After millions of years of constant hunting by hawks, eagles, falcons and kites, nature has ruthlessly selected for survival only those birds who are terrified of objects hovering threateningly overhead. BIRDSCARING HELIKITES exploit this fear better than anything else because the flying object has no need to be hawk-shaped, it just needs to fly, and move high in the sky for the desired effect. Only Helikites fly with or without wind up to 200 feet high.

Bird control has always been a hit or miss affair, with old fashioned scarecrows or even the more modern propane canons and sonic wailers giving very variable protection, making it impossible for farmers to rely on them for long to counter expensive and often crippling crop losses. Birds are unpredictable and planning for them is very difficult. The scientifically designed, patented Helikite is the first and only bird control system that really works well over a long period of time because wild birds find it extremely difficult to overcome the innate terror of predatory hawks that Helikites create. Real hawks reinforce this fear, so habituation is very unlikely. If you have a difficult bird problem the powerful Helikite is probably the only scaring system really capable of protecting your livelihood.

SILENT BIRD CONTROL

With the Helikite angry neighbours, frightened livestock, and visits form the by-law officers are things of the past. Noise is not required for effective bird control. Sight is the major sense in birds and so they are affected far more by the correct visual stimulus than by anything they hear - just like the human fear of snakes and spiders. You can fly a Helikite next to populated areas where noisy propane canons or sonic wailers would cause objections. Helikites can fly unattended, 24/7. They work in the early hours when the birds are actively feeding, unlike propane canons that usually have a morning time restriction. Local people will appreciate your concern for them and environment. You will get a better night's sleep as well! Silent control is unique to the new Helikite and it makes bird scaring feasible in many previously impossible situations - like pig or cattle operations, in grain stores or near homes. Humane to all, and safe - no explosive gas. The revolutionary Helikite allows bird control where none was possible before.

FULL FARM PROTECTION, AT 1/4 THE COST

The unique Helikites can fly at great heights (up to 60 metres). This enables them to be seen over hills or hedges and to have excellent bird scaring ability over vast areas - far more than is usual with any other method. A Helikite is inexpensive to buy. You can buy four for the average price of one propane canon or wailer. This will save you hundreds of dollars and the vast coverage of each Helikite means that you can afford to protect the entire area of your vulnerable crops. Are you fed up with putting an expensive squawk box at one end of the field only to see the birds feeding at the other end? Then total bird control using economical Helikites is for you.

Check out your own bird-control situation against our unique acreage chart. Depending on the type of bird and the food value of the crop the area protected by one Helikite varies. This is common to all bird scarers. The following table shows the acreage of protection over which the Helikites have proven to be effective against wild birds. This chart might change slightly over time as we obtain new information from farmers or scientists especially in North America, but as far as we know, it is the only such chart in existence. We are always interested in any bird scaring data you have, please call.
