Businesses across various industries require a cost-effective bird repellent that is safe, efficient, and capable of deterring birds from specific areas during flights. Methyl anthranilate (MA) is an ideal solution that fulfills all these requirements while being proven safe for humans, birds, and the environment.
Methyl anthranilate, derived from plants, is a natural compound with a rich history of use as a flavor enhancer and fragrance in perfumery. It has received approval from both the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a "generally recognized as safe" (GRAS) substance.
MA offers a humane approach to bird control. Locations such as airports, transit depots, hospitals, power utilities, factories, warehouses, food processing facilities, and restaurants pose risks to both birds and humans when birds are present. MA acts as an irritant to birds' sensory systems, eliciting a temporary physiological response without toxicity. Numerous studies have demonstrated that even at low concentrations, MA triggers a rapid avoidance response during flight, which becomes more effective with repeated exposure.
Research has indicated that MA is highly successful in dispersing birds from targeted areas. For instance, at Homestead Air Reserve Station near Miami, Florida, MA effectively reduced bird aircraft collisions.
Considering the well-being of birds, wildlife, and the environment is crucial when implementing avian control methods. Exclusion techniques and scare tactics can unintentionally harm birds, while lethal methods and toxic chemical repellents have detrimental consequences.
Pestman Bird Repellent utilizes methyl anthranilate as its key active ingredient, employing advanced biotechnology specifically tailored for bird control in agriculture and airports. This innovative product aims to provide an eco-friendly and non-toxic solution. Additionally, 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 offers a sustainable approach to bird management, fostering harmony between humans and nature.
