{"product_id":"avepro-bird-scarer-kites","title":"AvePro Bird Scarer Kites","description":"\u003cp\u003eA raptor-mimic kite on a telescopic pole that deters pest birds from crops, orchards, and open agricultural areas through unpredictable wind-driven movement. One unit covers up to 1.5 hectares. 6m or 9m pole heights. No power, no consumables. The right tool for agribusiness operators protecting crops in the lead-up to harvest, or for any open-area application where physical exclusion is not practical and a seasonal deterrent is what the situation requires.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eImportant: Bird Scarer Kites require active management to remain effective. Birds are intelligent and will acclimatise to a static deterrent over time. To maintain effectiveness: install only after pest birds have arrived at the site, not before. Move the unit at least 3 to 5 metres every 5 to 10 days. Take the unit down temporarily from time to time to keep birds alert. Early installation allows birds to assess and habituate to the kite before the critical protection window opens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor areas larger than 1.5 hectares, deploy multiple units spaced to provide overlapping coverage. For critical sections within a larger property (high-value rows, ripening blocks), combining kites with physical exclusion such as AvePro Bird Netting 50mm provides the strongest protection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AvePro","offers":[{"title":"6m Pole Kit","offer_id":46292637778119,"sku":"13-APBS-K6m","price":170.41,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9m Pole Kit","offer_id":46292637810887,"sku":"13-APBS-K9m","price":215.42,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0720\/2819\/2967\/files\/avepro-bird-scarer-kites-avepro-bird-scarer-kite-hero-with-packaging_1ba7fc88-cb24-4a18-948f-e1daa1465267.png?v=1773556163","url":"https:\/\/pestit.com.au\/products\/avepro-bird-scarer-kites","provider":"Pest IT Pty Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
