Installed Products
The BirdGard Super Pro is an acoustic device for bird control for large areas up to 2.4 hectares. The device has four built-in amplifier and a 4way speaker box. This 4way speaker allows an optimal coverage of 360° without having to install/ pull numerous wires. All components are placed in a robust and weatherproof enclosure. The BirdGard device can be easily mounted on a post, fence or directly on the trees using the supplied mounting plate. The device is used in viticulture, fruit and vegetable farms, fish farming, industrial buildings, boats and much more. Operating principle The BirdGard Super Pro emits at irregular and freely adjustable intervals the fear, warning and panic cries of the bird species selected when purchasing the product. The built-in sound chip contains eight different fear and panic cries of birds in combination with raptor sounds. Hearing these cries triggers an escape instinct among the birds and they leave the area. To avoid habituation, only four voices should be active at the same time. For optimal bird control the voices must be changed every 5-4 days and the break times adjusted if necessary. The power supply is usually provided by a 12V car battery (not included) or by a suitable power supply unit (not included). The following settings can be adjusted individually: infinitely adjustable volume, manual selection of bird cries as well as an automatic start at sunrise and shutdown at sunset or a 24h mode.
