reinforcement as necessary.
