Businesses across various industries require an affordable, safe, and effective bird repellent for deterring birds from specific areas during flights. Methyl anthranilate (MA) fulfills all these requirements and has been proven to be safe for humans, birds, and the environment.
Methyl anthranilate is a natural compound derived from plants that has a rich history of use as a flavor additive and aromatic in perfumery. It has received approval from the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a substance that is "generally recognized as safe" (GRAS).
MA provides a humane method of bird control. When birds are present near airports, transit depots, hospitals, power utilities, factories, warehouses, food processing facilities, and restaurants, both birds and humans can be at risk. MA acts as an irritant to birds' sensory systems, triggering a temporary physiological response without causing toxicity. Multiple studies have shown that even at low concentrations, MA induces a rapid avoidance response during flight, which improves with repeated exposure.
Research has demonstrated the high effectiveness of MA in dispersing birds from specific locations. For instance, at Homestead Air Reserve Station near Miami, Florida, MA successfully reduced bird aircraft strikes.
It is crucial to prioritize the safety of avian control methods for birds, wildlife, and the environment. Exclusion methods and scare tactics can unintentionally harm birds, while lethal methods and toxic chemical repellents have adverse effects.
Pestman Bird Repellent utilizes methyl anthranilate as its core active ingredient, employing modern biotechnology specifically designed for bird control in agriculture and airports. This innovative product aims to offer an eco-friendly and non-toxic solution. Furthermore, Pestman Bird Repellent's slow-release formulation ensures long-lasting effectiveness, amplifying the impact of methyl anthranilate multiple times. This reduces the need for frequent reapplication and optimizes resource utilization. Pestman Bird Repellent provides a sustainable approach to bird management, fostering harmony between humans and nature.
