What Is Bird Repellent?

Bird repellent is a blanket term used to describe devices designed for deterring birds by startling, confusing or otherwise repeling them, typically employed in commercial settings by farmers to dissuade birds from consuming and defecating on recently planted arable crops. Numerous bird scarers are also readily available to the public direct to consumer, or by means of purchase from independent retailers.

Advantages of Bird Repellent

Safety
Bird repellent lasers have safety features that can turn the laser off when the laser beam is projected at a certain angle and prevent harm to humans and animals.

Cost-effective
Lasers are very cost-effective. A user can achieve up to 90% of bird reduction and get a return on investment within a year.

Increased laser range
The laser has a range of up to 2500 meters, which makes it safer and more accurate for airport bird controllers to aim at the desired target.

Ecological approach
The green laser beam that is projected towards the birds makes them perceive it as a threat and move on from the area without any damage to property or the birds.

No habituation
Some airports have used traditional bird control methods in the past. Birds become easily accustomed to such methods so the bird repelling effect is not significant. Airports have noticed that the laser repellent is a method that birds have not become habituated with.

Types of Bird Repellent

Visual Bird Deterrents
Visual deterrents are one of the oldest strategies out there. They are basically threatening objects mounted in specific places to scare birds away. Examples of visual deterrents are scarecrows and life-size models of natural predators like foxes, cats, and owls. Another variant uses shiny reflective objects like reflective tape or aluminum to scare the birds away.
Pros: These solutions are easy to get and install and are very affordable.
Cons: You have to give birds some credit here; they are pretty intelligent pests and become habituated to these kinds of visual deterrents very fast. Furthermore, plastics and other materials used in some visual deterrents can litter the landscape once they deteriorate.

Physical Barriers (Bird Spikes and Netting)
Bird spikes and netting are barriers you can put up over open and semi-open areas to prevent birds from entering them.
Bird netting helps provide a barrier that blocks the flight path of the birds while providing a thin cross-section area that they can’t land on. A common material used in constructing the netting is fish wire.
Pros: Netting is an effective bird control solution
Cons: When it’s time to scale up to large areas, netting becomes too expensive to install and maintain.

Sonic and Ultrasonic Bird Repellents
You can also use sound to get rid of pest birds. There are two main acoustic bird repellents: sonic and ultrasonic. Sonic bird repellents use the sound of natural predators like eagles or foxes to scare away the birds when they get too close. Some models can use explosions from a propane cannon to achieve the same effect.
Ultrasonic bird repellents use sound too, but instead of predator noises, they play sound at a high frequency. Humans cannot hear this sound, but animals like birds can. This irritates and drives the birds away.
Pros: Are easy to install and maintain;
Cons: Due to noise pollution, they are not neighbor-friendly and are even forbidden by law in some areas. Furthermore, birds can become accustomed to them when they realize that the threat is not real.

Biological Agents
Biological agents are substances that irritate and inconvenience birds, causing them to flee from the area. Common examples include gel, sticky glue, or baking soda that you can spread on surfaces where birds perch to irritate their feet.
Some people also use chemical sprays that irritate the birds’ taste, touch, and smell senses. These are not very ideal, as they can also contaminate the surrounding areas.
Pros: Biological agents are easy to retrieve and apply;
Cons: Active ingredients in some biological bird control measures can affect the surrounding environment, often causing adverse effects. Furthermore, they need to be reapplied multiple times and get washed away by rain.

Application of Bird Repellent

Protect Commercial and Industrial Assets
Industrial sites, factories, landfill… they are all a magnet for birds such as seagulls and pigeons which seek out a nesting space that is both safe and offers potential food. Their nests can cause fire hazards, clog up roof gutters, spread disease and their droppings can cause damage to buildings and equipment.

Optimise Solar Panel Efficiency
Great for the commercial solar power sector, bird repellent technology can help you improve solar payback times by removing the issue of bird droppings. It may surprise you to know that a build-up of dirt and debris will block all sun light and increase solar cell payback time from between three to five years.

Argiculture
Consumption of seed, trampling of crops, bird droppings – starlings and pigeons can be a real nuisance to the farmer. These fields often attract huge flocks of birds and can cost the agricultural industry millions of pounds in lost crops and animal feed. With bird repellent control, you can reduce the losses caused by nuisance birds.

Aviation
Fields adjacent to runways are a haven for birds. There is little human presence making them ideal for nesting birds to breed and find food. While that isn’t so much the problem, it certainly is when bird meets aircraft and can be a real nightmare for aircraft causing damage, leading to downtime and putting crew and passengers at risk.

And there’s more...
As well as those industries mentioned above, birds are also an issue for other sectors across the UK such as:

Dairy farms
Waste management companies
Coastal properties
Buildings
Warehouses and distribution centres
Poultry farms
Oil rigs

Things to Consider Before Using a Bird Repellent

When considering your top bird repellents to use in your garden, it is imperative to put the welfare of our feathered friends first and ensure that they do not get harmed. Therefore, the bird repellents used should never pose a danger of catching, injuring, or killing the bird.

Additionally, when using deterrents or fencing, it is important to allow breeding birds access to active nests and avoid obstructions. Special care should be taken near nests bird species. Any disturbance in the immediate vicinity of the nest is strictly prohibited by law. Additionally, before initiating bird control at a particular location, it is important to determine whether alternative habitats to which birds can migrate are available.

