SITE INSTALLED – Vineyard – Stellenbosch SA
SPECIES – Sparrows
EAGLE EYES – Two units
RESULTS – Our viticulturist, discovered a new invention called an ‘Eagle Eye’! The Eagle Eye is an optic electrical bird control system and works by silently reflecting light in such a manner to irritate birds in its presence, thereby lessening the losses caused by birds damaging or consuming grapes, or other produce. We now have two Eagle Eyes on strategic points on the farm where most of our losses occurred. This works very well and importantly, causes no harm to the birds while keeping them at bay. The system is energy efficient (is solar power driven) and endorsed by the South African Department of Nature Conservation. www.rainbowsend.co.za/blog/
