Can I apply Avian Control® myself?
You can apply Avian Control® without any permit.
How does Avian Control® work?
Avian Control® uses an effective, proven, and non-lethal bird repellent ingredient that provides long-lasting bird repellency. The active ingredient, Methyl Anthranilate (MA), irritates the pain receptors associated with birds’ sense of taste and smell. Birds find this compound unpleasant and leave areas and crops treated with it. The unpleasant effect is temporary and does not harm the birds. Read the product label here.
How is Avian Control® applied?
Avian Control® bird repellent can be applied in either a spraying method.
How is Avian Control® more effective than other bird repellents?
Based on our customer’s feedback and observations, Avian Control® works faster and lasts longer than other bird repellents. Additionally, most other bird repellents require up to 5 gallons/acre per application. Avian Control® is sprayed at a rate between 16 and 40 oz/acre per application. Avian Control® has a number of distinct advantages over old technology products. Significantly extended length of effectiveness, strength of repellency, no pre harvest interval for crop applications, short re-entry interval for crop applications, no evidence of damage to plants or fruit, suitability for use around people, pets, and animals. Finally, Avian Control® leaves no effect on treated crop taste and no damage to treated hard surfaces.
How long does Avian Control® last?
In outdoor applications, Avian Control® can repel nuisance birds for up to 2 weeks. Avian Control® was designed to resist washing away from light rains or irrigation. Old technology repellents are water and surfactant based, increasing their tendency to be washed away with the slightest amount of rain or irrigation. Avian Control® does not contain either water or surfactants, dramatically increasing its resistance to being washed away.

Can Avian Control® get rid of birds in dairy barns, sheds and other structures?
Absolutely! Avian Control® Bird Repellent is highly recommended for removing unwanted birds from dairy barns, storage and packing sheds and other non-inhabited structures. Simply spray or fog undiluted Avian Control® onto areas that birds are using to roost or loaf.
Application is recommended at sunrise. Open an easy exit for the birds and begin to spray or fog Avian Control®. This is a behavior changing process, so two or three applications may be necessary to break birds of their habit of occupying the structure. Treatments should be 5 to 7 days apart for maximum effectiveness. Re-treatments should be done as soon as new birds begin to re-occupy the building.