Failure to provide viable alternatives may result in ineffective deterrence and excessive stress on birds. By following these guidelines, you can develop effective and gentle bird management strategies that ensure the welfare of the birds whilst also keeping them out of your garden.

How Effective Are Bird Repellents?

Bird repellents produce a large visible point of light that can be used to scare away problem birds.

Many bird species associate this light with predator-like behavior and flee when exposed to the visible light pattern. The most effective bird repellents produce a wide beam, as opposed to a narrow beam in the conventional laser pointers. Green beams generally seem to produce the best results.

Bird repellents have a number of control applications but are especially useful for moving birds from their roosts. Lasers are particularly useful in situations where it is not possible to use other more invasive audio deterrents, such as disturbing birds from roosts in and around warehouses, barns, and close to airport terminals.

An effective technique is to repeatedly treat roosting sites at dawn and at dusk, this gives birds time to find alternative roosts outside your control area. Diurnal birds will typically not flee a roost area in full dark, no matter how much pressure you put them under so it is important to begin laser treatment as soon as they return back to their roost.

The most effective technique is to use the beam of light to slowly approach the roosting site, remember that birds perceive the laser light as a predator-like presence and so you must leave them an escape path. For indoor use, use the laser beam to “herd” birds towards and exit.

Power restrictions do somewhat limit laser applications as these lasers will not produce a very visible light during bright daylight. However, we’ve found these tools to be especially effective at chasing birds from roosts sites, which is typically done in low-light situations. In addition, high-power lasers can pose safety hazards, particularly in aviation environments.

How Does Bird Repellent Work?

Install the system

The Bird repellent system comes with a laser projector and mounting brackets. The projector is mounted in an elevated position, such as on a roof or a pole, and aimed at the areas where birds are roosting or nesting.

Turn on the System

Once the system is installed, turn on the laser projector. The projector emits a green laser beam that sweeps back and forth across the area being targeted.

Laser Beam Effect

The laser beam is designed to create a visual disturbance for birds, making them uncomfortable and causing them to leave the area. The laser Beam is harmless to birds and humans, and it does not harm the environment.

Set Up Timing and Duration

The Bird repellent System can be set up to run on a timer, so it turns on and off at certain times of the day or night. This helps to conserve energy and reduces the need for manual control.

Continued Maintenance

To ensure the Bird repellent system remains effective, regular maintenance is required. This includes cleaning the projector lens and checking for any damage to the system.

How to Use Bird Repellent Effectively

Variation is key: Regularly change the output, duration, and/or location of the ultrasonic device to achieve maximum effectiveness.
Install Early: Try to install your device before “bird season” arrives. It is easier to keep birds away if they haven’t already become comfortable in the area.
Use products together: Using multiple bird control methods together will yield better results than either solution will provide by itself. For example, combining an ultrasonic device with bird spikes will be more effective than if you only install bird spikes.
Keep the area clean: Birds and other pests are attracted to areas with food or other birds of their species. Removing food and trash gives birds less of a reason to visit the area. Cleaning up bird droppings and other signs of bird habitation can also serve as a deterrent. When cleaning up bird droppings, please take proper safety precautions, as the droppings can diseases and parasites.

Is Laser Technology for Bird Repellent Dangerous for People?

Most bird laser deterrents use type 3B laser technology, which is potentially dangerous. Improper use of this type of laser can cause eye injuries and skin injuries in people.

A laser operator certificate is required before using a laser deterrent. Typically, this laser operator certificate is obtained after completing a free online course provided by the supplier and passing a knowledge assessment test. For more information, consult your supplier about purchase and usage requirements.

To use an automatic laser outdoors, it is necessary to request authorization for its installation, as well as to cordon off the area with graphic signs warning of the risks of entering the area when a type 3B laser is in operation.

Tips for an Optimal Maintenance of Your Laser Bird Repellents

1. Storing your bird repellent devices for the winter

It is crucial to decide if you will keep your automated bird repellent devices working or store them away during the winter months.
The first step is to switch OFF the laser bird repellent before performing any maintenance.
Tips: The laser bird repellent is designed to withstand outdoor environments. However, it is recommended to store the system away if it is going to be exposed to temperatures above 65°C (149°F) or below -20°C (-4°F).
Tricks: If your system will not be used for an extended period of time, it is essential to store it away in a dry, well-ventilated environment. Ensure that it is not subject to humidity over 60%. It’s recommended to store the device in its flight case.

2. Keeping your system up during the winter months

Tips: Make sure you check the temperature at your location to determine whether it is safe to keep the bird repellent devices up during the winter season. If you keep them up, make sure to complete regular maintenance.
Tricks: Depending on the bird species that amass at your location during the winter season (when daylight is reduced), you can decrease the system’s time frame and brightness.

3. Cleaning your system

Tips: Check your laser lens for dirt. Leaving the laser lens dirty may cause undesired reflections and reduced laser effectiveness.
Tricks: The laser bird repellent laser lens and housing can be cleaned with a wet non-abrasive cloth. Please do not use a high-pressure pump for cleaning as this may cause damage to the bird repellent devices.

4. Putting your system back up

Tips: When you decide to put your bird repellent devices back up, make sure to check if the time settings are still correct. The laser bird repellent won’t automatically adjust to daylight saving time. Also, make sure that the laser bird repellent cannot wobble or tilt in its position.
Tricks: If stability has been diminished, add more ballast to the frame or secure the system more firmly to the subsurface. Ensure the systems execute their patterns in the intended areas.
