Fish pond bird repeller anti bird solution

Birds often choose places close to water sources as their habitat, and fish ponds not only provide water but also food for birds. At the same time, some migratory birds also use fish ponds as ideal resting places during migration. In this way, the area around the fish pond becomes a gathering place for birds. So the invisible losses caused by this have to be taken seriously by breeders.

1. Bird stealing leads to reduced production

The main harmful species to aquaculture are wading birds such as egrets, gray cranes, and wild ducks. These birds use aquaculture ponds as their main foraging grounds, often hovering above the ponds and diving from the air to catch fish and shrimp near the water surface. According to a survey, an adult egret can eat more than ten shrimp per meal, and during peak population periods, it can even eat dozens of kilograms of small fish per day. Farmers have reported that these birds have caused a reduction in aquaculture production, with fish breeding ponds being the most severe. Due to their size being suitable, the reduction in production is generally around 50%, with high rates even reaching over 80%. Shrimp production is generally reduced by 20% -30%, so the losses cannot be underestimated and there is a trend of increasing year by year.

2. Infectious diseases causing fish and shrimp deaths and reduced production

Birds spend a long time foraging above the pond mouth for fish, shrimp, and crabs. If fish, shrimp, and crab diseases happen to occur at the pond mouth, the egret, as an intermediate host, can infect normally aquatic organisms, leading to an expansion of the affected area. Two years ago, there was a large-scale outbreak of parasitic tapeworm disease in the intestines of grass carp and crucian carp along the river in our city, commonly known as "noodle worms".

3. The pecking of birds causes a decrease in quality

This situation poses great harm to crab farming and ornamental fish farming. Due to the incomplete limbs caused by bird pecking, the appearance quality of the product is directly affected. Therefore, the selling price is generally only about 70% of the same specification of healthy limbs, and sometimes even lower. The losses caused to the farmers are obvious.

4. Fish Pond Bird Removal Method

At present, the main method of bird prevention in fisheries and aquaculture is to install bird nets. In order to develop the ornamental fish industry, protect farmers' interests, and reduce the losses caused by birds to fisheries and aquaculture, the installation of bird nets can recover certain economic losses. However, based on the risk characteristics of several major harmful birds, this method may not have a preventive effect on all harmful birds. Egrets and herons mainly feed in shallow water areas near the water edge, The method of setting up nets by the pond can have a preventive effect on these two types of birds. However, night herons and kingfishers mainly search for food in deep water by flying and diving, and this net setting method does not have a preventive effect on night herons and kingfishers. Therefore, if nets are only set up by the pond, the fish pond will still suffer losses. However, to fully cover the entire water surface with a net, the cost is very expensive and the operation is difficult.
