Birds build nests using branches, wire, and other materials on power poles and towers. During thunderstorms and strong winds, this can lead to grounding, short circuits, and power outages. In severe cases, it may even cause fires, posing a threat to power supply safety and the birds themselves. To address this issue, State Grid Luoyang County Power Supply Company has installed bird deterrents and insulated sleeves to prevent bird-line conflicts at the source.
The orange object in the image above, resembling a small windmill, is a tower bird deterrent, also known as an anti-light wind-powered bird deterrent. Its operating principle is straightforward: when the wind blows, the deterrent rotates. This continuously moving object alerts birds, deterring them from approaching. Additionally, the bird deterrent is equipped with reflective lenses that produce flickering reflections when exposed to sunlight. Birds' eyes are highly sensitive to light, and the reflections cause them discomfort, prompting them to avoid the area. Even in the absence of wind, the reflective lenses continue to function, maintaining their bird-deterrent effectiveness.
True Bird Repeller - Anti-Light Wind-Powered Bird Repeller ZQN-GT-FL, made from high-quality materials, features iron rods with a hot-dip galvanized surface treatment, making it resistant to rust and corrosion and extremely durable, capable of withstanding long-term use in harsh outdoor environments. Additionally, its reflective mirror frame is designed in a bowl shape, enhancing rotational power and speed to improve bird repelling effectiveness. From an economic perspective, this device is cost-effective, suitable for large-scale installations, and easy to install—simply secure it to the area requiring protection. It also supports live installation.
In practical applications, the ZQN-GT-FL anti-light wind-powered bird deterrent has proven to effectively reduce bird activity on power facilities and lower the rate of line failures. It is particularly suitable for installation in open, windy areas, such as on utility poles. Of course, no single bird deterrent measure is a panacea, and it is typically necessary to combine multiple methods based on actual conditions. However, the anti-light wind-powered bird deterrent is undoubtedly an economical and practical choice.
