Protecting Structures and Open Areas From Pest Birds

Agricultural Bird Control

avian technology offer new ways to defend farms

Birds can wreak havoc on crops and farm facilities if left unchecked. Wild flocks feed on fruit, vegetables and grain, and their droppings contaminate produce and water. Effective bird control solutions are essential to reduce crop losses and protect livelihoods.

By integrating lasers, nets, spikes and other humane deterrents, farmers can prevent bird damage and keep pests away without harming wildlife. The right strategy means healthier fields and higher yields ; safeguarding both crops and income.

Key advantages of automated bird lasers for farms:

  • Continuous operation: Works day and night (with battery/solar backup) so birds never return.

  • Silent & humane: The laser is a visual scare only ; there’s no noise or poison, and birds are simply driven away alive.

  • Wide coverage: Each unit protects up to 12;20 acres, ideal for fields, orchards or large barns.

  • Long term savings: Preventing contamination and damage cuts cleaning and repair costs, making lasers cost effective over time.

Farmers can choose hand held or fixed laser units. For example, the portable AgriLaser handheld lets a worker on foot or tractor scan roosting birds with a laser pointer. It quickly clears localised hotspots (e.g. flocks on crop edges or near hoppers) and is ideal for smaller plots.

Agricultural
Traditional Bird Deterrents

Bird netting, mesh, spikes, hawk kites, and bio-acoustic deterrents are effective, humane bird control methods that protect farms and open areas from pest birds.

  • Bird netting and mesh physically block access to crops, vents, and structures while allowing air and light through. They are long-lasting and low-maintenance.

  • Hawk kites mimic predators and scare birds away using motion and visual cues, making them ideal for wide open fields.

  • Bird control spikes prevent perching and nesting on ledges and structures by denying birds a stable landing surface.

  • Bio-acoustic deterrents play distress calls or predator sounds to create an environment birds instinctively avoid, without disturbing humans or animals.

Light conditions

A higher laser output power is recommended for use during bright light conditions.

Distance and Beam Angle

A higher laser output power balances out the loss of contrast due to spreading of the laser beam over a larger surface area.

Local environmental conditions (albedo)

A higher laser output power is recommended for use in an environment with light absorbing surfaces.

The AVIX Autonomic Mark II in More Detail

The AVIX Autonomic is a fully automated laser bird repellent that keeps birds away 24/7. Birds perceive the moving laser light as a physical threat and flee immediately when the beam passes by.

Benefits of our laser bird repellents

Effectual crop protection

The AVIX Autonomic Mark II protects your crop and revenue from birds effectively. Unlike exclusion nets, the laser deterrent is easy to install and maintain and does not cause any damage to the crop.

No habituation

Birds can easily get accustomed to visual and acoustic bird deterrents but they will not get used to the AVIX Autonomic Mark II. They will consider area covered by the laser unsafe and will not return.

Cost effective solution

The AVIX Autonomic Mark II is up to 40% cheaper to install and maintain compared to netting. One solar powered system covers approximately 20 acres meaning you can get on with the more important jobs.

Benefits of Modern Bird Control for Agriculture

Modern agricultural bird control combines traditional and advanced methods to be both cost effective and eco friendly. Nets and spikes immediately reduce pest bird activity, while lasers and acoustic devices cover larger areas continuously at a lower long-term cost. All techniques are non lethal and encourage birds to relocate in line with wildlife protection laws.

Once installed, these systems operate quietly, reducing droppings, preventing disease, and protecting equipment. Overall, investing in agricultural bird control safeguards crops, upholds farm reputation, and increases yields while respecting ethical and environmental standards.

Common Questions for Agricultural Bird Control

Farmers employ a range of tools. Traditional tactics include gas cannons, propane bird guns, scarecrows, reflective tape, and full netting. Modern farms often add technological bird deterrents: laser repellers, acoustic callers, and predator kites. Expert solutions also include installing bird proofing (nets, spikes, mesh), and even falconry patrols. The choice depends on scale: for example, vineyards may favour nets over entire vines, while open fields might use laser beams and kites for broad coverage.

Allotment holders can use many of the same ideas on a smaller scale. Lightweight netting (mesh covers) over vegetable patches or fruit trees is very effective. If the space is limited, install short spikes on sheds and cold frames to stop perching. Predator decoys like hawk kites or lifelike plastic owls give a visual fright. Reflective strips or CDs, along with battery powered ultrasonic callers, can add extra protection. In short, bird nets and mesh, small bird spikes, and visual scare tactics (kites, scarecrows, ribbons) are practical for allotments.

Not with our systems. Birds can habituate to fixed loud noises or stationary models, but our approach avoids that. Laser beams sweep unpredictably, spikes and nets are always present, and even kites can be moved occasionally.

Similarly, bio acoustic calls can be varied in patterns so birds don’t acclimatise. Changing up the methods (for example, combining lasers with nets) also prevents birds from adapting, ensuring long term effectiveness.

Yes. The lasers used are class II or IIIa devices at controlled power, and they are angled so that exposure to humans is minimal.

 For birds, the beam is simply a bright light ; it startles but does not injure. Like spotlights at dusk, the effect is similar to a bright cloud or sun reflection on feathers. As noted on the site, all these methods are “designed to deter birds without harm”.
