Scare’m Hawk System
Two great kites for the price of one now come in this pack. Switch and choose for optimum effect. Research has proved that frequent changes in types and methods of bird scaring is the most effective way to keep the birds off your valuable crops. The Hawk, a natural predator and the fast moving Delta make a very good team.
The full kit consists of:
- Hawk kite
- 7 metre telescopic pole with rubber caps at each end
- synthetic heavy duty ground post
- 2-part 8-plaite 2mm Braided Cord with swivel
- securing line for anchoring during heavy winds
- ground disk to prevent pole from burying itself into soft ground
- comprehensive instructions

We bought a kit in March of 2014 to rid our dairy feed bunks from crows tearing through plastic covers. The results were instant. We put the hawk kite up for about a month and it kept crows away for almost 2 years. Just put it out again last week and not a crow in site again.
A second kite which was larger and multi colored took care of about 100 wild turkeys that were eating at the corn silage bunk.

The roof of Eurotunnel’s Passenger Terminal Building at Folkestone has a tensile canopy roof, which was constantly soiled by seagulls. This year was particularly bad, with many chicks hatching on site combined with a dry summer. Cleaning would only keep the canopy looking good for a few days.
I found Scarem kites on line and bought the orchard model, with a longer pole to fly the kite higher. We fabricated a mounting bracket to clamp to the roof.
The kite was installed before the last clean a month ago, and the result is remarkable. There has been no further soiling and no seagulls perch on the roof. I can thoroughly recommend the kites, not just for crops as originally designed, but for buildings too.

Over the last few years Rooks, Crow’s and Jackdaws have become more of a problem digging in our meadows and rough’s. Although away from play the damaged areas create a poor visual impact around the course. We have tried a number of options to disperse the feeding birds but all have seemed to have attracted more than it has scared or the sight of greenkeepers charging around the coures waving arms and other items in the air haver’t gone down very well with the golfers…
So with all ideas used, and failed, we fortunately discovered the Scare’m Hawk Kite. FANTASTIC the answer to a greenkeepers prayer, no birds and no noise to disrupt play. The Hawk kite worked from the moment we let it fly, no birds anywhere near and more importantly no disruption to playing golfers , and to prove it’s worth when the kite has been removed due to weather the feathery digging machines have quickly returned. Regular, moving every 3 -5 days, seems to keep the birds on the wing.
The kite proved it’s realistic look when the club received a phone call from a local resident who wished to inform us that a bird of prey was stuck in one of our trees, when told her it was a kite she replied, “I’m not sure if it’s a Red Kite or Buzzard”, ” No madam it’s a kite used to scare birds” A very quiet phone line followed.. Very impressed, great service and a product that does what it says on the tin!

Hello, Can I say thank you for your very quick delivery of my 2 scarem kites, ordered on Monday and delivered on Tuesday morning at 7.30am.
I put them in 2 pea fields of about 14 acres each which seemed to have all the pigeons in England on them and have not seen one since, can’t believe how well they work.

What a superb product. Having always suffered from pigeon damage on our cabbage crop, we setup 2 Hawks on the 15 acre field as a last resort. The result was unbelievable, with virtually 100% of the crop untouched by pigeons and a very happy customer. I could not recommend your kites enough and I have since invested in many more.
