Pigeon repellers

Repelling pigeons with ultrasound

Ultrasounds are mechanical vibrations with a frequency higher than those that can be perceived by the ear. Each species has its own degree of sound perception, in Khz. Ultrasound for pigeons works because it generates a disturbance in the bird's developed auditory system. The bird has to be close to the ultrasound wave. The emitted waves cause the pigeons or other birds to flee. The ultrasound frequency range is specific to birds and does not affect humans or pets (dogs or cats). When using the ultrasound should be placed as close as possible to the pigeon and there should be NO obstacles such as walls, branches, fences because ultrasound does not pass through walls. It is also not convenient to use it if there is food, powerful noises that distort the ultrasound. If there are nests, you will have to remove it.

Types of ultrasonic devices to repel pigeons:

With motion sensor: for large birds. With continuous cycle: for small birds or birds a little far from the device. Mixed: they combine the 2 characteristics: with motion sensor and cyclic. They are weather resistant. They are battery operated and can be recharged with the solar battery and can be used plugged in.

Scare away pigeons with sounds

We understand by sound to scare away pigeons those devices that emit sounds of gunshots or sounds of predators or threatened birds. The sound of gunshots scares the birds and they flee. The noise of predators or threatening species drives birds away because they associate it with imminent danger. It is necessary to take into account the distance at which the birds are located, since the shorter the distance between the device and the pigeon, the greater the effectiveness of the device.

Types of sound devices to scare away pigeons:

Motion sensor sounds: for short distances (balconies and terraces). Continuous sounds: for long distances such as cannons or loudspeakers (large crops) Before purchasing a sound device to scare away you must pay attention to the type of power supply: batteries powered by solar battery, power adapter, camping gas canister or car battery.

Pigeon repellents

Bird repellents are odors that prevent birds from accessing a specific enclosure or place. We must create an olfactory barrier to prevent them from landing in specific areas.

Different formats of pigeon repellents:

Liquid: spray based on natural extracts and essences to repel birds that are sprayed on railings, walls or terraces to prevent perching or nesting. Diffuser sachets in granules: hung on fruit trees or urban buildings Gel: long-lasting viscous material that prevents pigeons from perching on a railing or balcony. In cities, bird repellents do NOT work when the area is dirty or has pheromone odors or bird droppings. It is recommended to disinfect and then rinse the area with plenty of water before applying the repellent for it to be effective. In the field it does NOT work when the fruit has already ripened. It should be applied about 15 days before the fruit ripens.

Dynamic devices to scare away pigeons

Pigeons and all birds are frightened by the movement of foreign objects. Scarecrow kite: a 6 or 9 meter telescopic mast that can be seen from a distance. It simulates the flight of a hawk and circles around its own axis with a wingspan of 8 meters. Designed for crops, boats, rooftops, etc. Aeolus scarecrow: an arm with a rotating shaft and a blade to scare away pigeons: There are models to be placed in orchards or on television antennas.

Reflective objects to scare away pigeons

Reflective visual objects are products that scare birds away by sight: 100-meter reflective tapes, reflective discs or spirals emit flashes with the reflection of the sun, and keep pigeons away from orchards or balconies. The above-mentioned visual elements are NOT effective if they are not changed from time to time or if there are obstacles that make it difficult to see the object at a long distance (trees blocking the product or facades).

Predator figurines to scare away pigeons

The figures are sculptures in the shape of ravens, hawks, owls or birds of prey, which are the natural predators of pigeons. They are effective in terraces or gardens and also for fruit trees about to mature. They have to be moved and changed regularly to prevent them from becoming accustomed to the figure.

Anti-pigeon nets and spikes

Anti-pigeon nets or anti-pigeon nets are effective because they prevent the entry of birds into specific enclosures. They are made of material resistant to pigeon claws and are the most effective system to prevent the entry of birds into any enclosure or building. The anti-bird nets are 5*5 m or 10*10 m but can be customized to the required size. The anti-bird spikes made of aluminum or plastic spikes prevent pigeons from perching and nesting. The installation is very simple since we only need to apply silicone on the base. Each base is ½ meter long to facilitate installation. The nets and spikes are NOT effective if we do not cover the whole area since we are moving them to another place. We have installers of anti-pigeon nets and spikes all over Spain who can give you a free estimate for the installation of nets or spikes on facades and terraces. Contact with us.

Pigeon catching cages

Catching cages are intended for bird control companies. If you are a private individual, before buying a cage to capture pigeons, consider where you are going to release them or how you are going to incinerate them. Do you have any further questions? Simply contact us and we will solve any doubt related to your particular case.
