This scarer will save you money because it only costs $39 and it is guaranteed to work. “You saved my Roses from Parrot and Cockatoo damage” Wendy Burgin, Riverside Drive, Warburton, Vic. This full size replica, of a hovering hawk, is made of tough weatherproof plastic, so it lasts. “I have solved my bird problem” said N. Bond, Braybrook, Vic. You can protect your stone & pome fruits, nut, berry or broad acre crops on calm or windy days because you suspend your hawk over or near your crop. No power, wind or poison needed which protects the environment. Your Hawk Bird Scarer looks real so it scares all birds including Cockatoos, Crows, Galahs, Corellas, Starlings, Blackbirds, Bulbuls, Jays, Mynahs, Silver Eyes & Parrots. Other uses: Stops Pigeons, Swallows and Seagulls roosting on boats, sheds, verandahs and roofs. Scares ducks off dams & swimming pools. But does not give 100% results for Sparrows. (Aust.)
