Southern California Edison (California) December 3, 1997 In the warehouse, the performance has been exactly what we wanted with the Bye-Bye Birdie "Power Wing" model . We had a bird problem---we do not have a bird conflict with birds anymore. We also placed the "Ninja" model on a power pole, where birds had landed and caused circuit outrages. We wanted to do this so birds would not cause circuit problems as well as to co-exist with our power lines. Chap Vineyard(California) October 20, 1997 It worked. The birds damaged the end of the rows pretty badly, but in the middle part (where I installed Bye-Bye Birdie), it was definitely better than last year. Coconut Grove Sailing Club Vice Commodore's Report (Florida) January 13, 1998 Vice Commodore's Report Nobody had found a way to keep birds off boats 100%. However, the problem may be reduced to a more acceptable level. Bye-Bye Birdie, Power Wing is reputedly effective, covers a 70 foot radius. From the letter of Mr. and Mrs. Besse (New York) June 25,1998 Earlier this year, I bought a "Bye-Bye Birdie Power" from the Wing in the Rigging (WI) catalogue. It's 100% effective protecting on 22' sloop, moored off our camp in Shanesteles lake, from the early Summer's nesting barn swallows, that for year have fouled our deck and rigging despite all our effort. We've never been more pleased with a new and unknown product. Thank you.
