The FireFly™ Bird Flight Diverter

U.S. Patent Pending

The Firefly II Bird Flight Diverter keeps hazardous birds away from airport runways. The Firefly is effective in abating wildlife-strike hazards at contiguous land/water environs and the perfect complement to any BASH program.  The Firefly I prevents raptors from staging on power/utility lines.

  • Firefly affects UV and Visible range of avian vision — 360nm/560nm wavelengths.
  • Firefly spins and sways in even 3 mph winds, increasing effectiveness.
  • Firefly reflects UV and Visible light, even in low light/fog conditions.
  •  Site specific mounting hardware for airstrips and surrounding area.
  • Developed and field tested by avian biologist.

Target Birds: All bird species.

Install Bird Diverter Bird Control Products:  For bird control around airports, the Firefly can be installed on power lines, towers, structures and other staging areas where it will spin and sway in the breeze.

Material:  Acrylic Plastic 1/8 “, 3” by 5” flapper -impact-resistant and UV-stabilized. (–30 F. to 160 F.)   Fluorescent reflective/luminescent properties produce 10-12 hour glow-in-the dark light feature.  Stainless Steel Ball Bearing Swivel system is salt-spray and weather resistant.

Ease of Installation:  Easy. The Firefly is installed using Crocodile Clamp or S Hook from overhead wires or optional Swivel Brackets.

How It Works:  The FireFly bird diverter incorporates motion, reflectivity, and light emissions to alert the birds to an upcoming obstruction. This bird diverter rotates in 3+ mph wind conditions, increasing visibility to migrating birds with both night and day reflectors. These unique features make the Firefly a viable deterrent for reducing bird-strikes.
