How to Deter Osprey from Electrical Towers



Vultures congregating on electrical transmission towers and osprey nesting can cause millions of dollars in damage to the towers. Beyond that, the impact on environmental health can extend for miles beyond the tower. Bird Deterrent Technologies has developed an effective, durable effigy system that will mitigate vultures and osprey from nesting on electrical transmission towers.
The BDT patent-pending effigy system is the first solution to effectively deter ospreys from nesting and vultures from congregating on electrical transmission towers with minimal repetitive costs. If you’re looking for a long-term solution to minimize the population of vultures and nesting osprey then our effigy solution is for you.












Deterring Vultures from Transmission Towers
BDT provides Bird Deterrent products to safely and effectively remove vultures from roosting on power line or any other structures that may be housing vulture roosts.
Unsightly vultures congregate on electrical transmission towers causing massive amounts of damage to the towers. They also create a dramatic environmental hazard for those that have to work on the tower and those who live nearby. BDT calculates the number and position of our patent-pending vulture effigies for optimum coverage of the tower. Then, our certified installers will place the vulture effigies on the site to mitigate the vulture roosting problem.
Deterring Osprey from Transmission Towers
BDT provides bird deterrents for osprey or any other birds from nesting on powerline towers or any other structure where their nests may pose delays in maintenance services due to their federal protection status during the nesting season.
Electric companies with transmission towers that host osprey for nesting season endure countless hours of lost revenue and expenses of monitoring both the beginning and the ending of the nesting season. Tower maintenance is restricted significantly during these months of breeding and nesting seasons. BDT offers two types of eagle effigies, roosting in a nest and standing in its territorial ground.
The BDT Osprey Deterrent solution includes the eagle effigy, all of the hardware necessary for installation, including the humane deterrence sign for the gate at each site, and installation.
The BDT Vulture Deterrent solution includes multiple vulture effigies, all of the brackets and hardware necessary for installation, the human deterrence signage, and installtion.
