Protecting Your Agricultural Operation with Avitrol: The Smart Solution for Bird Control

For agricultural businesses, pest birds are more than just a nuisance—they’re a direct threat to your bottom line. Birds can cause significant crop loss, contaminate livestock feed, and spread diseases that jeopardize both food safety and animal health. Finding an effective, humane, and cost-efficient bird control solution is essential for maintaining productivity and protecting profits.

That’s where Avitrol comes in.

Avitrol is a proven flock behavior modification agent designed to safely and effectively repel birds from your operation. Whether you manage a grain storage facility, dairy farm, feedlot, orchard, or vineyard, Avitrol can help protect your investment and ensure compliance with food safety regulations.

The True Cost of Bird Infestations in Agriculture

Bird infestations can cause severe financial losses for agricultural businesses. Here’s how:

📉 Crop Damage & Yield Reduction

Birds such as starlings, blackbirds, crows, and pigeons can consume and destroy large amounts of crops. In orchards and vineyards, they peck at fruit, making it unsellable. In grain fields, flocks can strip away acres of production in days.

🏭 Feed Contamination & Livestock Health Risks

Birds don’t just take food—they also contaminate it. Their droppings spread bacteria and fungi, leading to feed spoilage and increased disease risks for livestock. This can directly impact:
✔️ Cattle health in dairy farms and feedlots
✔️ Poultry production in hatcheries and barns
✔️ Stored grain quality in silos and processing plants

⚠️ Equipment Damage & Compliance Issues

Bird droppings are highly acidic and can corrode metal structures, damaging equipment and storage facilities. They also pose a major sanitation risk, potentially leading to violations of food safety regulations like FSMA (Food Safety Modernization Act).

How Avitrol Protects Your Ag Business

Unlike physical deterrents (nets, spikes, or scare devices) that require constant maintenance, Avitrol offers a proactive and long-term bird control solution. Here’s why it works:

✅ Flock Behavior Modification for Lasting Results

Avitrol works by targeting social communication among birds. When a small percentage of birds in a flock consume Avitrol-treated bait, they exhibit temporary distress behaviors that signal danger to the rest of the group. As a result, the entire flock leaves the area and does not return.

✅ Effective for Large-Scale Operations

For grain storage, dairy farms, vineyards, and processing plants, Avitrol provides a scalable solution that can be applied to large areas without disrupting daily operations.

✅ Humane & Environmentally Conscious

Avitrol is designed to be used as a flock repellent, not a poison. The goal is to deter birds, not kill them. By carefully controlling dosage and following best practices, treatments can be conducted with minimal to no mortality, ensuring humane application.

✅ Cost-Effective Alternative to Netting & Scare Tactics

Traditional exclusion methods, such as netting, spikes, and noisemakers, require ongoing maintenance and labor. Avitrol, on the other hand, provides long-term bird deterrence at a fraction of the cost, making it the economical choice for large agricultural businesses.
