Avian Enterprises
Bird Repellent Line
In 2015, Devlin Reynolds, owner of bird repellent manufacturer Natural Forces and Rejex-It, passed away. His family did not want to continue the business, so they turned to Avian Enterprises LLC to carry on the product line. Avian Enterprises, a subsidiary company of Stone Soap Co. and makers of third-generation bird repellent Avian Control, saw an opportunity to expand its bird repellent business. The company purchased the intellectual assets (including EPA registrations) of Natural Forces and Rejex-It. Recently, Natural Forces and Rejex-It products Fog Force and Migrate have been reformulated for better performance by Avian Enterprises, and are now known as Avian Fog Force and Avian Migrate.

Online sales tools
Bird Barrier introduces two new sales tools for the professional’s arsenal: Product Advisor and Quick Quote. Product Advisor lets professionals walk through three simple questions — what kind of birds, what are they doing and where are they doing it — to determine suggested product solutions for their customers. After building the right program based on the Product Advisor results, Quick Quote then facilitates a speedy estimate to gauge the customer’s interest before a final proposal. Product Advisor does not require a login, but Quick Quote does.

Bird-B-Gone
Instant Repair Patch
This repair patch can create watertight, durable seals on a variety of objects. Seal off minor pest entry points in a warehouse, repair a compromised PVC pipe, and more. Approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, the patch is activated by ultraviolet (UV) light or sunlight. It’s made with reinforced polyester for long-lasting repairs. With a no mixing/measuring/mess process, the Instant Repair Patch is easily applied to plastics, plexiglass, fiberglass, metal, wood, concrete and more. Once applied and cured, the patch can then be drilled, sanded or painted.
Bird-X
Stainless Steel Bird Spikes
These spikes are backed by a 10-year warranty, help eliminate birds’ ability to perch, roost or nest, and help professionals reduce cleanup time and labor costs. Stainless Steel Spikes won’t corrode or decay, and install with adhesive, nails, screws or ties. Bird-X Bird Spikes have a flexible polycarbonate base that allows for installation on curved surfaces. With four variations — narrow, regular, extra-tall and extra-wide — virtually all types of birds can be deterred. Even stubborn birds like seagulls will not land when extra-tall spikes are in place, the company says.

J.T. Eaton’s duster pole (#1730BK-2S), featuring double-sided threading, allows mounting of a scraper and web duster in a single device.

Use this pole on tall buildings with minimum ladder movement to increase safety. The pole includes a removable handle for single-sided use.
