Protect Your Farm’s Yield, Herd, and Infrastructure
Pest birds are an often-overlooked source of loss in modern agriculture. They cause a ripple effect of damage — destroying yields, contaminating feed, spreading disease, and corroding infrastructure. A single flock can erase months of work: blackbirds strip ripening fields, starlings raid feed bunks, and migrating geese carry pathogens to poultry houses. These aren’t minor nuisances; they threaten productivity, profitability, and long-term sustainability.
Protecting your operation requires more than scare tactics or cleanup — it demands a science-based, integrated defense. Avian Enterprises delivers that protection with EPA-registered, food-grade repellents that disrupt bird behavior through safe sensory and visual deterrents birds never adapt to. The result is a cleaner, safer, and more efficient farm where crops, herds, and facilities can thrive without the constant threat of avian intrusion.
- Crop Loss at Ripening (Crops): Blackbirds, grackles, starlings, and crows can cause 20–50%+ losses on individual crops when fruit/grain are most vulnerable.
- Labor-Heavy, Low-ROI Deterrents (Crops): Netting and scare devices require constant upkeep and birds habituate quickly.
- Feed Theft & Contamination (Dairy): A flock of ~1,000 starlings can eat ~40 lb/day of feed (over half a ton/month), selectively removing high-protein components and contaminating the remainder with droppings that can carry E. coli and Salmonella.
- Reduced Production (Dairy): Nutritionally degraded rations lead to lower milk yield and quality, cutting revenue.
- HPAI Biosecurity Risk (Poultry): Waterfowl are primary carriers; even one infected wild bird on site can trigger catastrophic depopulation and months of downtime.
- Smaller Bird Nesting & Hazards (Poultry): Sparrows/starlings/pigeons nest in rafters/vents, blocking airflow, increasing fire risk, and contaminating surfaces.
- Corrosive Damage (All): Uric acid in droppings degrades metal, wiring, paint, and machinery — accelerating repairs and asset loss.
Protect Your Crops and Maximize Yield
Avian Control® Bird Repellent protects ripening crops by creating a harmless sensory irritation that birds don’t adapt to. This EPA-registered, food-grade formula can be applied by ground rig, backpack, or aerial spray right up to harvest day — without affecting taste, texture, or quality. Birds can reduce yields by 15% to 50%, turning a profitable season into a loss, but Avian Control® helps you stop the damage before it starts.
For structures such as sheds and warehouses where birds roost and reintroduce pressure, deploy Avian FogForce® TR for continuous, automated protection. This “set-it-and-forget-it” system maintains a clean, bird-free environment, preventing contamination and equipment damage while saving time and labor.
Beyond the fields, pest birds threaten your operation by spreading disease to livestock and corroding valuable machinery. Avian Enterprises delivers science-backed, EPA-registered solutions that protect your crops, facilities, and bottom line — keeping your entire farm secure from field to facility.
Our Agriculture Protocol provides detailed guidance on protecting your fields and harvest from bird damage using Avian Control®. It includes step-by-step application instructions, coverage rates, and timing recommendations to help you maintain crop quality, protect yield, and reduce labor across your operation. Download the protocol to put proven, cost-effective bird control into practice.
Safeguard Your Herd and Your Bottom Line
Every bird that enters your barn is a direct threat to herd health and profitability. Starlings, pigeons, and sparrows consume high-value feed and contaminate it with droppings that carry harmful bacteria such as E. coli and Salmonella. A clean, bird-free facility is a more productive and profitable one.
Fog or spray Avian Control® in rafters, ledges, feed alleys, and entry points — it’s food-grade and safe for use directly on feed to stop consumption and contamination. For continuous, labor-free protection, install Avian FogForce® TR units at doors and hard-to-reach areas to create a 24/7 invisible barrier. In an Ohio State University Extension trial, a treated barn saw a drastic reduction in birds compared to an untreated control barn described as having “tens of thousands” of birds.
Protect your feed, structures and equipment from costly bird damage with Avian’s Barns and Equipment Protocol. This science-based guide helps agricultural operators safeguard critical infrastructure, reduce contamination, and extend equipment life through proven, integrated bird control strategies. Keep your operation cleaner, safer, and more efficient — from the rafters to the feed lines.
Strengthen Biosecurity and Prevent Avian Flu
For poultry farmers, Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) represents an existential risk. A single wild bird carrying the virus can trigger devastating flock losses, costly culling operations, and months of suspended production. Proactive biosecurity is your best defense — and it starts by preventing wild birds from ever reaching your barns.
Mist Avian Migrate® on grass, turf, and pond edges to establish a protective perimeter that waterfowl won’t cross. Pair it with InvisiDye® UV Marker to add a high-contrast “keep-out” visual signal in the 200–400 nm ultraviolet range that birds can see but humans cannot. Inside your houses, install Avian FogForce® TR in rafters, vents, and entry points to stop sparrows, starlings, and pigeons from nesting and spreading disease. Together, these products create a scientifically proven, multi-layered defense system that safeguards your flock, your facilities, and your future.
Reduce the threat of Avian Influenza with our detailed, step-by-step guide. This protocol walks you through creating a protective perimeter and fortifying your buildings using Avian's proven bird deterrence solutions, including specific application schedules, mixing guides, and best practices for maximum effectiveness.
Protect Your Profits with Avian Solutions
Bird-related losses can quietly drain thousands of dollars from your operation each season. In the field, flocks can destroy up to 50% of ripening crops. In dairy barns, starlings consume over 40 pounds of feed a day per thousand birds, contaminating the rest with harmful bacteria. Around poultry houses, a single wild waterfowl can introduce Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI), resulting in catastrophic losses and costly downtime.
Investing in prevention with Avian Enterprises solutions provides measurable, long-term savings across your entire operation. Avian Control® protects yields and feed quality, Avian Migrate® and InvisiDye® UV Marker keep disease-carrying birds off your property, and Avian FogForce® TR automates interior and structural protection. Together, these products help you eliminate wasted feed, preserve harvest quality, and avoid the devastating costs of bird-borne disease.
Use our ROI Calculator to estimate how much bird activity may be costing you — and how quickly an Avian investment can pay for itself through higher yields, healthier herds, and reduced maintenance costs. Smart prevention doesn’t just protect your farm — it protects your profits.
