Pestgo Non Toxic Bird Deterrent Gel

PESTGO is an inert Bird Deterrent Gel suitable for preventing the colonization of most types of birds like feral pigeons, starlings, sparrows etc. PESTGO has particular value in pharmaceutical and chemical plants, food processing factories, airports, aircraft maintenance areas, sensitive defence establishments, ports and railway establishments, hotels and electronic industries, where bird droppings can cause untold damage.

Advantages of PESTGO

  • PESTGO is inert and contains no poison so no damage is done to birds that may momentarily touch the surface through the process of discovery. Furthermore, they can not get stuck to the material.
  • PESTGO has no limitation of use, for it can be applied to surfaces whether angled, flat, rough or smooth as its mass remains consistent and static over a temperature range of (-) 30 degree C to (+) 120 degree C.
  • PESTGO is water repellent, insoluble and immiscible and can be considered as a water proofing agent to surfaces, thereby preventing such conditions as frost damage, moss growth etc.
  • PESTGO is colourless when applied and merely gives a sheen to the surface covered.

Q.1 What is PESTGO?

Ans. PESTGO is an inert Bird Deterrent Gel suitable for preventing the colonization of most of birds like feral pigeons, crow, parrots, starlings, sparrows etc.

Q.2 How does PESTGO works?

Ans. PESTGO is in the form of a gel which when applied creates an unstable surface unacceptable to birds & thus deters their presence.

Q.3 Does PESTGO is toxic or non-toxic?

Ans. The product is totally harmless to birds and human beings alike, as it is non-toxic and odourless. PESTGO is inert and contains no poison so no damage is done to birds that may momentarily touch the surface through the process of discovery. Furthermore, they can not get stuck to the material.

Q.4 On which surface the PESTGO can be applied?

Ans. On all surfaces PESTGO can be used as it has no limitation of use can be applied to all surfaces whether metalic, concrete, angled, flat, rough or smooth.

Q.5 How much quantity is required?

Ans. At 3mm thickness, 3 ltrs of PESTGO gel will cover an area of approximately 1 sq. metre + 10%.

Q.6 In which industry it is useful?

Ans. PESTGO has particular value in pharmaceutical and chemical plants, food processing factories, Textiles, Automobile, Electronics, Paper, Tyre, Oil Industries airports, aircraft maintenance areas, Army Workshops sensitive defence establishments, Railway Sheds and workshops, communication system, hotels and highrise Buildings, where bird droppings can cause untold damage. Bridge tiles, Chimneys, Copings, Ledges, Rails, and many other areas where pigeons and other birds may roost are potential sites for PESTGO treatment.

Q.7 What are the properties of PESTGO?

Ans. (1) PESTGO has no limitation of use, for it can be applied to surfaces whether angled, flat, rough or smooth as its mass remains consistent and static over a temperature range of (-) 30 degree C to (+) 120 degree C.

(2) PESTGO is water repellent, insoluble and immiscible and can be considered as a water proofing agent to surfaces, thereby preventing such conditions as frost damage, moss growth etc.

(3) PESTGO is colourless when applied and merely gives a sheen to the surface covered.

Q.8 Is there any pretreatment required before application.

Ans. Surface to be treated should be cleaned of debris, loose flakes, bird droppings, general dirt to expose firm surfaces. 3 Litres of PESTGO will totally cover an area of approximately 1 sq. metre (say 11sq.feet), or two square metres if applied in 1.5" strips. However application in 1.5" strips form is advisable only if nature of site and gravity of bird problem allows.

Q.9 How to apply PESTGO GEL?

Ans. A brief detail of the method of application i.e. how to apply this material is given below which comprise the following steps:
(1) Clean the surface where PESTGO is to be applied and make the surface dust-free.

(2) Apply the sealant first evenly on the surface and let it completely dry out for atleast 60 minutes. It will increase the bonding of PESTGO GEL with the surface and subsequently the performance of PESTGO GEL. Please note that the sealant is to be applied only on porous surfaces like brick, concrete, cemented or filed surfaces. The ratio of Sealant to PESTGO GEL is one Litre of sealant for 4 Ltrs of PESTGO GEL.

(3) On the surface where the area is cleaned, now apply PESTGO GEL evenly maintaining a layer of approx 3 mm with the help of a small iron patti or scrapper (small rectangular handy piece of metal generally used by painters). ON METAL SURFACES LIKE ANGLE IRONS, TRUSSES ETC. SEALANT IS NOT USED.

Application

PESTGO is in the form of a gel which when applied creates an unstable surface unacceptable to birds & thus deters their presence. PESTGO is most easily applied. It can be pumped on to surface with the use of a suitable pumping machine.

Damage And Disease Birds Cause

1. Property Damage

Bird droppings deface and slowly deteriorate the surface of buildings, monuments, statues etc. This is caused by the acidic secretions of fungi that live within the droppings and have a corrosive effect.

2. Product And Packaging Damage

Dropping in factories, warehouses and underloading bays permanently damage products and packaging.

In aircraft hangers, automotive assemblies, railway assemblies/maintenance, droppings will mark and spoil metal and painted surfaces, often permanently.

3. Disease

Birds are the cause of many human diseases. Diseases like histoplasmosis and ornithosis (respiratory diseases) are caused from the fungus which lives in dry bird droppings (pigeons & sparrows).

The bacteria causing salmonellosis (food poisoning) is also found in bird droppings.

4. Odours, Insects And Noise

Accumulating and decaying bird droppings create offensive odour and attract a wide variety of files and other disease carrying insects. The early morning 'Coo-cooing' or high pitch noise of birds are of annoyance particularly so to patients and others who need rest and peace.
