Bird Hawk Flying Kite with Pole Crop Protector Bird Scare Flying Kite with 4m Pole Has The Effect of Scaring Birds

I am very impressed with this bird scarer. I have hawks in my area frequently, but since installing this kite, they haven't come anywhere near my coop. The movement is incredibly realistic; the way it catches the wind and vibrates really seems to mimic a real predator, which keeps the hens safe without causing any harm to the local wildlife. Assembly was straightforward and the craftsmanship is excellent. The 4-meter telescopic pole is sturdy, and even in light winds, the kite maintains great balance and stability. It covers a wide area of my property, and the laser-cut materials feel durable enough to last. It is a simple, effective solution for anyone looking to protect their garden or livestock.

This works perfect absolutely keeps big birds away from my chickens. Love it wanna buy several more

I bought this kite to help deter turkey buzzards. I live in the country. About 1/4 mile behind my property are power line towers where the buzzards roost. I put new roofs on my home, garage and shop last year and something about the new roofs attracted the buzzards. I was horrified one day when I heard something walking on my roof. I went outside to find around 50+ buzzards on my new roofs. If you don't know, buzzards will degrade a roof quickly with their talons and feces and once they start roosting somewhere, it is difficult to get rid of them. I put this kite up in my yard and the buzzards have left my property for the most part. I also have a pond which is another attraction. There were multiple days that I came home from work and found 50+ buzzards on my new roofs. I would clap, scream and they wouldn't budge. In the last year, the buzzards and only a few at that, less than 10 have been back. When I notice they are venturing back on my property, I will move the kite to a different location. I have ordered two of these because the string that comes with the kite is not that durable. The kite itself is made well. It has withstood the elements, sun, rain, snow, ice, heat and cold. It gets lots of wind and is up and down a lot and the kite is holding up great. One order did not have any string/twine at all in the box. The first one, the string wore thin from the constant movement and in a high wind storm that came up, the string broke and I never could find where the kite flew off to. The size is great. The pole that comes with it is very sturdy and has withstood the elements.I do have to go out there occasionally and unwind the twine from around the pole. If you are having problems with buzzards, this is a great value for the money to attempt to get rid of the buzzards. It has given me piece of mind to not come home and find buzzards on my new roofs!

Terrible no pierdas tu dinero simplemente se enrolla y no hace nada

Worked well until it didn’t. Pigeons got use to it pretty quickly. Assembly had to be tweaked due to broken parts. (I didn’t inspect it immediately upon receipt - my fault.) Color faded relatively quickly. You’ll need a clear area all around the mounting post. Move frequently. Catches the wind nicely.

Unbelievable how good this works, we had a huge early spring blackbird flock pooping all over the pool and the edges constantly. Standing Owls no bueno… this thing, nothing comes around. My dogs are scared. Had to shorten the string a bit cuz it was getting tangled… location is key, getting good movement from the wind, it’s definitely an eagle kite!

I’m giving it 2 stars because it worked great for the first few days and kept the birds away, however it kept getting tangled around the pole and then the poles poked through the kite portion and now looks dead and awful.

This kite is amazing. We were losing a chicken or two a day to Hawks after the leaves all fell off and the weather started to stay cold and cloudy. I purchased this in October and it has been flying without issue since. We needed a solution. Out of the box this was entirely too short for our needs in Western Pennsylvania, however, I had a fly fishing pole and a section of hurricane fence top rail, along with a 3 foot length of rebar, so I was able to extend the height to well over 20 feet getting it both up high enough that it did not freak out the chickens, and so that it keeps the smaller predators away. I am trying to say, this thing is great, but you need a bit more equipment to make it absolutely awesome. You can get the extra fly fishing rod on Amazon as well, just search for B&M Blk Widow 5 Sect 16.5 Rigged' - BW5RR and that may be enough for you. Otherwise your local hardware store will have the top rail and the rebar for another probably close to $50 investment. I would say it is very durable because it survived a very cold and wet winter here. It flies super easily with the slightest breeze and I have seen it flying really high and taut in really tough winds. I was initially unsure if it would be worth the money but since it has now protected my chickens for half a year, and since I got it rigged up high enough, I have not lost a single bird; it is absolutely a good value for the money.

my buddy buying one to

works for geese

The kite was easy to assemble. The pole however didn’t extend as per the instruction video. I spent the extra money for the pole only to discover it is in pieces and will not attach end to end or telescope as per the video. We had to tape the ends together, not sure how long the tape will hold. Not happy with the pole

À besoin de peu de vent pour prendre son envol. Seul point négatif c’est que la corde s’enroule autour de la perche.
