Misting … Pest birds get Misty and Fly Away

Let's face it, in some areas they are great inside or outside it is quite difficult to deter Pest birds. Here misting systems birds come into play foggers are ideal for use in garages to large industrial and commercial, factories, aircraft hangars, of course, landfills, parking lots, or similar open spaces.

Misting Systems Bird can be used effectively to prevent pest birds to wander dangerously close to flight paths. After the forced landing a recent U.S. Airways Airbus in the Hudson River after apparent bird strike off the two engines, misting systems have caught the interest handlers and airport security organizations flights across the country.

The good thing about these bird hazing systems is that they are both humane and effective. They work by releasing an ultra-fine mist in the air that pest birds can not see and did not like. Fog is usually a chemical called methyl anthranilate, a grape extract that occurs naturally in the Concord grape. Recognized by the FDA as a harmless drug, anthranilate Methyl is a food grade material, often used to flavor grape soda and candy. The extract has been widely used for decades to deter safely a variety of pests, including birds, sparrows, pigeons, starlings, crows, blackbirds and geese. But it is safe for people, animals, plants and birds.

Several misting systems have a central console that you can attach a number of satellite misting "drop" of units. In some systems, the control console can be placed as far as one mile units drop.

And remember not examine the effects of prevailing winds to ensure that the fog is transported in the right direction. Some mist systems work under rain, but they will be ineffective as a deterrent. And misting units will not work below 32 degrees Fahrenheit because the methyl anthranilate freeze.

The advanced misting systems allow you to program the drops for a time of day, or go all day and night. You can also control how long the spray. The cycle time of each drop must be based on the type of installation you want protect. Specific guidelines for use in warehouses, garages, loading docks, processing plants for food, land Golf vary depending on the type of birds and the level of bird activity. Better systems will individually adjustable nozzles on each unit to ensure direct you the chemical deterrent exactly where you want it to go.
