Bird Balls make water unattractive and inaccessible to birds, encouraging them to leave the area for more suitable resources.<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Bird Balls<\/a> is a product line of floating bird and wildlife deterrents that rest on the surface of the water and provide up to 99 percent coverage for water-based areas. These floating covers block geese, ducks, swans, gulls, and other wildlife from entering or interacting with the body of water. Bird Balls make water unattractive and inaccessible to birds, encouraging them to leave the area for more suitable resources. There are three unique shapes to choose from including the Armor Ball AQUA, Hexprotect AQUA, and Rhombo Hexoshield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to bird and wildlife control, Bird Balls also reduce liquid loss through evaporation by up to 95 percent, reduce chemical consumption, reduce heating costs by up to 85 percent, provide algae control, odor control, and prohibits growth of clogging weeds. Bird Balls have a wide range of applications including airport retention & retention ponds, biogas plants, cement plants, chemical plants, dairies, frac pond covers, TSS Removal, reservoirs, mines, slurry tanks, municipal water and wastewater reservoirs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bird Balls are eco-friendly, fully recyclable, long-lasting (lifespan up to 25 years), weather-resistant, and require little to no maintenance. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
