[TowerTalk] Ridding Birds from the Tower

Ultra sonic projectors or yelpers of one kind or another have been mentioned 
for ridding birds from towers. I have looked on-line and see a myriad of 
these things.  I would like to buy one.  Did I also read that the sound is 
inaudible to humans?  That ALSO is what I need as it would have to be used 
at night many times.  If anyone has any direct or first hand knowledge of 
one of these please get back to me off the reflector with the info. My 
problem is with the osprey (sea birds) that like to roost on my tower day 
and night while they survey the waters around here for prey which they brink 
back to the top of the tower to eat. They make and leave a huge mess every 
day. You can't shoot them as some might suggest, nor would I or could I as I 
am in a residential neighborhood ... with bird lovers galore. I just want 
them on someone else's home/tree/roof/tower anywhere else but here.  - Mike

Mike, Different freqs for different varmints.  I like the the ultrasonic
yelper function on my repellers that comes on and off in a pseudo random
manner.  Birds don't like it. They will get used to nearly anything that is
relatively constant.  Tangle foot is a good thing too.

I'm wondering if the supersonic squawker devices that are purported to repel
4 legged vermin might work for birds too.
