Just thought I’d send a note quickly for your reference- we’ve had great success with this laser deterring the ducks. Would say that it has moved them on completely.
Thanks and Happy New Year.
Kenrose Co –
We are produce growers in Ayr, QLD. When I ordered my laser for deterring the magpie geese I was hoping it may also work to deter the deer and it did!
The effect on the magpie geese was instant as was the deer but then after a few days they deer that were more than 10 acres away started to return.
We worked out the reason for this is that the laser works really well on slow speed for 10-12 acres but is harder to control the speed beyond that point.
We then decided to add a gas gun and the combination of the gas gun and laser worked well to move the deer on.
We haven’t seen them or lost produce to them since August and are very happy with the results.
Mt Whitestone Farms –
We are very happy with our laser. It has done a great job on the farm, especially with scaring the ducks off the lettuce.
Works well, great job!

We would like to thank Bird Control Australia for their amazing laser. After 5 years of having trouble with wild ducks in our olympic size pool, we finally have the problem sorted. So easy to install and great customer service! I highly recommend their products to all companies with duck or bird issues.
Ron Willace –
Our machinery and hay shed was suffering the inevitable consequences of allowing swallows to roost in there.
A few swallows quickly become hundreds and machinery was being damaged by their droppings.
We were after an easy fix, it didn’t come cheap but couldn’t have been easier. One single laser machine projecting its green beam has fixed our problem in no time at all.
Appreciate the great service.
PD & EC Maintenance PTY LTD –
If I could give this product and company 6 stars I would.
We had an extensive issue with ducks on our dam in the evenings and we would need to spend 1 hour each morning 5 days a week and more on a Monday cleaning their mess.
From the day we started using the laser almost 10 weeks ago, the ducks completely disappeared.
It’s amazing! The customer support from this company is just as fantastic too.
Many thanks team.

PARISH LANE WINES –
We have been extremely impressed with the equipment purchased from Bird Control Australia. For years we have put nets over our vineyard to protect our grape crop from crows, parrots and silver eyes. This year we used a combination of Hawk laser, XPELLER SUPERBIRD PRO sonic bird deterrent and some very realistic looking synthetic crows. Our crop was well protected with only minimal bird interference and the time saved in putting nets out, freeing birds from nets, readjusting nets, packing nets away etc…was huge. Very happy and will use this again next year!

STOCKWELL SHOPPING CENTRES –
Hi. We would like to thank you for a wonderful product. We have install these lasers ( 80 Mw Hawk Laser and Bird Laser) at 3 shopping centres to control the infestation of Swallows. We had previously tried different things and nothing worked. On installation of these lights instantly the swallows were disturbed and within weeks moved on to other locations. We have been able to now control the cleanliness of the areas that were getting covered in bird droppings.
We highly recommend these lights to anyone having issues with swallows. Thanks again.

Hi Joe
Thanks for fixing our 500 mW laser. It is now working well and after about a week in operation I noticed a dramatic drop in bird numbers.
I wanted to let you know that the lasers definitely make a major impact on reducing our bird population into the orchard area.
Thanks

We received our Hawk Laser unit and it’s recently been set up in a temporary location at our pool for testing.
We’re stoked to report the local swim club has utilised our outdoor pool for a few mornings and complimented on the enormous improvement it has made on the cleanliness. Swimmers are no longer sifting through specs of duck manure during their training sessions. From what I understand the improvement is quite significant and we’re hoping we continue to see positive results moving forward.
Thanks for your help.

We are stone fruit growers who have been battling birds for a long time. Another grower told us about this company and their brilliant laser. Our main culprits have been starlings and crows so Bird Control Australia recommend using the laser and Superbird Xpeller Pro together. We have not been disappointed at all. The results have been excellent and the company great to deal with.
Adam Eggins- Taylors Wines –
Very excited to commission the laser.
We have been testing it in a packaging where sparrows and starlings are nesting on our finished goods palates and the laser is very effective at deterring birds when it is operating.
We are going to ramp up our work with the HAWK LASER and release it after hours at roosting sites within the broader winery to try to encourage birds to find a permanent home somewhere else.
We may end up buying a second or third unit depending how our trial work goes but the early signs are very encouraging.
Will report back with a few more months of observations under our belt.
Alexander Homewood- Ace Waste –
We have recently installed this laser on the roof of our warehouse, we were suffering from a serious seagull issue, which was leaving a terrible mess on our roof and destroying our solar panels. Setting up this device on a pre programmed loop, In conjunction with the Broadband Pro unit, has dramatically decreased the number of seagulls we see on our roof now, if any. This is an extremely powerful unit, with significant range, and well worth the investment if your business is suffering from the same issue. Highly Recommended.

