Wildlife deterrence using mono-colored light to induce neurophysical behavioral responses in animals
10321672 · 2019-06-18 · ·

Wildlife deterrence methods and systems use mono-colored light within a sensitivity range of a short-wavelength-sensitive (SWS) photoreceptor of a species to be deterred, such as an avian species. The mono-colored light may be generated by one or more high brightness mono-colored light emitting diodes (LEDs) and may be within 25 nm of a peak absorption wavelength of the SWS photoreceptor of the species. The mono-colored light is directed to a deterrence area with an intensity sufficient to cause at least a temporary disruption of visual perception in the species to induce an augmented behavioral response in the species resulting in avoidance of the deterrence area. The mono-colored light may also be generated as intermittent pulses having a duration sufficient to keep a pupil of an eye of the species in a continuous unstable state to prevent light adaption by the species.

Netting material with reinforcing flap and eyelets

A netting material having a length dimension and a width dimension much smaller than the length dimension comprises a flap folded from a fold region of the netting material along a longitudinal fold line at a distance from a longitudinal edge of the netting. The flap therefore comprises at least two layers of the netting material folded together. One or more eyelets are provided in the flap.

A mounting frame for bird spike strips is an apparatus that is used to support a set of bird spike strips upon a billboard, sign, stand, or other structure upon which various birds would otherwise rest. The apparatus includes a first mounting rail, a second mounting rail, a first support bracket, a second support bracket, a spike attachment mechanism, and an anchoring mechanism. The first mounting rail and the second mounting rail are utilized to provide a stable mounting surface for bird spike strips. The first support bracket and the second support bracket enable connection of the first mounting rail and the second mounting rail to a billboard, sign, stand, or other structure. The spike attachment mechanism ensures that the previous problem of the traditional adhesive on bird spike strips fading or providing insufficient connection to billboards, signs, stands, or other structures. The anchoring mechanism ensures the first support bracket and the second support bracket connect securely to the billboard, sign, stand, or other structure.
