PRESS RELEASE: Pesticides are OUT. ‘Green’ Pest Control is IN.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Bird-X changes the pest control industry with ‘green’, humane, eco-friendly solutions.

CHICAGO, IL—Bird-X, Inc., a leader in producing humane pest and bird repellent products since 1964, is raising the bar even higher for the pest control industry, offering ‘green’ solutions for every pest and bird problem. Research shows that, in the long-term, teaching pests to stay away is more effective than killing pests. Plus, avoiding dangerous chemical pesticides and cruel traps is much better for the reputation of the user. It looks like ‘Kill-Trap-Poison’ is no longer the only industry philosophy.

The Risks of Using Pesticides and Traps:

  • Exposure to chemical pesticides can result in severe illness and even death
  • Chemical pesticides are especially risky when used around children and pets
  • Chemical pesticides can compromise the quality/safety of items stored on the premises
  • Chemical pesticides pose risks to wildlife and can cause ecological damages
  • Pests become resistant to chemical pesticides over time, requiring increased usage
  • Killing pests can actually result in population growth (having more food available per pest attracts pests from other areas and increases breeding rates)
  • Poisoned pests often crawl into small spaces to die, leaving awful smells in unreachable areas
  • Traps leave animal carcasses—or worse, injured and dying animals—on property
  • Allegations of poisonings or animal cruelty are a public relations nightmare
  • Poisons and traps do nothing to keep pests away…it’s a never-ending battle

For the past few decades, the public has been demanding safer products and ‘green’ alternatives in EVERY industry. Bird-X responded by developing pest and bird control solutions that are humane, eco-friendly and extremely effective. These products protect the users’ property while protecting the environment and its inhabitants as well.

‘Green’ Bird Control

Bird-X offers solutions for every bird problem, every area, and every budget. Exclusion bird netting is designed to protect large areas like warehouse ceilings, rafters, vineyards, and bridges. Bird spikes are ideal for protecting surfaces like rooftops, ledges, and beams. Bird Proof Gel is an almost invisible solution, ideal for high-profile surfaces like window sills, signs, or statues.

Bird-X also offers bird control products that attack the senses, using the birds’ instinctual fear of predators to teach them to stay away for good. Visual scares like 3-D predator replicas are affordable options for large open areas. The Bird Blazer is the world’s first indoor laser bird repellent device. Plus, Bird-X carries an extensive line of sonic (audible) devices that use bird distress calls and predator sounds to deter birds, as well as ultrasonic (silent to humans) devices that emit frequencies to keep pest birds away.

‘Green’ Animal Control

Nature’s Defense All-Purpose Animal Repellent is a wonderful, 100% organic, non-toxic, ‘green’ product that is perfect for homeowners and facility managers. Scientifically tested and proven effective, Nature’s Defense repellent granules create an irritant scent barrier to keep pest animals away from property (deters deer, elk, rabbits, squirrels, mice, rats, moles, chipmunks, gophers, beavers, possums, etc.).

PRESS RELEASE: BirdXPeller Remote Controlled Drone

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

BirdXPeller Remote Controlled Drone takes flight.

Bird-X introduces remote controlled model aircraft as advanced bird control method.

 

CHICAGO, IL, March 4, 2011—Bird-X, Inc., a leader in producing humane pest and bird repellent products since 1964, introduces the BirdXPeller Remote Controlled Drone.  This NEW PATENTED technology keeps pest bird intruders away from golf courses, agricultural property and vineyards—even challenging environments such as airports. The BirdXPeller ‘drone’ system is a remote-controlled model aircraft that swoops down to scare and chase away pest birds, emitting natural sounds of hawk cries and bird distress calls as it buzzes the target pests in threatening maneuvers.

 

The BirdXPeller Remote Controlled Drone has been proven highly effective in scaring birds off—leaving them very reluctant to return to areas where they have been subjected to such terrifying attacks. Studies have shown that the best way to control birds humanely is to leverage their instinctive fears and threat-avoidance for behavior modification.

 

The Remote Controlled Drone uses the expertise of Dan Metz, model aircraft flyer, as well as Dr. Phil ‘Dr. Goose’ Whitford, a biologist with a lifelong interest in Canada geese—to create an aerial attack that combines the recorded alarm and alert calls from wild Canada geese and other specific species such as seagulls, blackbirds and starlings.

 

Recently, Dan Metz used the drone to rid the La Quinta Civic Center in California of unwanted ducks. The campus park was becoming infested with ducks, and the creatures were leaving messy droppings on walkways and feathers on the grass—they were even digging up the turf with their beaks. The BirdXPeller Remote Controlled Drone provided a safe, natural way to quickly reduce the number of ducks on the property.

 

View a video of the BirdXPeller Remote Controlled Drone in action at the busy regional Nashville airport: http://vimeo.com/14365129. This exciting new technology will provide Airport Wildlife Control with a new weapon for protecting aircraft from pest bird incursions and the severe risk of actual bird strikes.
