Are Pest Birds Zeroing in on Your Orchard? Time for Bird Deterrents

Pest birds are coming to feast on your orchard. It's spring and birds are actively searching for food, leaving costly damage in their wake if you don't act now with effective pest bird deterrents. Pecked holes, rotting fruit, and compromised yields are common consequences. Early-ripening crops like cherries and almonds often suffer the most severe damage, especially if your orchard sits adjacent to wild brush areas where birds seek refuge. Fruit trees and vines are frequently targeted by robins, crowned sparrows, house finches, scrub jays, European starlings, crows, and yellow-billed magpies. The bird control experts at Bird B Gone offer proven, humane solutions to protect your harvest.

Bird Netting Blocks Out Pest Birds

Bird netting creates a physical barrier that prevents pest birds from reaching fruit. Bird B Gone's Garden Bird Netting is lightweight, easy to manage, and ideal for seasonal or temporary protection without the need for poisons, cannons, or traps. Fabricated from durable, UV-protected polypropylene, it features a 3/4-inch mesh size to exclude common birds, with 1/2-inch and 1/4-inch mesh options available for smaller species. Available in 14 x 100 ft and 14 x 200 ft bulk rolls, the netting can be trimmed to fit specific rows or trees. For optimal results, suspend the netting over a frame to keep it off foliage and prevent birds from reaching through the mesh.

Sonic Bird Deterrents Protect Large Orchard Areas

Bird B Gone's Bird Chase Super Sonic broadcasts distress and predator calls that target the natural instincts of up to 22 different bird species. The system plays species-specific sounds for two minutes, repeating every 10 minutes to disrupt landing and feeding behaviors. Featuring a built-in speaker capable of covering up to one full acre, this sound bird deterrent is fully programmable to deter pest birds day or night. Its weather-resistant, UV-protected housing is engineered for continuous outdoor exposure in agricultural environments.

Fog Force Drives Out Pest Birds

Bird B Gone's Fog Force is an aerosolized, non-toxic bird repellent designed for broad-area treatment. Applied using thermal foggers or automated misting systems, it utilizes methyl anthranilate—a food-grade grape extract that stimulates the trigeminal nerve and mucous membranes of birds. The sensation forces birds to leave the treated area immediately, offering an effective control measure that remains completely safe for crops, workers, and wildlife.
