Bird Flu Prevention
Protect Your Facilities from Bird Flu
As most of you have heard by now, there has been an outbreak of Avian Influenza here in the states. We are here to help give your operations an edge to keep Bird Flu from affecting your operations.
How does Bird Flu Spread?

Direct Contact: Birds become infected through direct contact with saliva, nasal secretions, or feces of infected birds.

Contaminated Surfaces: The virus can survive in bird droppings and on surfaces like feed, water, equipment, and cages, spreading the disease when healthy birds come into contact with these.

Aerosol Transmission: The virus can spread through the air in enclosed or crowded spaces, such as poultry farms.

Migratory Birds: Wild migratory birds, particularly waterfowl, often act as carriers, spreading the virus to domestic birds as they travel.

What animals are susceptible?

Poultry: Symptoms are sudden death, respiratory issues, digestive issues, decreased appetite, and decreased egg production.

Swine: Respiratory illness, potentially leading to fever, lethargy, coughing, loss of appetite, and even death.

Bovine: Cows sick with HPAI may have diarrhea, fever, decreased milk production, decreased appetite, and discoloration of milk.

How Avitrol can help Prevent Bird Flu

Avitrol works as a chemical frightening agent to deter wild bird flocks.


Here's how it functions:

Ingestion by Birds: Wild birds ingest the 4-aminopyridine treated bait while feeding.

Neurological Effects: The chemical affects the wild bird's central nervous system, causing erratic behaviors such as distress calls, erratic flight patterns, and convulsions.

Scaring the Flock: These distress behaviors and sounds alarm other birds in the flock.
The frightened birds perceive the area as dangerous and typically leave the site.

Mortality: While Avitrol is designed to act as a flock deterrent, some birds that ingest the bait may die due to the effects of the chemical.

Avitrol is a Restricted Use Pesticide, it requires a license to purchase!

If you do not have a license, you need to call a professional applicator
