One Shot
The cost effectve automatic bird dispersal system

One-Shot is very effective in dispersing birds, is humane, inoffensive and does not endanger their lives. Importantly, natural bird distress calls played back at a natural sound level are not intrusive and often remain unnoticed in places where the public is present.

Proven technology, unique to Scarecrow, means that birds will not habituate to the One-Shot bird dispersal system, programmed to play the distress calls of up to six urban bird species, sequence ‘shuffled’. Each call is of 45 seconds duration.

Fully Automatic

One-Shot  is fully automatic and random play in use and will work 24 Hrs a day without human intervention. A daylight sensor is also included and can be programmed to cancel the playback sequence from Dusk to Dawn.

One-Shot may be powered from 110V/235V ac mains supplies, or batteries fully maintained by Solar Panels or other recharging systems.In addition to normal random timed playback, One-Shot can be set up to play when any movement is detected using the optional Infra Red sensor (P.I.R.). 

It is also possible to connect a remote light sensor, in case the main unit cannot be installed in natural light. A long line transformer can also be included which allows for extra speakers to be connected.


One-Shot incorporates facilities to beat even more bird dispersal challenges:

Provision for species seasonal migration and roosting events; automatic and random playback dispersal sequences have been increased by the addition of easily selectable RE-INFORCE and SEVERE programmes for these periods.
Provision to change the length of a species dispersal call broadcast; some birds take longer to respond than others, often changing with environments. 
Improved enclosure mounting security by use of concealed surface fixing.