Hi Angie and Joe, we would like to let you know how happy we are with our Hawk Laser Bird unit.
We had a problem with swallows permanently living under our roof over our Bowling green. After a month of installing the unit we have only two who are proving difficult to get rid of as they keep flying in and out again so we hope in time they will leave as well.
Thanks for your great service

We have recently installed 2 of these systems in our vehicle workshops that were experiencing a significant swallow problem. Results were immediate and very effective. Very impressed so far.
Gary Baxter- VIC –
In October this every year our beautiful and very large Beech (both copper and tricoloured) trees produce small seeds. And every year the rosellas descend, 30 or 40 at one time and attack the trees. Leaves and small branches fall like confetti which drives me crazy. The trees are so tall that I have not been able to do anything about the situation. However, this year we purchased a programmable laser scanner which shone a laser light all around the top of the trees. It took a couple of days for all the birds to disappear but they did and this year the trees have a full plumage of leaves.
Thank you Bird Control Australia.
Joe Rizzo –
We thought we would try a couple of 80 MW versions for the packaging sheds prior to buying the bigger ones for the orchard and we are well impressed. They have been great for keeping birds, mainly swallows out.
Wild River Organic –
Hi Angie,
I just wanted to let you know that we set up the Hawk Laser MKII 500 mW we bought in March just prior to planting our chickpeas and lentils. In previous seasons we had Brolgas walking behind the planter and plucking out the seeds right as they were planted. We chased and chased them with the Gator but they would just circle around and land as soon as we parked the Gator. Ducks were also coming in to gobble up any chickpeas on the ground surface. With the Hawk Laser operating we had no birds at all on the crop! The Brolgas were still flying into the property but landing adjacent to the planted fields. They looked longingly towards the chickpea fields but never entered. We will keep you posted once the crop develops on the chickpeas but at this stage, we are delighted and very relieved with the success of the Hawk Laser II.
Warm regards,
John Biggs

2 x 500 MW Hawk Lasers in our vineyard scared away all birds except a few small parrots. The company recommended adding a sound device as we had no other bird control methods in place. Makes sense to me. Very impressed so far. Happy it also not impacted our animals.
Nathan –
Using the Hawk Laser at the Olympic sized school swimming pool has been the single most effective solution for getting rid of wild ducks. Amazing!
John Panton –
Using the laser on a hydroponic lettuce farm where $1000 per day of produce was being lost to wild ducks. The deterrent effect was almost instant and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend
John North –
We have mangoes this season thanks to our Hawk Laser. It has done a fantastic job keeping the cockatoos and crows away. We had a malfunction with the unit 3 months after purchase and the company were very quick to resolve it even though it was right in the middle of Christmas holidays. Highly recommend both the laser and the company
Graeme Watters –
First year having cherries before being stolen by birds, thanks guys laser working well just need something to get rid of the 60 deer that come in overnight

Hi Angie
Just some feedback on our recently purchased hawk laser .As you are aware we have beautiful Australian parrots that continually came around our sugar storage area. As CC Amatil is a responsible environmental company we were looking for an safe and harm free solution to deter the parrots from coming around our facilities .At first I was sceptical that the hawk laser would work but going on your advice and your guidance we persisted with the device and eventually the birds stopped coming around .It has taken several weeks for it to kick in but the laser does work .I don’t fully understand why it took such and while but nature is not always an exact science .I really hope other customers who have similar problems look at this as an solution .Once again thank you for all your help
Regards
Brad @ CC Amatil

In addition to other methods, automated lasers are used as a bird deterrent on our Cherry and Apple Orchard.
We have found the 500mW Hawk-laser to the best unit on the market for our purposes and at a considerably
lower cost to other brands. The programing is also very easy and quick in comparison to others we have used.
Jarred –
Using the 80 MW Bird Control Hawk Laser in our large warehouse space has proven to be a god send. Swallows and pigeons were the main culprits.
Installation was easy, not requiring hard wiring. It scan across the ceiling and over beams and is not disruptive to the staff
Veronica- NSW –
Our grounds were covered in ducks and their mess. There must have been 150 ducks coming daily. We tried many other products and then came across the Hawk Laser. What a simple yet amazing way to deter the ducks! And we don’t even have to put up with noisy noises and smelly smells! Highly recommend ????
Tony Kelly Melbourne City Football Club –
Melbourne City happily endorse these products and Bird Control Australia.
Ducks were causing major problems to our main pitch.Large numbers of ducks were coming in every night, not only causing turf damage but leaving an incredible ‘mess’. The pitch became unfit for use and our regular turf maintenance programme was severely impacted.
The Hawk Laser combined with the visual scare hawk have been a successful deterrant. I am very happy with the results.
A big thankyou to Angie for the friendly and informative assistance provided by Bird Control Australia
Patrick Troughton- Burnie City Council –
I am very pleased to advise that the Laser hawk bird scaring device is working very well.
We have installed the device on a light pole located near the Norfolk Pines that contained the birds, we have currently programmed the laser to work on three of the four trees in the area and have had great success to date. Greatly appreciate your assistance
Vineyard Vitaculture –
A great addition to our bird control box of tricks. Using the Hawk lasers has been the perfect finishing touch. Thank you for adding the timer to your site too.
Elaine – Vineyard owner – Kerralee Vineyard NSW –
Thank you for your prompt delivery on 28 January of the Hawk Laser. It has proved very effective and has a range well in excess of the quoted 350 metres.
As a consequence, we would like to order a second Hawk Laser.”

This laser has been excellent for our vineyard. The machine is easily programmable to run up and down the vines and its fantastic that we do not need to stand there and control it.

We used to have a terrible problem with seagulls in our stadium and tried many products which sometimes helped but this amazing gadget really did fix the problem!
Graham H –
We purchased these devices for our customer using these in mine sites. The technology is outstanding and so are the results. It works on ALL bird species even detering birds of prey
