Will The Bird B Gone?




bird b gone The Bird B Gone solar bird repeller is another example of the seemingly endless range of gadgets that can be powered by a simple solar panel and rechargeable battery setup. We've seen such anomalies as the solar birdhouse already on the market, so by comparison this device makes a lot of sense.

What Does It Do?

The solar panel charges the three AA rechargeable batteries that are included with the unit. The device runs off these batteries. The top cone rotates at the speed of approximately one full rotation every two seconds. The little metal sticks on the sides of the top cone are the same as car aerials: they can be extended to increase the diameter of the machine's operation. At full extension the device has a diameter of 5 feet.

What Is It For?


solar bird repeller This large, slowly rotating bar is suited for keeping birds off surfaces. One example that springs to mind is preventing birds gobbling up newly sown lawn seeds or tearing up freshly planted vegetable beds.

You may also want to use this device to protect freshly laid concrete from acquiring bird footprints. The company also offers the example of keeping the tops of air-conditioning units clean, though I cannot see why you'd bother.

You could put it on the roof of your car, but since most bird droppings on your vehicle are from aerial bombardments this device is unlikely to have any effect.

Learn more about this device at the company website.
