A netting post cap 11 is provided for fitting over the top of a post. Posts are often used for fences to protect animals and agriculture. In certain cases, netting is used for additional protection from animals and agriculture. Wires can be strung between posts on the top of the netting post caps. Netting can be supported over the wires and netting post caps 11. The netting post cap 11 generally has a domed head 12 and a stem 14. The stem 14 may connect the dome 12 with struts 13 for structural support and aid in tying off wire ends. Holes 15 in the dome 12 are used to thread wire through and tie off wire ends. Protrusions 17 rising from the dome 12 secure the netting into position and protect the netting.

An avian streamer deterrent system includes an electric power line support structure coupled to a plurality of conducting wires. Each conducting wire of the plurality of conducting wires is coupled to an insulator. At least one avian streamer deterrent is disposed above the insulator of at least one of the conducting wires of the plurality of conducting wires. The at least one avian streamer deterrent may be disposed on a that is absent an insulator and situated above the plurality of conducting wires. The at least one avian streamer deterrent or an additional avian streamer deterrent may extend over one or more jumpers coupling at least a first conducting wire of the plurality of conducting wires to a second conducting wire of the plurality of conducting wires. In addition, the at least one avian streamer deterrent may comprise a rotatable configuration or a collapsible configuration.

Apparatus for deterring birds and animals from roosting on boat decks and other surface areas in form of a mechanical repeller includes a bracket for attachment to a surface area, and a housing including a quick-release fastening device to connect the housing with the bracket. The quick-release fastening device forms a pivotable bearing between the housing and the bracket. At least one pole extends from the housing and a bearing supports the housing in the bearing. An electric motor turns the housing and thereby moves the pole above the surface area. The electric motor includes an output shaft which engages the bracket axially detachable but torque proof. A rechargeable battery is provided and supplied with electric power from a solar cell. The housing is configured in form of a closed module which accommodates the solar cell, an electronic control unit, the electric motor, and the rechargeable battery.

Systems, devices, apparatus and methods for deterring birds and other animals from structures such as but not limited to cell towers, communications towers, buildings and areas to be protected. An effigy of the species to be deterred is suspended from an upper suspending structure and a lower suspending structure. The effigy can be molded or otherwise produced from rubber, plastic, or any other suitable material. The effigy can contain an internal supporting structure attached to a first cable and a second cable for suspending from the suspending structures. Either of the cables, or both, can include tensioning lines. Other embodiments include hangers and stands that can be attached to structures such as towers, buildings and the like. A C shaped hanger can be used for hanging an effigy which allows for the effigy to be able to move, such as rotate and simulate a live bird. A stand can allow for the effigy to pivot up and down which can simulate beak rising and falling, as well as the entire effigy being able to rotate in place.

A light fixture can include a pole. The light fixture can also include an integrated cap disposed atop the pole, where the integrated cap includes at least one light fixture component coupling feature that couples to at least one light fixture component.

The invention in whole is designed to simply and effectively control problems associated with birds in the area. More specifically it suspends a taut line just above a surface, thereby, preventing birds from landing on or near the line. The design has been refined to be as minimalistic as possible while still providing a high quality product that will last for years. Inherently, this also produces both an aesthetically pleasing and non intrusive product. Since Birds cannot grasp the thin line, they are forced to seek distant landing points. The thin line by nature will vibrate in even the slightest wind. This produces both audible and inaudible sounds further repelling birds from the protected area. Birds quickly loose the lure to be in the protected area, greatly reducing associated bird problems. The simple deployment of this system produces both instant and obvious results.
